Bkvir208 I grabbed these off of eBay, I do not know a whole lot about them, they seem to be an older release and with the boxes included, it was a perfect case of "Might As Well"!!! https://www.ebay.com/itm/282508070520
Super Wow and all New. I don't recognize the boxes but that probably due to them being released from the Tomy America Inc. Nice find.
Tharazero1 I am in love with the old style Thomas merchandise boxes especially with the old wooden railway and ertl stuff. I he never seen it on tomy Thomas boxes nor have I ever seen starter packs with trains other than Thomas, amazing find
Nigels They look very similar to the very old Hornby train sets you sometimes see around in terms of the cover design 🙂
Super The boxes also are similar to the Thomas Ertl trains as initially thats what I thought these were..

Bkvir208 Some of the tape had failed on a couple boxes, so I took a peek inside. The others will remain "new in the box". Here's a few pictures I took. http://s1065.photobucket.com/user/Bkvir208/library/Vintage%20Tomy

MuddyPoppins Tharazero1 wrote that Thomas also only has 4 wheels Percy only had 4 wheels Yes I guess he only does...well he's put together like the first issue Thomas w/ simple slot tabs to hold the shell on, rather than his standard spring loaded mechanism.
