LEGO Toy Story 3 Garbage Truck Getaway
If your children loved Toy Story 3, they’ll adore the LEGO Garbage Truck Getaway set.
Jessie and Buzz Lightyear get themselves in a rather rubbish situation when they end up trapped in a large garbage truck en route to the dump, with Lotso and green insectoid Twitch hot on their heels. Will they suffer a smelly fate? With the LEGO Toy Story 3 Garbage Truck Getaway set, you get to decide how it ends!
Minifigures of Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, Twitch and Lotso are included with the set, which also has a blue dumpster which can be lifted and emptied into the truck. The truck hopper opens as the dumpster is lifted over the top of the cab.
At 22cm long, and 13cm in height, you’ll find that the garbage truck in this set is a lot bigger than the vehicles found in the LEGO City range. It’s closer in size and build to the larger, more complex LEGO TECHNIC sets. Compare the regular sized Twitch minifigure with the wheels of the truck in the picture above to get a sense of the scale of this set - they’re similar heights.
The LEGO Toy Story 3 Garbage Truck, set number 7599 in the series, is aimed at young space cadets aged between 6 and 12, and contains 402 pieces.
When Toy Story 3 opened in the summer of 2010, it enjoyed the single-highest opening day gross for an animated film on record, and was every bit as popular as the two previous installments.
So no wonder the LEGO Toy Story 3 garbage truck is already being tipped to be in strong demand this Christmas. It could well be at the top of your child’s Christmas wish list already, so get it now before it’s too late.
