    Sixshot was only found in quantity relatively recently too IIRC, after a few Hamleys sighting earlier this year

    Oh my. For £35, I think I'd grab him. Need to check out the Nottingham one.

    Thank you. I was putting him off due to his cost buying him online, and I recently saw him for £50 in Forbidden Planet in Liverpool which was still too much but made him tempting. Then when I saw this thread, I just had to get him. Bargain.

    And I've also pre-ordered Takara Overlord during the summer.

    Is this real? The Entertainer? Home of £23 Generations deluxes?

    At it's heart, the Entertainer is still a toy discounter buying in stock cheap where it can. The Shelfwarming overpriced Deluxe and Voyager are an aberration.

    If anyone has bought an Entertainer SkyShadow - or is passing by an Entertainer - can they get a picture of the box back and the bar code? Just to satisfy my curiosity that it's not import stock.

    However it's worth noting that Tescos have had Sixshot at the same price so it could well be the wholesaler is blowing the leaders out cheap.

    Since the in-store photos depict Sky Shadow in European packaging, it's not imported stock.

    Not necessarily. It could be remaindered Euro stock imported into the UK.

    On balance you are probably right though!

    had mine for months, great figure.

    Looks like the Sixshots are at the big tescos, the one in Broughton has them at that price too.

    Would imported Euro stock have import stickers, though? Never seen that.

    I *think* I have from one of the usual suspects but can't be 100% sure. I'll keep an eye out from now on though.
