Jack has been really missing pre school this week with it being half term. I have tried to find a number of different activities to keep him occupied – we’ve been on play dates, been into town and seen family but sometimes all he wants to do is sit and home and play with his toys.
Enter the Disney Planes Fire & Rescue Blade Ranger, available to buy at John Lewis and Argos amongst other places for £22.99. Jack is a big fan of the Cars and Planes movie franchises so was super excited to see this arrive.
Description //
There’s a blazin’ fire at Piston Peak and the Air Attack team needs your help! Leading this rescue mission is veteran helicopter Blade Ranger from Disney Planes: Fire & Rescue. With his special hook he helps his fellow smokejumpers Blackout, Avalanche and Drip escape from danger. Press the button on Blade Ranger’s side to spin his rotors and release his rescue hook down towards the ground. Then, position the hook so that it latches onto a smokejumpers capsule. Pull each vehicle up one at a time and out of harm’s way. You just helped save the day! Following a successful mission, boys will feel fearless and triumphant – just like their heroes from the movie! Includes one large-scale Blade Ranger vehicle and three small-scale smokejumper vehicles.
Jack has really been enjoying playing with this. He often ‘rescues’ many of his other toys and leads them to safety. We have had this for a month or two and it has held up well to Jack’s daily use – the toy is suitable for boys age 3+ who are often boisterous so it is obviously designed to withstand most things.
The helicopter comes with three pod style things which the helicopter rescues to safety. Unfortunately due to him being at the lower end of the age range and not quite understanding, I can only find one now. I’m sure they will turn up but it is worth noting that if you have a young child like me, they may disappear. Luckily, the helicopter works well with other toys and Jack has plenty of fun rescuing his dinosaurs and farm animals too.
Would I recommend this? Definitely. If your child is a fan of the films, then you will definitely want to purchase this. But even if not, it is a great, versatile toy that can be played with on its own or integrated into play with your child’s other toys. We really enjoy playing with it.
We were sent this item for the purpose of review.
All honest opinions are my own.

That looks like a great toy, My little girl has just gotten into planes films so i bet she would love this although she is still a bit to young yet xx
My son loves Planes too! We can’t find this helicopter anywhere because the movie is older and toys aren’t in stock. Let me know if you’re interested in selling it

I’m afraid this review is 5 years old and we passed that toy along to a friend’s child a few years ago now, sorry.
