Product Description
Editorial Review The Bulldozer is a big brute of a machine in the best Tonka tradition: 12 inches long, 8 inches high at the cab cage, and armed with a 3.5-inch-high, 7.5-inch-wide blade, this cat-tracked bulldozer is built for serious work. Good thing it's too big to fit on a dinner plate, or there would be earthworks made out of unwanted food all over the place. Instead, havoc will probably be confined to the carpet, the sandbox, or some hapless flowerbed. The main body is metal; the detailing and cat-tracks are plastic. The dozer blade can be lowered to grade level or locked half an inch up to get it out of the way. You could push around a pound or two of material with this thing. --Richard Farr From the Manufacturer What sandbox would be complete without this classically styled bulldozer? With a front plow that can be raised and lowered, this truck is ready to handle the toughest play. Plus, it's made with durable plastic and real steel ¿ built TONKA tough ¿ and guaranteed for life! Rugged bulldozer features a front plow that little construction workers can actually raise and lower! Ages 3 and up

Thought it would be a great toy for grandson
I thought this would be a great toy for our 3 year old grandson. As I
watched him trying to play with it, I was wishing I had gotten something else. If you want a push type toy, this isn't one for that. He's still into running and pushing bigger vehicles. This one isn't tall enough.
Then he tried moving the blade up and down and that proved to be rather
hard and doesn't move much when it does move. Later we took it to the
park so he could play in the sand with it. The rubber tracks kept
coming off. He finally got so frustrated with that, he went to play with
something else. I kept thinking about how much I had paid for this toy
that had turned into such a disappointing experience for him and myself.
If I had know about these things before I purchased it, I would have gone with something else.
Tonka Review
Product is a vintage high-quality Tonka design. It is missing much of the cheap plastic and push-button sound effects some common with toys today. It allows use of the inagination.
Rubber tread issue
My 4 year old is in his "heavy equipment" phase, and so I went ahead and bought the Tonka bulldozer for his birthday. I thought it was a tad expensive, but put out the money because I knew he'd love it, and assumed Tonka put out a quality product. Well its true that my son loves playing with it, but the rubber tread on the dozer wheels keeps slipping off and has to be constantly put on. I don't think it is worth the money its priced at, and would shop around to find a similar product for a cheaper price.
