PAW Patrol brick figures are a popular hit with shoppers at The Mall Luton

The shopping centre had 21 models including favourite characters and buildings from the hit Nick Jr. show.

Families were invited to find the brightly coloured toy bricks with characters including Chase, Marshall and Skye.

Three-year-old Ayla Moon (pictured), from Luton, followed the trail, and was one of the first to have a selfie with Chase and shake paws with Skye.

The Mall was one of the first venues to host the official PAW Patrol brick models, with the pups ranging in size from 75cm to 120cm, the trail also featured a 2-metre-tall Lookout Tower using over 65,000 bricks and Marshall’s Fire Truck – made up of 141,000 bricks.

Lavinia Douglass, Marketing Manager at The Mall Luton, said: "The response to the trail has been fantastic – nearly 500 families came to see it on our opening weekend.

"The detail on the models is incredible and we love seeing the scores of PAW Patrol fans getting up close to their heroes.”
