The new toys have been released in tandem with the new Aldi Christmas advert, which launched last week.<\/p>\n

Initially, fans were worried after the trailer for the advert was released and\u00a0Kevin was nowhere to be seen.<\/p>\n

But fans let out a sigh of relief when\u00a0Aldi released a Willy Wonka-inspired Christmas advert and Kevin was finally back\u00a0on TV screens.<\/p>\n

Accompanied by grate grandpa, Kevin embarks on his tour of the festive goodie-filled plant, encountering all sorts of mischievous characters on the way – including dancing plumty-dumptys and a spoilt little sprout<\/p>\n

The ad concludes with the charming closing message "Seasonal goodwill was truly in the air as Christmas is a time that's sweeter when you share".<\/p>\n

You can watch the full ad\u00a0here in our round-up of this year's Christmas adverts.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a full list of the toys that are available from today:<\/p>\n
