Hooray!
We are also getting a Smyths soon in Stockport, which will be easier to get to than the Oldham branch.

Yay! Now you too can stare at shelves of new Transformers thinking, gosh, those were cheaper when I got them from Star last month.

It is always more enjoyable to get toys off a shelf rather than online. More fun, and also helps avoid some regrettable purchasing decisions. I miss being in toy shops. Soon, soon, when going on public transport doesn't feel suicidal.

Smyths Leeds j27 don't have much in store because it is smaller than the Crown point branch.

Blaster seems okay to me for £27 because he's got a Micromaster sized companion and those were a tenner for a pair a few years back.
But I think this is the new norm and could even rise again given by Christmas a tin of beans will be a fiver and we'll be eating them cold anyway because the oven costs too much to run.

A Smyths is opening end of March in Stockport. Much easier to get to than any other Smyths. It will also be next to Hobbycraft. My wife is a big fan of Hobbycraft.
An opening weekend expedition will be launched come the 25th of March (Uni work permitting).

Hitting the new Smyths first thing tomorrow morning to see what it is like before it gets too busy for Ralphs. Apparently a Tim Hortons has just opened in the same retail park too. Good times lie ahead.

We didn't get this in Kilmarnock and it isn't on the website, but the Jurassic Park TF set has been found in Smyths.

They may shift a few from people who don't know it exists, but it's time to play the game of how quickly will the price drop on it.

Hmmm. Fair point. If it drops to match online retailers and is on shelves when the next film comes on it could ship a few units to more casual fans.

They have now dropped that Jurassic Park set from £118.99 to £99.99. Lets see how much more it will drop.

Accidentally on purpose drove past another Smyths on the way home tonight only to find they've changed their opening hours and were shut.
