This year’s Hess Toy Truck isn’t a truck at all, and it’s officially landed! The 2021 Hess Cargo Plane and Jet joins the iconic fleet of green-and-white vehicles, and if you’re like us, you can probably hear the jingle with just a mention of the Hess Toy Truck. A featured pick in the Toy Insider‘s 16th annual Holiday Gift Guide for kids ages 3 and up, the Hess Cargo Plane and Jet is a classic toy set that features lights and sounds and comes packed with six Energizer batteries included to make gift-giving easy. As in recent years, this year’s set is available exclusively at hesstoytruck.com while supplies last — which tends to be not very long. Measuring nearly 14-inches long and with a wingspan of 15-inches, the Cargo Plane is the biggest vehicle ever offered in the Hess Toy Truck collection. The heavy-load transport aircraft features a white body with a Hess Green undercarriage. The Plane also features bold green striping; a sparkling chrome nose cone and accents; six turbine engines; free-rolling, foldable landing gear; and 32 high-visibility LED lights!
