over the summer holidays we popped into tk maxx a few times.

ds1 of course picked out several things that he really, really, really neeeeeeeeeded.
i told him "christmas!"

only now, of course, they don't have them any longer. I could just cry.
i couldn't get them at the time without him seeing, and of course it's all bloody discontinued stuff isn't it, so i can't get it anywhere.

he is going to be so disappointed when he doesn't get his bloody pokemon projector.
damn me

post what they are on here then if they are spotted we can let you know.

Maybe you could ring around a few of the nearest stores to see if they have them?

he wanted a pokemon projector. it was a biggish thing, red and white, with round cards that had pictures on and it would project them onto the wall

a megabloks king arthur big plastic ball thing that had a dragon in it (has to be q silver or gold dragon)

something called monster rock Hmm i actually can't even remember what that is... i will have to ask him

a giant beetle, i think that was a big toy beetle that could move around

the monster rock and the giant beetle he probably won't be so worried about, it's the projector and the dragon that he most wanted

I'll keep a lookout too. I hope you manage to get them - it'll be all that more satisfying to see him so happy if you do :)
