    Wimbledon Entertainer has just restocked it's Legends cubbyhole with........Cosmos and Seaspray. Welcome to last July and thanks a bunch.

    I did at least see and pick up a Sky Shadow out of sheer boredom and note the mountain of £17.99 RC Squeeks piled up by the doors. I guess that Kid-appeal character just didn't work out right? Only room for one BB8/Wall-E rip off at Xmas.

    The Entertainer in Amersham have a good stack of Six Shot (£34.99), but no Sky Shadow. They also had POTP Legends at £11, but only Windcharger and Skrapnel left now ;) . Also Seaspray and Cosmos at £11.20 each.

    Lakeside Entertainer have Black Shadows (labelled £39.99 but ring through at £34.99). There was a lone PotP Windcharger left, so at least they're making an appearance.

    A good half dozen or so? And it wasn't manic (most seemed drawn to the many, many Squeeks on display). Are they actually open on New Year's Day!?

    Lakeside itself is, its not a Sunday for new years day so they should be open as it doesnt come under their usual self righteous keep Sunday special spiel.

    Manchester Entertainer had 1 Slash and 1 Shrapnel as well as some TR Legends and nothing else from Generations. They did have 1 each of Leader Megatron and Prime reduced to, I think 29.99? About 10 each of TLK Barricade and Grimlock, no others from their size classes but they were reduced.

    Stockport usually has the best stock in the area to be fair - if there's something I really want I'll venture out that way instead of the closer Bolton TRU.

    Stockport by name Stockport by nature. I have found that to be true in many things, non tf toy related aswell. Just need to get there which is not the easiest.

    After relieving them of Slash, Manchester Arndale Entertainer were left with two Skrapnel and a Windcharger. Didn't get to look in the Oldham store because both shopping centers were closed.

    Edit to Add: Sadly, the local Poundlands seem to have run out of those smaller transforming robots with the swords, so Slash might need to steal Slug's sword.

    Bought the last Beachcomber and a Slash from Harlow Entertainer, all that remains is another Slash, Windcharger and 2 Shrapnels. May go back for Windcharger when I have more money.
