A family with their own transport

Honey Bee Acres Barksters & Buzzby Farm Truck

The four Barksters dogs boxed with the ten-piece Buzzby Farm Truck — doors that open, wheels that turn, and finally enough passengers to fill the seats.

One box from the Honey Bee Acres line of flocked animal family playsets.

What is in the box

Bundle	Barksters dog family (4 figures) and Buzzby Farm Truck (10 pieces)
Figures	5 flocked figures
Truck	Seats 4, rotating tyres and steering wheel, hinged doors
Ages	3 and up

The truck seats two in front and two in the back, and this is the only sensible way to buy it: four dogs is exactly a full load. The crate of pretend farm vegetables gives the trip a purpose, and the hinged doors and turning steering wheel give it the handling.

The truck's own cow figure comes along as the driver, so there are five flocked characters in the carton, all posable at head, arms and legs with removable clothing. Nothing needs assembly or batteries.

This is a paired box rather than a new idea: the dog family and the farm truck, packed together. Honey Bee Acres normally sells its animal families and playsets individually, and the pairs exist for the moment when one present has to do the work of two — here that means a household and its transport. Nothing inside is exclusive to the pair; each half is the same box sold on its own elsewhere in the line, with the same three-inch poseable figures, the same interchangeable clothing and furniture and accessories at the one scale this flocked animal toys world has kept for years.

Honey Bee Acres is made and distributed by Sunny Days Entertainment. It belongs to a tradition of flocked animal toys that reached collectors from Japan decades ago and has barely changed since: round ears, soft coats and furniture cut to fit. Boxes are sold individually, so the village grows one at a time, and every poseable three-inch character shares the clothing, furniture and accessories of the whole line — one scale this animal toys world has held to for years.
