Here are some Thomas 2021 Reboot news... Thomas is flying, jumping over the Moon, all the characters look like narrow gauge engines, except Gordon, who is...

@ Leyland

Yes, these three trains have some elements in common, but one of the main characteristics of the series is that the parts of the series (in this case the trains) are similar, isn't it? However, they differ in details, for example, Kana's sheep can be sheared! 😃

@ GGF

I am very glad that the largest range of AEG trains in the whole EU can now be found in Poland. None of the European Amazons, not even some web shops, have such a choice as Poland. I also found my "Bridge Lift Thomas & Skiff" set in Poland and via allegro.pl (more than acceptable S/H prices!) it arrived from Łódź! 🙂

Super

I really find it odd for Kana to be pulling Cargo

Mister No

Yes, and it was odd to release her in the "regular" edition with that recycling truck in the first place. She has nice, appropriate bullet train coaches in the series, so why not release her with them? Even Thomas will get right size Annie & Clarabel soon (Talking Thomas), and Kana is stuck with cargo... But the sheep is really cute! 🙂

for the roller coaster set, how does it work? I mean the AEG wheels are fixed or locked unless you turn the engine on. I don't see a stop track before the 360 tunnel or whatever you can that thing.

Mister No

Launch and Loop Set has a very similar "launch track" as the former Trackmaster Thomas & Friends FJK50 Turbo Jungle Set, only this time they made it easier to reset the system by installing a dedicated handle.

When Thomas is accelerated using that launch track, he goes fast towards and through the loop. It seems that the vehicle isn't touching the ground with their wheels while going through the loop, rather it “slides” along the slightly elevated inner parts of the track. After it passes the loop, the engine continues to drive on its own.

Continuing the McColl's Farm Adventures:

Back to the Barn Track Set

Super

Well that looks like fun for kids.

Mister No

It sure does. That barn will go well with the big windmill. Love that country feeling. Looks fun for kids of all ages! 😃

On a side note: Thomas from the "Around the Farm" (the one with the cow) would be perfect for this set.

But that Thomas will be available in that mixed Motorized & Push Along 6-Pack only.

A 6-Pack, Three Greatest Moments trains, now this big set... They are really pushing this Farm Series! 🙂

Looks like Thomas is really proud is his new paintjob.

Back to the Barn - a closer look:

Around the Farm Set - box:

Grrrr…these mixed sets really make me mad!
It’s extortion to have to buy their push-along’s just to get that Thomas. 😒

Mister No

Moreover, to get Thomas that obviously goes with the "Back to the Barn" Set, but it's not sold with that set!!
There is just plain Thomas (with different face, though) in that set. But Thomas from "Around the Farm" should definitely be the "Back to the Barn" Thomas... :/

Super

LOL...the drug dealer gives the kids who want that particular Thomas a little taste of the drug (Push Alongs) in hopes that they will also become addicted to them...profits, profits, profits = more Thomas addicts. ðŸ˜

Mister No

Here's how it goes: give your child "Around the Farm" Push Along set. The child gets as many as 5 beautifully painted Push Along engines - Thomas, Percy, Kana, Diesel, and even the Muddy Push Along Gordon - which can't be obtained any other way, except in this set.

BUT, the child also gets a motorized painted Thomas (with a very cool facial expression). Then the child (who surfs the internet better than you) sees that there is also a “Back to the Barn” set, which is just perfect for his motorized Around-the-Farm-Thomas.

After you buy this set, the child - or you 🙂 - already has two Farm Thomases - one from the Around the Farm set and the other from the Back to the Barn set. It is best to buy the third one immediately - the Greatest Moments Farm Thomas (the one with the pig), and when you’re already shopping, you can’t miss Farm Percy and Farm Kana, because you can’t have only three motorized Thomases on the farm, you have to buy his motorized friends as well.

That way, starting with small Push Along engines, you quickly bought quite a large collection of motorized Farm engines and trains! 🙂

Just found this one on amazon.de!

[size=medium][font=rubik, helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=medium][size=medium][font=rubik, helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Is it just a smaller version of the previously announced Launch & Loop Set (HJY30)?[/font][/size][/size][/font][/size]
[size=medium][font=rubik, helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=medium][/size][/font][/size]

[size=medium][font=rubik, helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=medium][size=medium][font=rubik, helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Or is HJY30 cancelled and HMB93 a final variant of that set? We'll see soon...[/font][/size][/size][/font][/size]

[size=medium][font=rubik, helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=medium][size=medium][font=rubik, helvetica, arial, sans-serif]That's a third variant of that set. The first one (the prototype) was best (higher slopes/bridges, nicer loop etc.):[/font][/size][/size][/font][/size]

Well...they are certainly making the most from their parts.

Mister No

[size=x-large][font=Arial]New Motorized Sets!![/font][/size]

New Thomas & Percy faces, new billboard picture, some different colouring... and a lot of elements (raisers, tunnels, bridges, docks, loading & unloading stations...) that had been seen in various TrackMaster & AEG sets, each and every one of them, I think... But the sets are colourful and fun! 😊

Oops! Percy is angry! >>

Super

Wow...they are really pumping these sets out...more-so than just before an Xmas season.

ThomasSirHandel

So I saw on Twitter the reboot is getting sent over to Japan

I just hope the third party stuff like Plarail doesn't get effected and it's only stuff sent over by Mattel

I mean WR and Bachmann haven't been effected so we can hope the same goes for Plarail

leylandvictory2

the rolling stocks on the new releases are essentially the same as before. The only set i may consider getting is the thomas tiger adventure on the basis that it comes with a troublesome truck. I am a big collecto of troublesome trucks. There is no such thing as too many troublesome trucks in my yard lol.

As for the "angry percy" does that button makes Percy to say something?
