   I’m pretty sure every boy (and many girls) who had Tonka Toys had their own dreams of some day operating machinery like that. The sandbox became the construction site. I bet my brother and I moved a couple tons of sand playing with those pretty-much-unbreakable things when we were young. In a way, I did get to play with heavy machinery in the service, as did my brother. Dozers, tanks, APC, artillery, other engineer equipment, portable bridges – and explosives, lots and lots of explosives!

   @War_Pig, I have another friend in the army who said pretty much the same thing. Big machinery!
   @SenseiKen, wow. Yeah, I could see Vachel doing something like that. For entertainment though, not because he “just snapped.” :)

   Unfortunately, Tonka is now all plastic. I miss the nearly-indestructible versions

   Where did Vachel find that so quickly?
