Rocket Boy and Toro is a high-speed, action-packed comedy space adventure for six- to eight-year-olds. Working at Grandpa Sat's delivery service with Chrystella the mission controller and Vector the engineer, Rocket Boy is the speediest delivery boy in the entire universe. 

With his trusty guard sheep Toro at his side, he must outwit his mortal enemies: the evil supercomputer Dr Square and his henchbot Trash, who are desperate to discover the secret of his speed, even if it means taking him apart to get it! Being a delivery boy has never been so exciting or so much fun! 

Doctor Square's latest invention is a real work of genius: a dream machine which, if it gets close enough, will make your dreams seem so real that you will think they are happening in real life. After a successful test on Trash, Square sends it to the Delivery Centre to catch Rocket Boy.

Grandpa, Vector and Chrystella all see their dreams playing out before their eyes. Toro even sees huge cake-growing plants! Eventually, Rocket Boy too is caught up in the machine's power and imagines himself racing with the famous Rocket Racers. He is having a great time but these figments of his imagination are actually leading him to Planet Cube!

Vector manages to work out what is happening and raises Rocketboy from his waking dream. Now that the ruse is discovered, Rocket Boy manages to turn the dream machine onto Planet Cube, leaving Square awash in mini Rocket Boys, all at his command. And Trash? Well, it turns out he just wants a puppy! Aah!

Rocket Boy accidentally picks up a hitchhiker, the ghostly Seamus O'Hooligan. The mischief maker and enthusiastic amateur mechanic earns himself a good telling-off when he causes mayhem by running riot through the Delivery Centre's machines. 

Grandpa, Chrystella and the gang are relieved when the troublesome spook finally seems to leave. Rocket Boy is off on another delivery when he finds out where Seamus went. He was hiding in his nosecone! Rocket Boy does not have the time to be angry though, because he is promptly caught by Trash!

Back on Planet Cube, Rocket Boy is doomed to face Dr Square's latest attempt to steal the secret of his speed: the vacuulator. It is a device capable of sucking a mind dry in minutes! None too pleased with these unfriendly Bots, the ghostly Seamus enters the Vacuulator and turns it on Dr Square, allowing Rocket Boy to escape. Rocket Boy offers Seamus a lift home but the little ghost isn't quite ready. He will stay on Planet Cube for a while yet, because there are so many machines to play with!
