trevor369 hello everyone, i hope all is going well, with all of you. Recently a complete, trackmaster alfie, came up for sale. no one here got it? it was a steal! to say the least!
MuddyPoppins He never replied,,, Funny that you would revive this thread today though, as I was also contacted by one of our subscribers today who just found an Alfie online and was excited to have just purchased it. He got it for a real steal too...easily worth 5-10x the sale price.
confusedanddelayed Oh man, I had forgotten about that site! Crud. Another opportunity missed! 🙁 Happy for the person who snapped it up though.
Six Small Wheels Studios I was actually the one who bought that Alfie yesterday, when I saw it, I instantly had to get it, I couldn’t miss the opportunity. It should arrive in 3 weeks! I’m quite excited, also apologies if I snapped it from you lol. I’ll be reviewing it on my channel on my birthday. 🙂
confusedanddelayed No apologies necessary! Good for you for scouring all the sites. I hadn’t visited totally Thomas town for quite a while (shame on me!). I’m glad Alfie went to someone who knows what they got! So so rare to see one come up. Congrats! And I’ll definitely look out for the review 🙂.
DalaGStanator Meanwhile, I've turned three of my old Mighty Wheels heavy equipment into custom non powered versions of Pack members after realizing my (already green) telehandler wouldn't make a bad Alfie once I'll add the excavator arm and other detail (even though its chassis is wrong and it has one of the same drawbacks as the TrackMaster one in that it can't rotate). Byron looks near perfect and Jack also turned out really good. They will be slightly too big compared to my engines, but I will find solutions for them.
Six Small Wheels Studios So, today on Totally Thomas Town an Alfie popped up for sale, it’s been purchased by someone already but I thought it would be fun to revive this thread to tell you all.
confusedanddelayed It looks like the same listing from the one you were able snag, no? Did you see this one being in stock, or do think this was yours and the listing somehow stayed up on the site?
Six Small Wheels Studios It’s actually a different one, they sometimes reuse the same photo when they list something, not sure why.
confusedanddelayed That’s wonderful. I missed another one. I had been checking that site with some regularity. :/
Super I find it very odd that an Online selling site would recycle pictures of used items. How do you know what your getting? Do you buy things site unseen?
Six Small Wheels Studios I apologize for replying EXTREMELY late, I kept forgetting to showcase him, but here’s images of my Alfie! I’m very happy to have him in my collection.
MuddyPoppins WOW!! Outstanding!! Super Cool!! & much Congratulations to you!! That is quite a great rarity that you now possess. Take great pride and care of him.🙂
BradyLikesTrains Hello everyone! I haven't really posted on BPT before and I thought this would be the perfect thread to show off my own Alfies! I was actually the one who purchased the Alfie that went up on Totally Thomas Town in June 2020. Just today I got ANOTHER Alfie, from a $60 lot of Thomas stuff on Facebook Marketplace! Very glad to have them in my collection!
