What we're hearing
Wanted: what people can't find
We keep an ear out for where people are struggling to find a toy, and an eye on the shops we've checked. This is what we've seen recently. When the same name keeps coming up, we look for it. We do not sell the toys.
- A public report lands: someone in the UK can't find a named toy.
- We keep that quote, with the date, and group it with the other reports of the same toy.
- We watch checked shops for that name. When we see stock, a free page names the shop and the date. The shop's listing is a day pass or Pro.
Reports below are public UK collector quotes, mostly September 2026. A quote is not a stock check.
Pokémon TCG
Pokémon TCG
Five reports in a few days, all stuck on the same set, plus one older ask for a different box. We're looking for these at checked UK shops. The 30th Celebration note is where that check is written down.
30th Celebration — ETBs, binders, tins, anything
Where those reports say people looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“Is there any restocks or redrops of anything tomo in any shops as everywhere sold out everywhere”
Reported 2026-09-18
“Queued outside of a shop and within 10 mins of opening everything got sold out… after an hour of queueing got turned away… I'm gutted”
Reported 2026-09-16
“I drove to another town on the 16th only to find myself in a 150+ queue at a shop… by the time it was my turn to go in they had run out… 3-4 hours gone.”
Reported 2026-09-19
Collectors say they've checked every major high-street chain and still can't find stock.
Reported 2026-09-18
“My local newsagents said he isn't getting anything at all until November and a shop had two shipments, all sold out within an hour… I'm looking for literally anything.”
Reported 2026-09-19. November is their quote, not a date we have checked.

Where this report says they looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“i've literally called and searched everywhere… so i don't even know when to go in🫠”
Reported 2026-06-27. Different set from 30th Celebration, same kind of stuck.

Jellycat
Jellycat
These are the names people say they cannot catch. Snow Dragon shows up twice, so it stays as one toy with two reports. We're looking for each name at checked shops, not on the resale sites the quotes mention.
Sacha Snow Tiger, Smudges, Snow Dragon, Malachy Dragon
Where these reports say people looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“So many of the ones I actually want are either constantly out of stock, incredibly difficult to catch, or retired. Sacha snow tiger is probably my biggest example, but also the smudges, snow dragon and malachy dragon.”
Reported 2026-09-05
“Jellycat just emailed me 4 days later to say my order is being cancelled due to stock issues. They are making me pay £7.50 postage on a £12 keychain… second time.”
Reported 2026-09-11. This one is Snow Dragon specifically: the official shop cancelled after the order.
Brooke Otter
Where this report says they looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“trying to track down a Brooke otter, anyone know anywhere who has one in stock?? Located in UK but if item can be sent UPs / fedex etc no issue”
Reported 2026-09-14
Fizzleskip Luxe Bunny
Where this report says they looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“looking for the fizzleskip luxe bunny the one from the UK… running out of ideas”
Reported 2026-09-14. They asked for the UK exclusive.
Large Rose Dragon
Where this report says they looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“cannot find it anywhere, I have searched up and down and it is just so impossible to find!!”
Reported 2026-09-19
Bizzlestomp
Where this report says they looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“was really hoping to pick out Bizzlestomp in person… he was sold out everywhere 😭. So I panic bought him from their own site instead”
Reported 2026-09-19. They found it on Jellycat's own site after shops were sold out.

NeeDoh / squishy
NeeDoh and Squishmallows
Two reports are the same NeeDoh hunt: nothing in the UK for a while, and someone already refreshing shop sites by hand. A third names the advent calendar. Squishmallows is a separate toy in the same kind of search. The checked-shop note for NeeDoh is NeeDoh restock UK.
NeeDoh, including the 2026 advent calendar
Where these reports say people looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“Whats the latest on the UK needoh stock? No 1 has had any for ages! Anyone had any luck? It has all gone quiet 🤫”
Reported 2026-09-10
“how to get my hands on some needohs in the UK? Already checking the websites each day.”
Reported 2026-08-18. This is the same hunt as the line above, six weeks earlier.
A collector flagged the 2026 advent calendar was back in stock, with a discount code — the stockist is part of Pro.
Reported 2026-09-01. We don't name that shop on this page.
Squishmallows Mallow Moods
Where this report says they looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“For those who're looking for Mallow Moods in the UK, they're back in stock!”
Reported 2026-09-12. That report names a shop we have not checked, so it is a lead, not a confirmation.

Pop Mart / Labubu
Labubu and Pop Mart
One report is people who cannot buy Labubu in a UK store and are seeing resale prices. Another is a Pop Mart series someone did find by going to a city stockist. We're looking for both at checked shops. The Labubu note is Labubu restock UK.
Labubu in the UK
Where this report says people looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“Popmart aren't currently selling in stores in the UK"; "get them for £20… a lot on there for £25 or 30”
Reported 2025-06-29. The prices in that quote are what they saw on resale, not a price we charge.
My Little Pony series
Where this report says they looked is part of Pro. See the stockists
“out of stock… went to the nearest city today with a stockist… they have it thankfully!”
Reported 2026-03-19. They found a physical stockist. We still watch the checked shops for the next time it goes.
