 Rescue Heroes is a line of toys from Fisher Price designed for young children, depicting various rescue personnel and their equipment. As it is designed for young children, the toy line is not necessarily realistic, and contains many elements found only in science fiction. A 1999 animated television series has also been developed with the line of toys, spanning one season on CBS (1999-2000) as Rescue Heroes and two on Kids' WB! (2001-2002) as Rescue Heroes: Global Response Team, totalling three seasons. The animated series helps to teach children proper safety techniques.

Background

The Rescue Heroes is an international organization that, along with local authorities, helps rescue animals and people from certain natural or man-made disasters. It is unclear exactly where the Rescue Heroes make their base of operations, but the animated series suggests the U.S. Pacific Northwest (or possibly the Canadian Rockies) as a likely place.

Characters

The main Rescue Heroes are listed, detailed information is only given on main characters.

  • Billy Blazes- Billy, a firefighter, is the leader of the Rescue Heroes, and help picked the other members of his team. In the animated series, he has a brother Bobby as well as a father, both of which he has an uneasy relationship, due to his decision to become a firefighter rather than a construction worker. He was first discovered after saving a group of children trapped in a carnival ride that was set ablaze. An episode suggests that Billy's family hails from Montreal, Quebec.
  • Wendy Waters - Wendy, also a firefighter, is effectively the second-in-command. Her father, Warren, also appears as a Rescue Hero, working at their orbiting space station. It was through a combination of a news report about a factory being set ablaze and through her father that led her to trying out for the Rescue Heroes.
  • Jake Justice - Jake, a police officer, had his start as a Rescue Hero when he had caught a wanted criminal after a televised car chase that made national headlines. He is typically seen with his Justice Cycle, a custom-made motorcycle.
  • Rocky Canyon - Rocky, an African-American mountain climbing specialist, is the youngest member of the Rescue Heroes, having started at the start of the series. Because of this, he often leads to his teammates into further trouble due to his inexperience.

An early episode suggests that he hailed from Oklahoma, and that his father had recently died.
  • Ariel Flyer- Ariel, a flight and wildlife specialist of Spanish descent, is the second youngest member of the Rescue Heroes.
