Gardaí were reportedly called to a toy shop in Dublin yesterday as customers fought to get their hands on a popular singing Elsa doll from the film Frozen.

According to the Irish Independent, the incident happened at the Smyths toy store at Airside Retail Park in Swords as parents rushed to secure one of this year's 'must-have' Christmas toys. No arrests were made, but it is believed gardaí are investigating.

Manufacturers are struggling to match demand for the Frozen Snow Glow Elsa, with parents having queued overnight on Thursday / Friday as toy shops received their latest shipment of the doll.

As described on the Smyths website, the doll raises its arms and has a "snowflake necklace light up while it plays the hit song Let it Go and her dress magically shines".

The €44.99 doll is currently sold out online and in stores, while prices upwards of €100 are listed on auction sites such as adverts.ie.

Frozen is getting a limited re-release in cinemas, while sing-along screenings will take place in the National Concert Hall on 13th December.
