"My little boy wants it" , yeah, yeah! ;) :P

ToyDirectory gives the launch date as August 2010, but it doesn't seem to be coming up with any suppliers as yet.  Maybe they're waiting for Christmas time?

 HI Barretgazzy, Cruncher by Mattel is EVERYWHERE right now in the U.S . You can find him in the following stores and many more, Toys R Us, Sears, Amazon , Target, K-Mart, and there are also many listed on Ebay, and yes there are sellers who will ship to the UK. if you cant find a local store there in the UK to sell it to you. the going price for this guy seems to be right under a $100.00, so you add in the cost of shipping and you will see what you are going to spend. I have noticed some of these places advertise Free Shiipping on items selling over $100.00, but did not read if that included international, I figure you should do that depending on if you can find Cruncher in the U.K, or not.
               This may be an item that I may be able to sell this Christmas or not, depending on the price. ;) Last year I sold two other very hot toys, but I won't mention their names here, but I did sell toys that Internatinally were hot and unavailable also. Good luck on finding Cruncher in the U.K, it may be you wont be able to find him till after the holiday season as he just came out and is for this holiday season is my guess. :(

 Hi , When I sell items on ebay, ( or through here) if they are going internationally, I check the box that says, Gift, and then there are no duty taxes or fees. If I can get a deal on Cruncher and sell them this year, there will be the same option for you, or anyone else, where you will not have to pay duty taxes. :)
