Stinky The Garbage Truck

Stinky has a moveable, white driver's cab which can turn like a head, and his front wheels rear up either manually or by pressing different sensory buttons. Stinky has a big, bold, and entertaining personality and he has over 90 phrases and songs. Sometimes he's all business, and will let you know that the cleaning crew is coming through at other times he's in the mood to sing, exercise, or solicit high fives.

Stinky can be turned off and still be played with manually just like any other toy vehicle, but it is his five interactive modes that are real fun. If he's pushed and pulled in his vehicle position, he'll turn his head-like cab side to side and blink his headlights and by pulling his smokestack or lifting his rear door will make Stinky speak.
