Time spent with these toys creates memories that last a lifetime as kids are inspired to play using the boundaries of their imagination. We look forward to creating a family friendly motion picture that brings the Tonka experience to life.

After all, Tonka has been the bestselling toy truck globally since 1947 and deserve the silver screen treatment. Stay tuned Tonka chuck and friends! Logo
