A little OT - Jake and the Neverland Pirates merch in Oz?

[5ofus]

My three boys are NUTS for Jake and the Neverland Pirates They watch it and play it on the website whenever possible (limited screen time otherwise they'd never stop!) and then role-play it most other times. I'm always Izzy, because I'm a girl , DS1 and DS2 take turns at Jake and Cubby and DS3 is always designated as Scully, the bird DH is Captain Hood

Anyway, I've ordered the two older boys a stuffed Jake from the US that they'll be getting for Christmas, but their mania is pretty full on so I know they'd love other Jake stuff for Chrissy as well. The problem? I can't seem to find any Jake stuff in Australia Am I looking in the wrong places or do I have to stick to ebay? Disneystore.com has a couple of things, but I always baulk at buying from there due to the exorbitant shipping costs.

It's a Disney animated show. Jake is, obviously the main character, and he has a couple of sidekicks. It's based in Neverland, but I've never seen Peter Pan or Wendy in it, although I think PP at least has been in some of the episodes. Each week Cpt Hook takes something from the kids and they have to get it back. It's kinda like Dora, but far, far less annoying and with a much better theme

5ofus, my son is also a big fan. I haven't seen any merchandise in oz. Wasn't too keen on the postage from the disney store either. If I see anything I will be sure to let you know.

We had two Jake addicts last year. I got them Disney Store t-shirts shipped as there is nothing in NZ. Well the cost of postage was nearly double the shirts. We bought the twins a shirt each and the CD of the music. It did make their pirate birthday party though to have Jake music to bounce around to but I'd never ship Disney Store to NZ again.
