Harry & His Bucket Full of Dinosaurs...HELP!!!

My son (nearly 3) is mad on Harry and his Bucket Full of Dinosaurs and I've been trying desperately to get hold of some toys for him for Christmas. I've managed to get Harry & his car and a two pack, Steggy & Taury but am really struggling to get the other two packs of Pterence & Patsy and Sid & Trike! I've trawlled the internet without any luck, even looking at US retaillers but those who have them are selling them for up to $99 for each pack!!! They retail at £9.99 here and less in the US usually. Does anyone have any bright ideas? I've even emailed Fisher Price but no reply as yet! I would really appreciate any help anyone can give and my son would be landed to open a full set at Christmas!

Thanks in advance!

    I saw some 'Harry and his Bucket Full of Dinosaurs' Toys in Toys 'r' Us last month. It's the only place I have seen them, I didn't pay too much attention to them though. Might be worth a look though.

  • I've seen these in the past in the bigger Mothercare stores. Not sure if they have them in right now though.

    Both the packs you want are on the Toys R Us website but showing as out of stock but the stores normally have loads more stock. If you havent got a store near you I could see if our local one has them - they dont look like they would cost much to post.

    Hi sascasjor, I know it doesn't help you in your quest to find the missing toys but I thought you might like to know that I have a leaflet for a stage show of 'Harry and his Bucket Full of Dinosaurs'. It is in LEAMINGTON SPA (slapbang in the middle of the country - so hopefully not TOO far!) at a theatre called the 'Royal Spa Centre'. It is on Tuesday 25th March 2008 (is that school holidays??) and advertised as 'Harry & his Bucket full of dinosaurs live on stage - a fantastic new show for children aged 3-7 years.' Tickets are £9 for adults, £8 for children and I think you can book them online at www.royal-spa-centre.co.uk, if not, their box office number is 01926 334418. Hope this helps! I'd better get my two some aswell b4 you mse's take all the tickets! :rotfl:

    PS CORRECTION - Sorry! Just been on that site to book my tickets and you cannot book events for 2008 yet! Grrr! Still, keep the info for when you can and keep trying! .....

  • i saw a bucket in Mothercare a few months ago, which had a few small dinosaurs in. It was an official harry and his bucket full of dinosaurs item, but i remember it only had a few of the dinosaurs in.

  • Last year I bought the book in a giftbox with a bucket full of dinosaurs in Borders. It was a really cool gift for my nephew.
    Good luck!
