Series 2 figures-yay!
« on: March 04, 2012, 17:35:51 »
I finally got my hands on some of these yesterday.   :woohoo:
I have seen them for the past two weeks on toyshop websites but sadly none near me.  :'(  None in Toys r Us or local toymaster.   :wall:
Eventually found a toy 'superstore' Smyth's whose Playmo-range was nothing exciting from the website and the guy on the phone said they had girls but not boys.   :hmm:
Went along anyway, felt all the girls bags (it wasn't quite so embarrassing as other parents were also feeling 'moshi monsters'   ??? ).  Asked where their playmo aisle/section was.  It comprised of 3 sets: some police superset thing (half price  ;)), the paddling pool and the top agents car.  Hidden behind a star wars thing was the boys bags!  The shop assistants didn't even know they were there.   ::)
Anyway, this is what I came away with:   :love:


I love them all.  I have been taking ballet for the last 13 years so ballet dancers were a must have.  Top tip:  The ballet dancers have stickier out skirts then the cheerleaders when feeling the packets which is a quick way to tell the difference.   ;)  I also the the detail of the ballet shoes.   :inlove:
I also got a spare tutu and 3 spare hair ribbons-I'm pleased because they're always handy.   ;)


Please see this topic for my ballerinas in action!

Hope everyone can get these soon,
Verity.

Thanks for the feeling tips.  I am waiting patiently for the ballerinas to come to the states.

so are members going to weigh the bags this time and was it very accurate last time? I think I will  buy a gram scale and try to speed up the identifying process
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Save your money, Ras-no need for a scale, they're real easy to "feel". :)
