Tonka Strong Arm Fire Truck Review (+ Giveaway)

Another Hot Toy Alert!  The Tonka Strong Arm Fire Truck by Funrise has won Dr. Toy's 100 Best Children's Products and 10 Best Active Products Award for 2010. 

It was no surprise to us that the Tonka Strong Arm truck's are hot this year, our twin boys were enthralled with our Fire Truck model sent for review from the moment we freed it from it's box.

With a crank arm that generates siren noise and sparks upon revving what's not to adore about the free wheeling red vehicle?  There is even a trigger to bring up the truck's ladder.  I was impressed at how easy it was to do, the twins at 2 1/4 are able to generate all the action completely on their own.  The even figured out the revving of the strong arm without me showing them what they needed to do.  Though, I did have to point out the trigger that works the fire truck's white rescue ladder.


The Tonka Strong Arm Truck line doesn't stop at fire trucks.  There is a bulldozer, dump truck, and recycle truck too.  Plus, there is the new monster sized Tonka Strong Arm Mighty Fire Engine which is a ToysRUs exclusive.

This is our second review for Funrise Toys.  See our review of their Gazillion Bubbles line of products here.
