  • UK: where can I find Miguel, Lewis and Shu (not the launchers)

    Hi all

    I wondered if you could helpme as my son wants Shu and Miguel (and my husband wants Lewis) and I've been looking out for them but havent come across them. I dont really want to buy them from ebay unless I really have to cos theyare going for double / triple the original costs.

    I dont want to buy the launchers as they're more expensive and we're on a budget (also my son never bothers with these things)

    I'm in Greater London if that helps and it would make by son's birthday if I could get them .....(i've got some time as its in April)

    thanks in advance

        Sarah,

        I'm afraid it really seems to be pot luck. I found a couple of Lewis' in a big Sainsbury's in Slough (near Langley if you know the area), but that was a couple of months ago. I also saw Lewis at Disney in Reading but again that was before Xmas. I picked up a Shu Launcher in Uxbridge Debenhams around the same time, but when I went last week they had nothing but McQueen and Mater in any of the stores.

        So far I've not seen a Miguel on the shelves. The way I resolved the problem for my son was to buy the this from the Disney store http://www.disneystore.co.uk/disney-...36447/1000012/

        The cars in this set a a bit smaller than the standard single figures, my son was over the moon with it, but it is quite expensive!!

        The other thing would be to see if any other members have those available to sell you in the For Sale forum. It's how i've managed to get a couple of great items from Cars 1 which aren't available in the shops anymore.

        Good luck

        Mark
