Rocket Boy and Toro is a South Korean cartoon series that originally aired on CBBC in 2008.[2] The show was set in space and the main characters consisted of Rocket Boy, Chrystella, Vector, Grandpa Sat, and Toro, Rocket Boy's sheep assistant. The show only aired for two years and has not aired since.

The show is mainly about Rocket Boy and his friends delivering parcels to different galaxies and planets around space. During the course of the series they are always slowed down by Dr. Square (an evil super computer with the brain the size of a planet), and his henchman, Trash (who always tends to fail his missions). Dr. Square is always trying to capture Rocket Boy so he can learn the secret of his speed, but no matter how hard he tries, Rocket Boy and his friends always seem to come out on top.

The show was created by Korean animation studio Imagestone, Manchester-based Cosgrove Hall Films, and London-based Village Prods.[3][4]
