  8. I came on YouTube tonight specifically looking for the Tonka commercial that fools you into thinking you're looking at a factory's production parking lot. I wasn't expecting to actually find it. Wonderful.  I loved that commercial as a kid.

  16. What a cute commercial. Wow, I always thought they were made in Minnetonka MN, I guess not, they were made in nearby Mound, huh.

  19. Even when they rust, they're still tough enough to take a sledgehammer. Personal experience with that.

  20. I just saw one of those at K-Mart! They weren't lying; I punched it and it didn't break! They sell the cheap plastic ones at Wal-Mart.

  21. : Yes. I remember that commercial.

  22. WOW, Tonka's were the GREATEST!!! Wish they still made them like they did when i was a small boy. All PRESSED STEEL- NOT MUCH PLASTIC:):):):) My Grandson has a stable of them today, and loves to play with them just like i did. That parking lot commercial was great. Made in the USA.

  23. For each Xmas in the 70's when my brother and I were little kids, he would get a brand new Tonka toy vehicle. They were so cool that I was almost as enthralled with them as I was with my girl toys. LOL! His Tonkas included a couple of dump trucks, fire engine, a Jeep-type vehicle w/ removable tires, and more. I finally even got my own pink Tonka "Jeep" w/ flowers on the canopy--perfect for my dolls and small stuffed animals to ride in. I loved that thing! Wish I still had it. It was so rugged!

  24. I had the tonka truck in the advert from 1:40 - 2:10, Those things were literally indestructible, you could take a hammer to it and it wouldnt break, *sigh* i miss those trucks.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Great commercials, and great trucks! When we went to Jones Beach, my parents had to schlep my entire Tonka construction division. Probably miles of beach "roads" were graded by me. Robert Moses would have been proud!
