\"Hess<\/p>\n

<\/h1>\n

Q: When will\u00a0Hess release the 2015 Hess Toy Truck?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A:<\/strong>\u00a0Hess has announced that it will release a 2015 Hess Truck this Fall. \u00a0Normally they release their “Winter Truck” prior to Thanksgiving. If you would like to be notified when it is released you can sign up for our email alerts in the box located in the top right corner of this page.<\/p>\n

Q: Did\u00a0Hess stop making the Mini Toy?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A:<\/strong>\u00a0Yes. \u00a0The 2014 Hess Mini Toy was the last one released. There was no toy released in the Spring of 2015. Hess has been silent on this matter and issued no public announcement confirming or denying this. \u00a0We can only assume that they stopped making Mini toys because they’ve sold off all of their retail gas stations.<\/p>\n

\"HessQ: The battery finally died in our\u00a0\u00a0green 2004 Hess Motorcycle. Do you know what size battery it takes?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A:<\/strong>\u00a0Yes. \u00a0It is a small watch battery size A76. \u00a0Each of the 2004 motorcycles take two A76 batteries. \u00a0By the way, this is the standard size micro battery that Hess uses in all of their smaller accessory toys. \u00a0AAA and AA are other popular sizes used in Hess accessory toys.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: Will\u00a0Hess release a 2015 Hess Mini Toy this year?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A:<\/strong>\u00a0No. \u00a0Hess Corporate has not announced the release of a mini toy this year. \u00a0Normally these toys are released at Hess Gas Stations in May around Mother’s Day. \u00a0Now that Hess has sold their retail gas stations it appears that they will no longer be making the Hess Mini Toy.<\/p>\n

Q: When does Hess release the 2014 Hess Toy Trucks?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A:<\/strong> Typically The Hess Company releases their mini Hess Toy Truck in May each year. The 2014 Hess “Winter” Toy Truck will be available around the Thanksgiving holiday.<\/p>\n
