Postman Pat SDS Deluxe Electronic Helicopter

If you’ve watched CBeebies recently, you’ll have noticed that Pat isn’t your average door-to-door postie anymore. Postman Pat has been given a whole new lease of life, in his Special Delivery Service series.

Gone are the days of merely trundling around the lanes in his little red van – Pat now regularly takes to the skies in his own helicopter, recreated here in a new toy from Character.

Children aged three and over can enjoy recreating scenes as Pat provides all kind of exciting deliveries to the town of Pencaster. The Helicopter’s propellers spin and the front lights up when it is pushed along the ground, and it also has a windable winch to help lift some of Pat’s more awkward deliveries.

Pat may have been promoted to head of the Special Delivery Service, but he has remained grounded in some ways too, and hasn’t forgotten about his faithful companion Jess, who is included in the set, along with Pat himself, for around £9.99.
