Product Description

Editorial Review

Kids who love to get down on their hands and knees and have some major bulldozing fun have got to have this. This bulldozer's real-life details include moving treads to help on rocky terrain, a roll cage, working lights, and truck sounds. There are three levers for driving forward and backward, power shoveling, and steering right or left. And all in the tough, construction-yellow plastic that is the Tonka standard. The bulldozer comes with four CC batteries. --M. Sullivan

From the Manufacturer

Nothing stands in the way of the Tonka Bulldozer. This rugged machine is equipped with a motorized power shovel to get the job done right. Working lights and realistic detailing combine in one Tonka Tough vehicle. This Tonka dozer is ready with two hands-on levers for power shovel and lights & sound.

i love tanks, and since this vehicle is track driven, i bought it for myself more than for my son. The controls are realistic. a good track vehicle should have 2 motors and they have to be strong since the friction of the belts soak up a lot of power. This tonka is tough but the motor(s) are underpowered, and with 4 size C batteries, the motor needs more torque to drive this heavy plastic vehicle. My son likes it when it is going up and down the terrain made by cushions covered by a blanket.
The shovel is poorly designed since it can only go up and down by about 1/2 inch from ground.
The controls are good and to a certain point educational. one learns about how to navigate these track vehicles.
The plastic is thick, rubbermaid type and of good quality.
The molded model overall is very detailed.
The noise it makes may get irritating after a while.
It is a big toy vehicle, for the amount of plastics, size, noises, maneuverability, it is inexpensive; i consider that it is a good buy.
Since it is really made by Funrise instead of Hasboro, do not expect this to be real tonka tough.
I rate it as average but the fun factor is still there; one must note that this is not for sand box play. How much fun?? I ended up buying the digger (excavator) also just for the sake of showing my son how these vehicles work and put stuff to the back of a mighty dump.
it is fun for me and my son.

My 31/2 year old son received this for Christmas. He loved it and wanted to play with it all the time! However, the tracks on the bulldozer came off after only a few days..we put them back on, but they continued to come off frequently. The sound of it was WAY TOO LOUD!! Fortunatly, the sounds quit working after 2 months (even with new batteries) Eventually the plastic on it cacked, and I pitched the whole thing. I'm sticking to the metal trucks from now on!!

My parents bought this for my two year old. And while they think it's great - they can go home and not listen to it! It's very noisy and not very durable - forget the sandbox. While my son will play around with it, moving the controls, etc., when he wants to really play, out come the Ertl Tractors and the good ole non-motorized Tonka trucks. Buy two non-motorized items for the price of this one - no ear plugs necessary!
