“Overall, this is a fun little set to build and play waste-management. The dumping mechanism works well. We get a few new neon yellow pieces. The mini-dolls have proper work clothes and can be used for other jobs like road work. The recycle truck is a nice addition to... More Heartlake City public works to go around collecting the trash.”
