Urgent help needed!! - PLEASE

[willdew]

I need to locate a golden gun and a 3rd nipple today.

I'm going to a Bond theme party as Scaramanga tomorrow night, and as such the above are necessities. I don't expect to find a golden gun or 3rd nipple in the shops, so am prepared to go a bit "Blue Peter" to get it sorted.

I can't find anywhere that sells toy guns in central London though. I work in the city, but intend doing no work today, so can travel around central London to source one. Can anyone tell me where I can buy toy guns in London?? A spud gun would be ideal. I've phoned Hamleys and looked on the gadget shop web site and am now out of ideas.

Any advice?

Thank you. I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but I should have said - the party's on the HMS Belfast, so I don't think my gun should look too real. If I was going to rob a bank I'd be interested in this sort of thing though.

Surely there will be toy shops open?

A kiddies toy gun spraypainted gold should work a treat if you dont want one that looks TOO real. Worst case scenario pop in to a big tesco.
They "extra" stores (ie the sodding huge ones) are open 24/7 and you should have no problem picking up a kiddies toy gun there day or night.

Im a bit stumped as to where an extra nipple could be procured on short notice though....

Lemming,

I'm thinking the nipple could be improvised with a coco pop and some brown lip stick.

The toy gun is proving very difficult to find. It seems to have come over all un PC to sell toy guns. The supermarket avenue could be good though. I'm also trying to find a Woolworths and think there could be one in Barbican.

Cheers for your help.

Have you tried Selfridges for the toy gun? As for fake nipples, they may well have a prosthesis department, though I'm not sure how you'd go about asking for them...

I had a chat to a doctor friend as they have prosthetic nipples there, but she was reluctant to source one for me. Ethics sh??

As you live in London perhaps you could persuade one of the few million refugees lurking in every underpass and tube station to sell you one. They seem to have few scruples when it comes to kidneys etc so a nipple should be no problem. Whip it off with a stanley knife, dry it in the oven and then affix with a bit of 'cow' gum.

Willdew,

Try any decent (or not so decent) Fancy Dress shop - my 17 year-old had no trouble buying cheap imitations when going as 'Rambo' in November.

Have Fun
