All Hail the Spanish Night.....

Yes, the runaway hit from Spain - Crazy Bones, are evolving this September!!! Crazy Bones Evolution brings new characters to collect, new Album, new Pouch...... The perfect pocket money answer to the impending dark nights ahead!!!!

Changes....

This Sunday sees the last (for now) of our UK member draws, with regular customers now spanning 3 continents we are planning on a range of special discounts to all members, these will change every month, some will be to all registered customers, some will be targeted to customers who have bought from a certain category. The offers will also vary from actual 'Gift Vouchers' to 'Discount Codes', 'Free Gifts' to 'BOGOF's'.......

New horizons.....

Well the kids are gearing up for their new year at school, and yes some have already started out!! Here in Scarborough they go back next week, so good luck to you all in your new classes :).... And especially those who are sitting their exams this year, it's a stressful time....As if being a teenager wasn't hard enough they have to pile on more agony with exams and expectations..!!

Busy time this August has been, both in shop and online :).... We've met some wonderful people and families from all over the UK this summer. This last week (7 days) we've sold a record number (for us) of Uglydolls (just over 40!!), and Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon Cards are doing well too, we're still down to the bare bones of the Mario figures till new stocks arrive, and we're looking forward to some great new arrivals over the Autumn....

With the release of FT Champs, more new Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh, some new Science and Art kits, Hero Clix, and Star Wars Mini's...... The list is endless, but then the horizon seems to last forever :)......So Enjoy.....

Can it get any Uglier??!!!!

Well the Uglydoll reservations have come in!!!! But for some reason they've been flying out this week both in the shop and online, and it looks like we're going to have order more next week!!!!

In with the restock is the 'new for 2008' Puglee..... Think you'll agree she's one cool doll :)..... "Puglee is super smart. How can you tell? You know how they say if you get really good grades, you'll have a better shot at getting a really great job? Well Puglee figured out that a great way to avoid getting a job was to get the worst possible grades ever! Only and F- would do. But here's the problem...Puglee LOVES to read, write and count. So she gets all A's no matter how hard she tries!"

SEE THE 2008 UGLYDOLLS AT TOYTOYJAC....But remember UglyGhost isn't available yet.

Fingers crossed, and next week will be very Ugly!!!

Yes, hopefully next week fresh supplies of Uglydolls will be hitting the UK, so hopefully all the customers waiting patiently for their doll will be satisfied :)...We'll also be giving you free postage too on the ones you enquired about :-D.....The new Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon TCG's will be with us by Wednesday, a few more Crazy Bones Storage Boxes, Crazy Bones, and hopefully a couple of surprises too...

Still awaiting confirmation about the fresh supplies of Mario figures from the land of the rising sun, so we've also enquired about some Final Fantasy Trading Arts vol.2 too (as well as some more vol.1 ones as we're running low), vol.2(see pic.) sees the introduction of some favourites spread across the series, including Auron from FFX super-deformed into 2.5" mini detailed figures..

Thinking about getting a stock of the Star Wars Miniature RPG figures for the shop too, the Halo Clix are doing quite well, and we get plenty of enquires about table top gaming stuff.... We just need a bigger shop now!!! As always you can check here for the latest arrivals at ToyToyjac, with new stock arriving weekly, don't miss out on a world of fun...

Dragons mean?........

Dragons mean?.... (no, forget the Mother-in-law jokes!!!), it's the 1st wave of the Yu-Gi-Oh 2008 collectors tins, out around 20th August.... There will be two tins in the first wave, 'Red Dragon' and 'Stardust Dragon', and each tin will contain (as well as the usual cover mounted 'chase card') 5 boosters (2 Duelist Genesis, 2 Phantom Darkness & 1 Light of Destruction), and also a special 'promo pack' containing a tournament coupon and 3 exclusive cards (from a mini set of 9).... The Duelist Genesis boosters which are included are the first booster set based around the new 5D's rules, these are due for UK release in September, so the people who get the tins early on will be the first to get their hands on them.!!

Mario...Mario...

Yes we're running out of Mario figures again, we've just put another order in for another 200 figures, it's amazing....This will be the 5th shipment of Mario figures!!! Yoshi is currently out of stock, and the others are nearly there!!! With them we're hoping to restock the Final Fantasy Trading Arts sets, and introduce the Trading Arts series 2 figure sets which feature Auron from FFX....Ben 10 trading cards are now in stock, new stock of Liverpool F.C. Monopoly, Mandy MixUp & Crazy Bones also in today......

Due in tomorrow (Tuesday 12th) :- Aqua Beads / Shockinis / WOW Adventure Board game / MagPlanets / Fluxx Family Card Game & more Halo ActionClix, Crazy Bones Albums...... Coming very soon the new Yu-Gi-Oh collectors tins 1st wave 2008 and the new Pokemon Legends Awakened boosters and decks, as well as restock of Uglydolls and the Babybow products....... and come September FTChamps.... it's all happening, and thanks to Mario and his friends we've never been so busy!!!

'Shocking' Arrivals

We've got some cool goodies coming soon, including Shockinis for all you 'toy collecting, customising, cool people'!! Each Shockini has 18 points of articulation, and can be customised to your liking - not only with interchangeable parts, but the creative types amongst you can paint them to your own design, these really are the ultimate desktop buddy..:)..... We're also hoping to get a few World of Warcraft Adventure board games; Aqua Bead sets & MagPlanets (these sound really cool)..

With more supplies of Crazy Bones, Mandy Mix up and Halo ActionClix coming in, as well as more Liverpool F.C. Monopoly!! (We have found the Liverpool F.C. edition of Monopoly has outsold all the other 3 we stock put together.... Looks like Manchester United, Chelsea & Arsenal better watch out this season!!!)....

Ground Control to Major Ben.....

The Ben 10 Collectable Card Game (CCG) hits the streets (well the distributors on 8/8/08), so hopefully, unless our pre-order has been eaten by aliens we should have them in stock sometime next week :)........ Courtesy of Bandai the card game comes in Starter Decks at £7.95 and booster packs at £2.45, the starter decks (obviously) contain everything needed to start playing (40 card deck, playmat & guide), the boosters contain 7 cards (4 common, 2 uncommon & 1 rare) - also approximately 1 in 3 packs contain a super rare!!! so you can customise your playing deck further.

"The Ben 10 Collectable Card Game fuses the action of the TV series by allowing players to transform into their favourite aliens and defeat the forces of evil." Mmmmm.... Sounds a winner :)...

Visitor Numbers up 9%!!!!!

It's official, this year visitor numbers are up 9% to 'Sunny' Scarborough, and who can blame them? In these days of depressing news, of credit crunches and rising bills, it's nice too see people look closer to home for a holiday or break. Scarborough has everything; The Sea, Wonderful Beaches, Award winning Parks, Museums, Superb Restaurants, the World famous 'Stephen Joseph Theatre', in fact something for every age group, and it's only going to get better with the start of the new £130 million development on the North Side, and multi million pound plans elsewhere in the town. Ohhh and if you do find yourself on the East Coast, pop into ToyToyjac and say Hello!! (see map for directions).
