Likewise, i'm having to be incredibly picky when it comes to getting these now. The last few Figures i've bought have been loose from america, which has been cheaper then getting them in the main Stockists here. I'm going to preorder Hulk, Beast, Kraven etc from staracionfigures when they have the option to.
Entertainer has had it's awesome moments, when the first few waves from 2010 could be bought in there for £4 (Juggernaut, Wrecker, Archangel, HOM Spidey etc) but they don't get anything in unless Toys R Us have extra stock, which is rare. Now like proteus said it's just kitty prides. They would shift easily if they just got more stock.
Asdas and Sainsbury's have also had their rare occasions where I could get MU for around a fiver, last night I saw Apocalypse in my local for £5 but he was the only one on the shelf. Most of the time they don't even have a label for the figures and don't stock them, which is absurd IMO because they clearly sell out quickly.
The only figure i've bought for £10.99 has been Astonishing Wolverine, and that is because funnily enough it was the cheapest I could obtain him as he is sold out everywhere else and online.

I'm going to try and make the effort to be more active around here, I have no problem in helping other people out if I can. Toyark appears to be the best place for MU fans, it's a shame there isn't a more UK focused forum though as the UK specific threads get lost over time.
