Special mention:

As a proud member of the PAW Patrol, Rubble has stolen the hearts of preschoolers around the world with his loyal, optimistic nature and penchant for treats. The new series, titled Rubble & Crew, expands Rubble’s world with storytelling that digs into amazing construction projects and the importance of family, combined with high-stakes action, fun adventures and messy demolition that preschoolers will love.

The new series follows Rubble & Crew as they go on high-stakes adventures. To bring the excitement of the PAW Patrol world to life, PAW Patrol has released four new Rubble & Crew toys with life-like construction toys and pup figures;

  • Wheeler’s Dump Truck
  • Charger’s Crane Grabber Truck
  • Mix’s Cement Mixer Truck
  • Rubble’s Bulldozer

Kids can join Rubble & Crew on their big adventures, recreating their favourite building projects from the show, with their own true-to-life construction vehicles that feature real working wheels, and true to life construction features like movable scoops, rotating mixing drums and extendable crane arms — all the things that kids love.

Rubble & Crew Construction Vehicles are $24.99 each and available exclusively at Kmart.
