Product Description
The MB Actors Low Loader Truck with CAT Excavator is the perfect combination! The Mercedes Benz Actros Low Loader Truck has a tipping driver's cab that gives you a view of the engine. It has a fifth wheel clutch, a supporting bar that can be folded, and folding ramps locked by bars that can be unhooked. The Mercedes Benz Low Loader has an adjustable locking device, and removable drop sides. This very realistic Low Loader also has soft rubber tread tires.The CATERPILLAR Excavator is an exact replica of the original and can be operated by children on their own, by means of a child's hand size handle on the main excavator rig that is easy to use. The excavator function was further developed to create an all-time first by creating a function that slows down the tipping out function when the shovel is being emptied, so that complete unloading can only be guaranteed at the same height as the tipper. Furthermore the excavator arm can be used way beneath grade level and the shovel can also be removed. A special feature is the fact that the treads are equipped with genuine chain links. The vehicle can be fitted with the supplied rubber fittings so that the treads can run on slippery surfaces. The bonnet can be opened and the realistic ventilator grill emphasizes the high quality detail.

8 of 8 people found the following review helpful.A toy for a boy's boy!
By Alice in Wonderland
Now this is a toy for a boy's boy! Do you have any idea how big these are? Look at the dimensions!I know, what can I say, I knew that these were full-sized toys, but I must say that when I unpacked them I was quite surprised. The truck and the excavator each comes in its own box. The toys are large, and quite easy to play with. They are also remarkably detailed, and look like display items rather than toys. But, once your kid gets a look at this thing, he, or indeed she(!), won't be able to keep their hands off of it.Right, they are made of plastic, and you will want to avoid giving them to children under the 3 year age limit - there are too many pieces that a little one will be able to pull off and perhaps swallow.I gave this to my nephew, who was wowed by it, and immediately began playing with them in his back yard. (Large toys, such as this one, are more backyard friendly, I have always thought.) He used the excavator to dig in his sandbox, and generally had a great time.Now, this is not a cheap toy. But, if you are tired of seeing kids getting masses of cheap toys that they do not appreciate, and merely walk over, then consider a high-quality toy like this one. We think it's great!(Review of Bruder Mercedes-Benz Actors Low Loader Truck with CAT Excavator Combo)
4 of 4 people found the following review helpful.Good, but not as sturdy as it looks
By TropicalMinnesota
These are well made compared to many of the trucks made today, but are still not the quality of past Tonka trucks. They are made of heavy plastic, which is a plus as they do not rust when left outside. However, there are parts, like the outside mirrors, that are quickly broken off by children as well as over-zealous adults. The trucks are labeled as to be only for children over 3 due to small parts/choking issues. I think most of the small parts will be ripped off after the first few uses.All in all, they are good trucks. However, for the price I would have expected more. I think I will stick with the less attractive, less detailed, but indestructible solid wood trucks.
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.My nephew LOVES this set!
By J. Salzenstein
I'm generally hesitant to give toys like this to my nephew because it's such a stereotypically "boys" toy- I'm glad I did, however- he LOVES it! Although the truck/loader aren't built like they used to be (plastic rather than metal), nothing is these days, and for this category of toy, these are well made.The detail and moving parts are fantastic- he loves rolling the loader through the sand/dirt, scooping up sand and gravel and dumping it in the truck. He played in his yard and sandbox with these for about 2-hours yesterday, and then wanted to return to them later that night.Overall a good deal, a good toy, and a lot of fun!
