when you think about it, for the time these toys were both simple and so well made, simple details that made them attractive, solid as rock, with moving parts. If I fell back to childhood with the knowledge that I have, no one would touch my TONKA🤣
Yes. I know what you’re saying. That’s why I tried to preserve these toys. My grandson would push the trucks around the house house and ram into the walls. Poor wall! Lol.
Thank you for in info. I got a mighty scrapper today. Was a awesome find. It’s a little rough. Any link on an engine for it ? It’s missing the black engine insert.
From NL, Europe: 🙏🏼😘 nostalgia! Even as a woman 50yr i remember many of them. Great to see again. The best toys there were fore boys. Even the roughest ones couldn't brake em. And if so, often they could be repaired. Thanks🤲🏽🌹
I love your collection. I had many of these as a kid, but now I am a lot older and are looking for a tonka cement mixer in green with white letters on tires. My sister had gotten it for me. All my tonkas were sold at a church rummage sale. I was wondering if you know of someone I can find one at? Have a good day.
Very nice collection. Allot of work in restorations. I just acquired my first 2 Tonkas, a mighty dump and a crane. I'm restoring them for me 2 grandsons. Please tell me where I can purchase the decals. thanks. kcreardon63@outlook.com

Being from Mound MN. Where Tonka Toys made I must say you’ve got a great collection. My mom used to work there.
Te faltó tonka Siterna agua
Alexander Gomez Cornejo . Tonka no hace Mighty Tonka Citerna.
Wish I could find some wreckers and cranes to add to my collection. Got quite a few dump trucks, car carriers, road graters, flatbeds, pickups, etc.
RJC 72 you can usually find a few on ebay
PS. Forgot to tell you the table and chairs look great!
