Tonka Toys from Asda

We received a superb box full of Tonka vehicles to introduce the range for sale in Asda, which were launched on 10 February 2018. and are available in store

This is what we received:
Tonka Diecast Big Rigs £6.99 This is a superbly detailed model that will really encourage realistic play - children will respond well to the exquisite detailing which will inspire all manner of imaginative games. The detailed lorry pulls a flat bed trailer which houses three removable storage containers; for added play value, children can substitute their own loads for transportation. The 10 wheels on the truck moves smoothly even on carpet. The trailer detaches from the truck and can be stood independently using the suspension. The excellent manufacturing quality means the vehicle will endure many hours of play and still look pristine This rig is built to last with realistic detailing, even down to the details on the wheels and the painted on rear lights.

Tonka Diecast Monster Trucks £6.99 This is definitely one that copes with plenty of rough play. It will be perfect in the sandpit with its huge rubber wheels just built for rough terrain - it's great fun to build a course out of sand and create a fun scenario. I think ours is probably a fire truck, balanced carefully on the massive wheels. Again, the detailing is perfect and will appeal to children who want accuracy in their models - they really are good enough to be collectors' items. The Tonka Monster metal die cast collection was built for the extreme! Your favourite urban, construction, and emergency vehicles now sit atop massive, monster wheels which are really impressive.

The garages double as storage boxes for the toys and they can be stacked together - makes a great display.

Tonka T.S. 4000 Front Loader

This massive (as toys go) vehicle is a superbly built product which is designed to dig, dump, and haul. The first thing you will spot is its large working bucket, which you can try out in the box to see how well it works; it's really solidly made and works with a satisfying 'clunk';  The handle can be used to lift the scoop up/down and in/out. The vehicle runs on big deep cleated tyres which run smoothly over all sorts of surfaces. The body of the vehicle is made from heavy-duty steel and it will definitely withstand the most enthusiastic of games. It offers hours of fun in the sandpit (as long as you have a big sandpit!), in the garden or on the beach. Our local park has a large sandy play area which is absolutely ideal for this superb vehicle - and it garnered plenty of admiring looks! This is a really well-built classic toy that will survive almost anything - and still last to be passed on to another generation. The loader is great for imaginative and role play, especially if your child is lucky enough to have a whole collection - or friends with some. You can see the whole range of Tonka Steel here. "Tonka’s Steel range is a long standing classic. Tonka Steel is the perfect way for kids to enter a whole world of construction play. These rough and ready vehicles are made from real steel and include a variety of cranes and trucks to choose from, plus chunky tyres mean going off road won’t be a problem!"
