Retro Collector's Edition - Made with 2X More Steel, Kids Construction Toy, Metal Truck, Toy Truck for Boys and Girls, Kids, Toddlers, Ages 3+, Mighty Dump Truck - Amazon Exclusive

I couldn't really decide between 4 and 5 stars but went with 5 because it's a great product that's brand new, no rust, scratched tires, etc. So in this line they added more metal and the older 70s logo is back. This toy in the 70s had two levers for the bucket as this new one has only one lever and like more recent models it is plastic and huge. There is a lot of metal in this one and the bucket IS metal. The arms are not. I'm not sure why they chose to use so much body metal and plastic on the main working part. It's not a problem as I'm an adult who just wanted this for nostalgia not wanting to get an actual 70s one that's rusted or bent with a lot of play wear. Of course these are indeed toys and I do think this toy would hold up to quite a bit of use. These things are huge and I know that's why MINE has to live outside...no muddy, dented, rusty huge toys inside. I'm not a purist when it comes to Tonka...but I don't want to pay much for old beat up things. The price I paid for this seems very reasonable compared to a vintage one to do what this will do...sit on a shelf....take down every now and then to marvel over. Very nostalgic even if they are NOT reproduction pieces. The one handle actually works really well so it's not a problem. There are two versions of the mighty loader so if you want the one with the MOST metal, it's this one. Excellent quality product to delight anyone. People say their kids are so rough on toys....I don't know what on earth they do to them but this is a sturdy toy. If the kid is really destructive stick with the dump truck because either current version is practically indestructible.

Christmas gift.

Tonka trucks have always been loved by young boys in my life . They are built very well and stand up to boy play. The usually last to be passed on to another generation. Purchased this for a 3 year boy who loves to play outdoors and has lots of areas to dig. His mom says he absolutely love it.

My boys play with these every day. Lots of pushing and hauling. These have a lot of steel like the older Tonka trucks.

Bought this for my son and he loves it. He is one and loves to push it around, put his toys in it and sit in it lol. It was worth the cost, the size is large which makes it even more fun for the kids. It can be played with inside or outside. It's heavy duty and sturdy. If your considering it go for it!

Grew up with Tonka toys, and they are still made out of real metal, yet safe for my 2 year old nephew, he loves trucks and I am happy to know this will last him a lifetime!

Bought this & the dump truck for our grandson. The product is as described and overall very nice. The handle and bucket arm are plastic and do not feel sturdy enough. Also the pins that connect the arm to the bucket don’t need to be bigger being plastic. If the plastic arm holds up this is a 4 otherwise it’s a 3.

Great quality, Will last a lifetime

The best toy you could give your child, made with exceptional materials that will last for years, can't be damaged, that is a 100% .

Just like I remember them when I was a kid. Very well built and mostly metal. Kids love them. I wouldn’t buy anything else for the kids.

We bought this as a gift for our two year old grandson because we got his dad the same truck when HE was two. It’s wonderful that Tonka trucks haven’t changed much, and our little guy just loves it. Perfect to load up all his toys and blocks. Great quality and will be awesome at the beach or in a sand box. These things last FOREVER!

Estilo retro! Bonito como adorno!

Robuste et de très bonne qualité, vraiment solide...du Tonka quoi... bon pour des années.
