Honey Bee Acres Time to Garden & Farm Truck

The sixteen-piece Time to Garden set boxed with the ten-piece Buzzby Farm Truck — the plot, the crop and the vehicle that takes it to market.

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

What is in the box

Bundle	Time to Garden (16 pieces) and Buzzby Farm Truck (10 pieces)
Figures	2 flocked figures
Includes	Replantable trellis, wheelbarrow, tools, vegetable crate
Ages	3 and up

The flowers and vegetables lift out of the trellis, the wheelbarrow brings them to the kerb and the truck carries them off in its basket. It is the most complete little errand on this shelf, and it runs in both directions, which is why children repeat it rather than finishing it.

Dottie the rabbit works the garden and a cow drives the truck; both are flocked and posable at head, arms and legs with clothing that comes off. The truck's doors hinge open, its tyres and steering wheel turn, and it seats four when the neighbours come.

This is a paired box rather than a new idea: the garden 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 crop and a way to move it. 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.
