RM souvenirs / tacky toys

I'm looking for a job lot 100 - 200 of tacky tourist tat such as Routemaster pencil sharpwners, key rings etc...

You know the type of thing. So long as it is cheap and nasty doesn't matter what it is.

Any leads gratefully received, I don't want to impinge on anyone's tasteful collection....

Thanks in advance

My bus number (if any): 1842

Re: RM souvenirs / tacky toys

Just to clarify...

My son is visiting from Thailand, where he lives and works, and it is customary in his community for people who travel abroad, return with souvenirs. He thought Big Ben or Bus themed stuff would be a hit
It's the thought that counts and for so many people, pence rather then pounds.
Anyone recommend a wholesaler?

Elgate products sell "London" gifts. Routemaster themed stuff and London Taxi's and that sort of thing.
