Why is your John Deere tractor blue? It should be green, blue is ford, ford sucks. So does sad Case and New holland.

I'm probably wrong about the brand but the point is it will kill someone easily!

Breaks my heart to see it like that, in good condition those are worth some serious coin these days.

I knew, but my mom sold all my toys and my comic collection in a yard sale while I was away staying with my dad one summer. I didn't even get the money from it.

The worst thing to lose in that was my Star Wars collection, mainly my Millennium Falcon (the big one, exactly like the one shown in Stranger Things) and my Han Solo blaster. :'(

For that matter, is the brand even still around? I haven't looked in a long time.

Tonka is still around but they're all mostly plastic now...made to break so you'll have to buy it more often.

It's not that they're not built to last, it's that they're built to NOT last. It's great for the bottom line of businesses, and that's it. It's terrible for consumers, and it's terrible for the environment. Too many things that don't last or are "disposable" sitting in landfills. And not just toys, pretty much everything you can think of.

It's considered good meme etiquette to upvote comments you reply to...I tend to ignore people that don't.
