These guys are about 10cm tall, they're hard plastic they're poseable to some extent, and I need to find a few more of them online. Can somebody please tell me what specific search terms I might use e.g. make, what TV program (?) the characters are from or whatever? The only one I know is Bob the Builder! I really haven't a clue here and I'm up against a deadline ...

One on the left is Bob The Builder, others may be from the same show.

Turn the brightness and saturation down on your screen and have a wander through the CBBC and CBeebies websites.


Is that a Springer in the background?
 
Left is definitely bob the builder, middle I think is from postman pat and think the one on the right could be from Bob the builder too

Oh, nice one Alastair! It is indeed. Bob the Builder's the only one I've found so far on Ebay, simply because that's the only search + poseable figure that's come up with anything relevant. Ideally I want to see what else is available in the same range or something similar i.e. poseable, about 10cm tall and based on ordinary everyday humans as opposed to sci-fi, zombie or Disney characters ...
 
Found the one on the right on the web, it's Farmer Pickles also from Bob The Builder.
 
If it's just for posing, how about Stikfas?

 
bob the builder either end postman pat middle

This looks like the set that the Bob the Builder characters are from and the Postman Pat ones are here.

Can't see any particular brand - I just searched for "Bob The Builder / Postman Pat poseable figures"
If there aren't enough different ones in those sets, I guess you now need a list of children's programmes that contain 'realistic' looking characters???

Brilliant! Thanks chaps (by which term I include Sarah, whose Google-fu is obviously way stronger than mine).
