This is one of the biggest models of the Attack Track series, but not necessarily the people’s favorite. It can still be found for very little money in auction sites.
The car reveals a monster with three mouths, one on the cab and two more on the front wheels, and this makes it roll with difficulty. I think Mattel should have solved this in a better way. This is its greatest flaw. The rear hook/crane and the bed with the bones cage are excellent, and you can really trap one of the smaller, ordinary cars, this gives it more playability than any other feature.
The name “Big Bones” refers probably to this cage, and I think it is well chosen. I guess it sold very well due to the artwork on the box, as the concept is much better than the realization of the toy. There were other bigger trucks in this collection, but they were surprisingly, very different to each other.
The toy is made of plastic, so it is also light and rather simple. It is decorated with some stickers, but these are not really very good. I would like to see more stickers and more colours in truck form. The chromed motor and front, as well as the exhaust pipes are good, but not great.

Curioso diseño. Parece el tipo de vehículo en el que Inmortal Joe (Mad Max 4) iría en busca de esclavos.
ReplyDelete:) ¡Qué buena película! Recuerdo que la vi en un avión, y había escenas con decenas de vehículos, incluso una lucha sobre camiones en marcha. Alguno podría ser perfectamente este. ¡Gracias por comentar!
