    I live in Spring Park MN which is right next to Mound MN where Tonka toys were produced. My mom, other family members and friends worked there. Watching this video hurts because it reminds me of what our town looked like when Tonka bailed out and moved manufacturing to Mexico around 1980.

    Very cool, at least they aren't in the land fill. I'm 60 years old and (I LOVE TONKA)! I still own several as well. Kinda reminds me of the aviation and the riding lawn mower bone yards that exist.

    The graveyard is moving and heartfelt it's almost sad and it's still wonderful to see GI Joe and stuff Kevin

    Just saw part 2 and came over to watch this. I'm impressed to say the least! I'm surprised he leaves all this stuff out in the elements to rust. That has to hurt their value I would think. I would also assume from the abundance of dump trucks that they were the most popular truck Tonka ever made.

    I miss the days when toy vehicles were made of solid metal almost withstanding everything’. Now everything is made out of cheap plastic. Only fun if you enjoy running stuff over with a car. 🤪🤪🤪

    What on Earth? Why??? Then again I’m 46 and bought the big Lego Liebherr model last year... and will buy their Volvo dumper this year. Lego, Tonga, you cannot beat the old toys. I had a Tonga du p truck, it not like the ones here, played with it all the time when I was young.
