  • Anyone seen any Thornton mis-shapes recently? None in the 2 stores I go to in the last 2-3 weeks. No spaces for them either! :(

    I've visited 3 different stores this month, my local one more than once and no, no sign of Thornton mis-shapes :eek:

    After reading this thread about the Leapfrog Clickstart Computer games for £2.99, I decided to make a special trip to the Carlisle store, about 60 mile round trip, anyway they did not have the games :mad: but got a pink computer for £24.99 for my niece, bargain price as the pink one in Amazon and toys r us is around £40. If anyone lives near the Carlisle store could they let me know if they ever see the games, I would be very grateful.
