any ideas where I can get a red X robot or wolf - aparently hes a red indian action man figure. - for my nephew

Try Toys R Us, either the shop in Attercliffe or their web site at Toys R Us (http://www.toysrus.co.uk)

Other option would be Ebay (http://www.ebay.co.uk)

isnt that nearmedowhall
arent there any toy shops nearer town?

Not specific toy shops no, there's only the likes of Woolworths down the Moor, Atkinsons, TJ Hughes and the Co Op at Snig Hill that have toy departments.

Gone are the days of Hamleys and Redgates of the early to late 1980s.

tried woolworths and john lewis
no luck
i dont think these toys are in demand/short supply
but then again im not really up on toy sales
