I spoke to them on Friday as I had a problem with my funhouse. I asked if they'd be getting any more of the balls, etc and was told no and that my best bet would be to try stores over the next few weeks rather than websites. Not totally sure about that.

A problem? is it something we should all be checking for before wrapping them up?

Ooh sorry, I did post the other day about it. I suggested that people check the funhouse when they get it as mine arrived last week and it had 2 bathrooms in it instead of the bathroom/bedroom that it's meant to have. Contacted character online who told me they can't just send a replacement sticker to go in the relevant room so it's a case of returning it for a replacement - which could be a nightmare as we get closer to christmas due to the high demand.

Hopefully it was just a blip and not a faulty batch. Good luck to you all in your hunt for everything. Lets just hope our darlings actually like these after all this effort

Hi, Just wanted to 'unlurk' to thank everyone for their contributions to this thread .
After gratefully following every lead and link supplied, some successfully and many more not I now have a completed collection of accessories, add-ons etc woohoo!!!!:j:j

Today I picked up 2 accessory sets that I had ordered from John Lewis online for collection from their Bluewater store. Unfortunately, the sets consisted of 2 different coloured carrier sets and no bed so I decided to check out their toy section (just in case);) and found they had several hamsters, some skateboard and surfboard sets and plenty of the carriers and beds/blankets in loads of different colours.

Went to CS and they allowed me to swap the ones I'd purchased for a matching set in pink which is DD's fav

HTH someone and thanks again to all contributors :T

MONDAY 2/11

Here's the update:

Today (probably this afternoon) they are going to list some accessory packs (beds / carriers) BUT NOTHING ELSE.

They are NOT getting another delivery in until 18/12 which will be listed on 19/12. From this they will ONLY be listing adventure balls, surfboard and skateboard and probably some more accessory packs. They are NOT NOT NOT getting any spiral slides, wheels or cars BEFORE Christmas. They said the only chance you have of getting these is from your local shops...

Update:

They are hoping to get some stock in today HOWEVER they are inundated with calls so if they do put them on the site, it won't be till around 7pm.

They do still have houses and hamsters in stock which ARE already listed on their site.

They are hoping to get some accessory packs (carriers / beds) and POSSIBLY some spiral ramps, wheels and cars. They have definitely got an order allocation of these add ons, BUT they are not sure whether they will get them today or sometime over the next couple of weeks. Best option is to go on their site and join their mailing list then you will get advanced warning of any further stock.

Funny thing was that she asked me if I was Maximouse...oops...anyway she was lovely and very helpful and she said it was okay for me to post this info. Just please don't ring them as they are inundated with queries!

The car / garage is quite readily available at serveral places online. I think out of all the add ons, it is the least favourite.

OH managed to pick up one of the car/garage playset to go with the funhouse (it turned up from Play - didn't realise he had ordered it) so we tried it out yesterday - it was hilarious - the hammie gets in to it and drives around - thought it was pretty cool!

toyrus in Oxford have loads of the hamsters and my Dad said they add a full display of the add ons including the ball
