What We Want — Action Transfers

Here's a list of transfer sets we're looking for. Have you got any?
Please contact us via the Facebook Action Transfers Page if you see anything here you can help with!

Also… SPLAT is truly International, with agents all over the World — but we are currently looking for contacts in France, Italy & Japan. Would you be interested in helping out? If so, please get in touch!

And if you live, or are planning to visit, outside the UK, then (by popular demand) there's a handy shopping list of items to look for at Wanted — Country by Country.
