Advantages: Children love them

Disadvantages: None

For a Bob the builder fan this set of plastic characters will give much fun. They can be played with alongside the Bob the Builder friction toys I have been recently reviewing .

There are 5 figures in this collection Bob, Wendy, Marjorie, Farmer Pickles and Pilchard the Cat. I saw them in John Lewis for £9.95 I am not sure where school got them from or how much they cost , but these figures by are available at several other on and off line shops " John Lewis price is good, I have seen them other places at £10 and over .

These figures have moveable heads, legs, arms, tail. They are about 10cm tall

They all have moveable heads, arms and legs/tail. . I will not describe each character individually enough to say they look identical to the pictures of these characters both in the books and the TV programes. Your child will recognize them instantly.

These figures are well made and should last for years, many play hours. They are easy to clean just need a wash in soapy water.

Play value ? Yes they have lots. My granddaughter aged 3 was playing with a couple of them and I was listening to her talk, it was magical. I was interested to hear how her language was developing the concepts she was using .
My granddaughter was mixing up real life situations with Bob the builder scenes she has seen.
Children are fascinated by real builders and Bob and his crew, help them understand what's going on .

Would I recommend these toy figures ? yes I think any 3, 4 , 5 year old would play with them and older children too
