Sunshine Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I am looking to buy an annual for a boy of nine who lives in the UK but I do not know which one to choose. Hpw about the Dandy, Beano, Marvel heroes or the Transformer annual. I am a bit out of touch so can any one recommend one for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suze01 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Why don't you get him a French Bande Dessiné annual - he's probably doing French at school (I'am assuming he's English). They're mostly cartoon with just a few words and are indreciably popular here with all ages. The larger supermarkets have a big selection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre ZFP Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Transformers Annual is this year's 'must have' the rest are a bit well, dated but having said that, since Dandy and Beano are no more (or will stop printing soon) they could be worth a bob or two on Antiques Roadshow 2050. I think the Transformers annual would be best appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 Thank you for all those that posted a reply. It has been sometime since I saw a UK annual and guessing the age group of these against the age of a child is a mind field. Not a problem when mine were children.The Transformers Annual is the one I have chosen. Many thanks for all the help in this and other matters from the Forum readers.
