This is a vintage Tonka XMB-975 front-end loader, produced during the 1970s, a period known for Tonka’s heavy-duty, American-made construction toys. Built from pressed steel with Tonka’s iconic yellow paint, this loader was designed for rugged play and remains highly collectible today.
The toy features a fully functional front loader bucket that raises, lowers, and tilts smoothly. It rides on oversized original rubber tires with Tonka-branded hubs and includes a detailed cab with exhaust stack and engine housing. The red Tonka side decal is present, adding strong visual appeal and authenticity.
With its solid construction and moving loader mechanism, this piece displays beautifully while still showcasing its interactive design.
