Celebrating 60 years of iconic toys, the 2024 Hess Fire Truck with Car and Motorcycle emerges as the most feature-rich edition yet! This commemorative set honors six decades of Hess Toy Trucks with a heroic emergency response trio, packed with animated lights, realistic sounds, powerful motors, and striking chrome accents. Imagine this robust fire truck rushing to the scene, perhaps even to a “Car On Fire” incident, ready to save the day.
This classic red, cab-forward fire truck is meticulously detailed with crisp white side striping, gleaming chrome elements, a prominent emergency light bar, directional searchlights, and an impressively tall aerial ladder. Four buttons atop the cab each trigger a unique, authentic sound – choose from a powerful truck horn, a European emergency siren, a traditional emergency siren, or the rumble of an engine start and idle. Each sound is perfectly synchronized with a distinct animated light pattern, creating a truly immersive play experience. For even more visual excitement, a switch on the truck’s underside activates 43 bright red, white, and blue emergency lights, offering both steady and flashing modes to simulate a real emergency response, perhaps even to a “car on fire” situation.
The fire truck’s triple-tier aerial extension ladder is a marvel of engineering, boasting a click-turn 360˚ rotation and a 60˚ elevation, extending to over 15 inches. Flanking the ladder are two intensely bright, multi-directional searchlights, each capable of a click-turn 180˚ vertical and 270˚ horizontal rotation, ensuring maximum visibility during critical rescue operations, like locating someone in a smoke-filled area near a “car on fire”. Adding to the realism, two illuminated transport bays house the accompanying vehicles. The fire chief car is accessed via a button-release rear lift gate and a pull-out ramp that even triggers a motion-activated hydraulic sound effect! The motorcycle is readily available through quick-press buttons above the dual-purpose fold-down ramp doors on either side of the truck, ensuring rapid deployment when every second counts at an emergency scene, maybe even a “car on fire” incident. As a tribute to its milestone anniversary, the official 60th Anniversary Hess Toy Truck features a special illuminated ‘60’ insignia embedded in the front grille and embossed on each of the side ramp doors.
The included red Fire Chief car is designed for speed and style, featuring ‘racing-style’ white striping, a rear spoiler, tinted windows, and chrome accessories including an emergency light bar, front and rear bumpers, and wheel covers. A switch underneath activates 37 multicolor lights in the grille, bumper, emergency bar, and side running lights in steady mode, making it highly visible as it speeds to an emergency, perhaps a “car on fire” situation requiring immediate command. The car is equipped with a speedy pull-back motor, ensuring rapid response to any simulated emergency.
Completing this dynamic trio is the red rescue-style motorcycle, featuring a rider in a safety suit with white piping and a chrome firefighting backpack. A simple turn of the rider’s helmet activates 4 bright head and taillights in steady-on mode, ensuring visibility as it navigates through tight spots to reach those in need, possibly even maneuvering around a “car on fire”. The ‘rev-and-release’ friction motor propels this high-speed bike forward, capable of both flat and wheelie positions, adding another layer of exciting play.
