Wheee car and truck set. If you pull them back, they roll by themselves. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toy-cars-amp-trucks#post-1506415 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 07:27:10 +0000 honeybear 1506415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just passed by another one: Bruder. They are really expensive (and huge!), so it took me a long time to pull the trigger on buying that truck, but it's definitely worth it! My son loves it.</p> <p>Also, as for realism on the cheap, Matchbox actually does a decent job with its cars and planes. My chief complaint is that we've got a B-2 that is painted metallic gold with flames. Seriously, Matchbox?! What's wrong with matte black? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toy-cars-amp-trucks#post-1506373 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 07:06:08 +0000 looch 1506373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bruder. My son is OBSESSED with trucks right now and he will not tolerate ones that do not look like the real machines. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toy-cars-amp-trucks#post-1506367 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 07:04:29 +0000 honeybear 1506367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have one Green Toys truck and a bunch of Hot Wheels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toy-cars-amp-trucks#post-1506364 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 07:02:51 +0000 Mamaof2 1506364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For us anything goes! We have matchbox cars, we have trucks that make noises, we have metal trucks, we have plastic trucks - all are well loved by both DD and DS!!</p> <p>My mom has an amazing thrift store near her where she got Tonka trucks for $1.99!!! Cant beat that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toy-cars-amp-trucks#post-1506312 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 06:36:27 +0000 mediagirl 1506312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SugarplumsMom: while I really like Green Toys trucks, I have found a bunch of trucks at consignment sales and yard sales that my daughter likes just fine, for much cheaper. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toy-cars-amp-trucks#post-1506212 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 03:51:16 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1506212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm liking all of the Early Learning Centre's toys but they don't ship to where I'm at :sad: </p> <p><u>On a side note</u>: eBay UK seems to have tons of ELC toys for free with pick-up! Could be worth looking into if you're a UK bee :happy: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toy-cars-amp-trucks#post-1506205 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 03:21:32 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1506205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Please recommend toy cars or trucks for a toddler. DD seems to love cars at daycare and this is more DH's realm, but he hasn't had much time to look.</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
