Funrise Toys’ 2012 Ford F-250 Tonka T-Rex Brings Childhood Dreams To Life
Simply put, Tonka toys are awesome. From the steel trencher to the classic front loader to the mighty dump truck, just the mention of Tonka invites you into an imaginative, creative world full of dirty, sweaty, seriously-intense play sessions. Void of safety restrictions, nasty politics, and unrealistic deadlines, the Tonka truck worksite is a place of amazing productivity, where for 66 years buds have worked side by side to get the job done (before mom’s dinner call).
If only Tonka had toys for the grownups. Wait – they do.
Funrise Toys, the licensee and manufacturer of Tonka, has uncovered its life-size Tonka T-Rex truck. The base of the bright yellow Tonka T-Rex marketing and promotional rig is a 2012 Ford F-250 Power Stroke. Adorned with custom fabrication and modifications by Galpin Auto Sports, Fab Fours, Highway Products, Kelderman Suspension, and more, the “wow-factor” of the real-life Tonka T-Rex will help it stand out as it serves dutifully in holiday toy drives, family events, parades, and off-road events across the country. Sad to part ways with the Tonka T-Rex? Dry your eyes, adults – Funrise Toys will be releasing the T-Rex toy version in Fall 2014.
