    Hi my 7 year has requested sharks and shark surprises from Santa.
    We already have some books and a game on his tablet. He's looking for a megalodon figure, the only half decent one I've seen is on Amazon and quite expensive for one small figure. If anyone has any ideas for "shark surprises" it would be greatly appreciated.

    Kind regards.

    Our lad was mad for sharks for a while we got him a big poster for his wall from Amazon...it shows all breeds of shark and where in the world they are.
    Books and a dvd and we Also got him a shark game it was hungry hippos but sharks instead he loved that.
    For his birthday we picked up a real shark tooth from amazon and don’t think it was very expensive but as a 7 year he taught it was “cool”


    ....... actually the shark tooth was purchased on eBay ....

    Pretty sure I saw this shark toy in Ikea; https://www.ikea.com/ie/en/products/childrens-ikea-products/children-3-7/toys-play/bl%C3%A5haj-soft-toy-shark-art-30373588/
    Have no idea if he's too old for the likes or not, though.

    Think he might be a bit too old for that but thank you anyway.

    He has a few books that cover the different breeds and where they are, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot out there tbh, Smyth's have a few figures but not much. And thanks for the other suggestions.

    Have you already looked at the Schleich Figures?

    This might be a little on the expensive side, but I have seen similar in TK Max at discounted prices!

    I'm trying to keep him away from anymore cards, he's already into match attack and is getting more for Christmas. I'll keep looking, there is a lot of stuff that would be coming from China so not ordering that as it wouldn't be here on time.
