Festive 'reindeerbot' delivery robots can now be spotted across Milton Keynes

Monday, 14 December 2020 10:06

Nine of the much-loved Starship delivery robots have had a festive makeover and have now turned into 'reindeerbots'.

Families enjoyed looking out for Starship's spooky 'pumpkinbots' when three Halloween robots were released across the city back in October.

And now the fun continues, as nine 'reindeerbots' (Rudolf included) will be making deliveries during the festive period.

Residents are being invited to spot all nine robots, and post photos of them in the MK - Starship Deliveries Facebook group, for some Christmassy prizes.

Currently, Milton Keynes has the "world's largest autonomous robot fleet" due to the robot delivery company regularly expanding to new areas in the city.
