Adventure galloped into living rooms in 2012 with the arrival of Mike the Knight’s Deluxe Glendragon Playset, released by Character Options. Inspired by the hit CBeebies TV show, this detailed playset earned its place among the Top 10 Christmas Toys of 2012 by offering young knights-in-training a world of imaginative roleplay, excitement, and festive fun.

Why Glendragon Was a Holiday Hero

A Castle Full of Surprises

The Deluxe Glendragon Playset was packed with interactive features. It opened up to reveal multiple rooms, a working drawbridge, trap doors, ladders, and even a lookout tower. Kids could place Mike in his trusty castle and prepare for action — whether guarding the kingdom or setting off on a quest with his friends.

Bringing the Show to Life

Fans of the TV series loved that the playset reflected the whimsical world of Glendragon. It came with exclusive Mike the Knight and Galahad figures, allowing little adventurers to recreate their favourite scenes or invent brand new missions. From royal feasts to dragon-slaying duties, the storytelling possibilities were endless.

Character Options Delivered Knightly Fun

Character Options nailed it with this festive release, capturing the essence of the show while delivering an exciting play experience. As one of the best Christmas toys of the year, it struck the perfect balance between screen-time inspiration and hands-on creative play — something every parent loves to see under the tree.

A Legendary Toy from 2012

Although Mike the Knight has since passed the crown to newer characters, this playset remains a cherished toy for many. It stood out thanks to its attention to detail, clever design, and ability to spark endless imagination. For Christmas 2012, the Deluxe Glendragon wasn’t just a toy — it was a gateway to a medieval adventure.
