Tractor toys

mkirsch · Nov 7, 2012

Gotta get some more IH toys to entertain the nephews this holiday season.

Anybody know who makes decent kid-friendly tractor toys these days?

Everything today is either high-detail, with lots of little parts that rambunctious little boys break off in a nanosecond, OR they're flimsy plastic that rambunctious little boys smash to pieces in about 10 minutes.

The only toys that seem to hold up are my old toys from 30 years ago.

Have you looked at Bruder toys?
I know, they aren't bomb proof either but our son loved them.

Bruder toys are great for Caterpillar stuff. You don't have to use screw drivers and wire cutters for twenty minutes to get the toy out of the box. My son has to for some reason pull every track off every excavator or dozer. Bruder seems to hold up well.
Early Ertl toys are what I buy. ( I know lead paint.) But they are in my opinion the best toy for "working" kids.
Toys must have been cheaper back in the Late 70's throu the 80's. I had a lot of toy Tractors that got "worked" when I grew up.
Now at $40 on up per piece it takes a lot of money! I guess you could say "Just like the real thing only smaller!"
