"A toy shouldn't break just because a child plays with it." - Slogan commercial 1975

The Tonka Club web site ... sounds big for something small like a Tonka toy. Besides, a club has members ....?! (CLICK HERE TO BECOME A MEMBER)

Correct! But with this club it's a little different. This site is all about passion for Tonka toys and where it stands for. Tough, durrable and beautifull. Although more than 60 Tonka cars are in my posession it's also your collection where I'm interested in. I'm hoping you are willing to share your collection (photo's!) and experience and knowledge with this site. 

This started as a Dutch site but due to the fact that also international oriented visitors came along I've decided to use (as non native speaker) English as main language.
