I have e-mailed Amazon as it now says order not going to be with me untill the 16th of October. I just want to make sure they definatly have stock of this as I can imagine they are being inundated with orders for this at the mo.

I am not bothered that it will take untill then just definatly don't want to get an e-mail appologising that they can't forfill my order especially now I have bought 3 games from Bandai which took less that 2 days to arrive.
I will let you know the reply.

thomas and friends and the tweenies one have turned up today
going back to order the rest of the games, my son will get a new game each 3 months until the following xmas or when he has done something great.

i also have the feeling that once all the bubble machines have been sold they may have a look at all the potential new customers for any new games.

i mean if 100,000 new customers came along, you would have thought it worth putting out a couple more games before writing it off completely.

Thanks for that! I was wondering about that.. as I have had that happen before.. ordered 2 spacehoppers for my daughters in the summer.. and a smaller thomas one for my little boy.. girls got theirs within a couple of weeks.. no thomas one.. got email saying it had been delayed for 2 weeks... then after 2 weeks another email delaying it another 2 weeks then eventually informed me they could not get it and cancelled it... this took 6 or 7 weeks altogether till i knew i wasn't getting it... and my poor little boy had no spacehopper.. not good!
I will be fuming if i don't get the console... as i now have 5 lots of software for it!!!!!!! lol
Would be grateful to know what they say to you trinny! :rolleyes:

wow thanks got this for my 18month old who's mad on "Tubbie" & "Choo choo" as he calls them, it's usually the first thing he says when he wakes up!
Though I doubt they'll arrive before we go on holiday.
I do a daily survey and have won at least 5 £5 amazon vouchers

Looks like a standard letter to me so still none the wiser

I called them this morning as I was worried about that too.
They didn't inspire confidence, but said we "should" be getting in stock in to dispatch between the 6th and 16th but there were no guarantees as they were quoting the manufactureres estimated time.

I've already got a couple of games for it from Bandai and was worried I'd have no console to use them with, so I've cancelled and ordered them direct with Bandai.
Cost me £4 postage more with an extra game but thought it was enough of a bargain even at that.

Could you please let me have the number to contact Amazon? I can't find it anywhere.

Thanks.
