Deadly 60 Toys and Micro Deadlies
Deadly 60 Toys



Deadly 60 toys are based around the incredibly popular Deadly 60 animal series.

Deadly 60 is a show on CBBC and stars presenter Steve Backshall and crew as they travel the world in search of 60 deadly and often critically endangered animals. The show looks to educate its young viewers on endangered species in the hopes that these children will try and make a difference in the future. By shining a light on these endangered species, the audience may decide to try and prevent the extinction of some of these animals. There are many ways to help endangered animals, so some people may want to find out more about some of the different ways that people can help protect wildlife. Hopefully, more species will be saved with the help of the public.

Licensed by BBC Worldwide, respected UK toy company Character Options are releasing a new range of plush and plastic toys themed on the awesome Deadly 60 brand.

The toy launch follows the huge success of Deadly 60 trading cards.
