Stinky the Garbage Truck

You might be wondering how a garbage truck gets to be part of the hottest toys in Christmas 2010. Grown ups may get annoyed at the names or at some of the actual toys that kids go crazy about this year. You may not be a fan of huge robot trucks, however your kids will probably love this toy. It adds to the usual amazement a child gets from either a remote controlled or a robotic truck.

You know the feeling of getting a new Matchbox car for your birthday or out of your Christmas stockings. A bright shiny new toy that has a mean look and an attitude to boast is enough reel in the fun. From the same makers of the said toys, Mattel and Matchbox, comes a new toy with some serious heavy weight on it that the boys will surely enjoy. It’s actually part of a line of products known as the Big Rig Buddies, which is primarily made up of larger toy trucks.

Product Features

The name Stinky the Garbage Truck won’t seem that appealing at first. But wait until you get a whiff of what this guy can do. Well, it’s a robot truck so you can guess by the size of the thing that it can interact with kids. It can basically transform from truck mode to robot mode. It can be quite articulate too since it can sing, talk, and at times crack a joke or two.

In robot mode, Stinky’s front wheels will rear up and his driver cab will function as his head, which moves and turns like a robotic head. This guy’s loaded with more than 90 songs and phrases in his arsenal, talk about a real chatterbox. There are times when he would go straight to garbage work and there are times when he would be in the mood for a song or simply just get a high five from the boys.

Stinky the Garbage Truck is almost like the real thing. You can drop small items onto the top portion of his garbage compartment and it will be dumped later. He can also tell you that he’s hungry. Grab small items to feed him via his mouth, which is his cab, and all the stuff you feed him will be dumped later on.

Out of the Box Details

Stinky the Garbage Truck weighs 5.4 pounds and it has dimensions of 13.5" x 9" x 13.5". The box will contain the toy and a few other items such as a user’s manual, a DVD of the Big Rig Buddies, and four demo C batteries, which basically mean you better get four C batteries for longer game play. Stinky is already out in stores but will still be very hot by Christmas 2010.
