Pablo392 I love the Christmas sweater Thomas, and Emily's icy wheels although it's going to be a lot of waste with a box full of duplicates again, I guess it's worth getting those duplicates for these really nice looking Christmas engines.
jdogman Two "new" sets. Motorized Rescue Stunt Set (https://fisher-price.mattel.com/shop/en-us/fp/thomas-friends-minis-motorized-rescue-fxt29) Just a repainted Motorized Raceway with Thomas and Flynn variants and a Harold that's been in other ranges. Target Blast Stunt Set (https://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-GBB21-Target-Blast-Multicolor/dp/B07DK4NNBF/ref=pd_ybh_a_75?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=59262Y373AEDS0BTMVA6) A set based on a carnival dunk tank with a Sir Topham Hatt figure, and Thomas with a clip-on cape.
sunhuntin some photos of upcoming minis, and a comment about some of the new themes: pets, rainbow, holidays, icky, sushi, x-ray and medieval. https://twitter.com/TF_Minis/status/1013987400924532737 https://twitter.com/TF_Minis/status/1012223024798433280 there loads of other photos of unreleased engines. loving the new designs.
Reivax I’ve always seen those pics posted but never knew it was from a twitter feed. I always see so many boxes of glow in the dark trains in the store, it’s kind of surprising to see they are making 2 more sets of them. Also first time I’ve seen those exclusive beach trains. Sure hope that pack actually comes to Canada this time. One more thing. I picked up the neon splatter cargo train today and went to check it off on the list and didn’t see it on there. It came in the 7-pack that has Camo belle.

I've been watching the new engines posted here but I've gotten a little behind on updates. I'll try to catch up in the next week or so.
Reivax No worries at all. I think most of the ones posted around aren’t officially out yet, anyway. I think the neon splatter cargo trailer is the only one I’ve ever seen that’s not on the list. Thanks for all the work.
drewbenn So it took me a month or so to add the latest 2 new engines, which made me realize I'm falling behind on making updates to my site. According to all the rumors, there are nearly 100 (!!) new engines coming out soon, so I decided to try out that crowdsourcing thing all the cool kids are talking about, to see if that will help the site can get more-timely updates. So if anyone feels like adding new engines to the html or adding missing or new engine pictures, or just filing issues for bugs or to alert me to new engines, you can check out the site on gitlab: https://gitlab.com/ixbyix/mini . Just an experiment for now, we'll see how it works out! 🙂
mikedaws The new light-up minis are up on Amazon. Looks like just 3 of the 5 packs though. Happy shopping!
mikedaws Just received the new Light-Up MINIS today. They’re pretty cool and the best thing about them is that because of the batteries inside them, they feel like the weighted MINIS. These are worth picking up! Only 3 of the 5 packs are currently available. The other 2 packs should hopefully be available soon!
mikedaws Pablo392 wrote I hope batteries don't leak and ruin the trains. Personally, I would remove them if they are part of your collection or if they are going to not really played with and put away. I agree, don’t want the trains to be ruined.
mikedaws It’s a old prototype picture of what the MINIS were going to be. It’s currentky on the London Drugs website here in Canada. Not sure why they just started using it. Would be interesting if they actually made them. Wonder if they were going to be motorized or pull-backs.
mikedaws Has anyone found the new 2018 3-Packs 3&4 at retail level? If yes, do you know if the trains have the ‘classic style’ chassis or the ‘new style’ chassis? If you don’t know the difference and you have these packs could you upload a picture showing the side view of the cargo trains included with them. Thank you very much. I’m compiling a variation list of the trains and these are the only packs I haven’t seen yet.

Reivax I have the neon splatter cargo from set 3. I haven’t seen set 4. I’ll have to dig it out later and upload an image.
Reivax Thanks for the previous information. So if you’re from Canada, how did you get the light up set? I’m also from Canada but didn’t see them on amazon Canada. I’m close to the border in Ontario, so I do have access to a p.o. in Niagara if need be.
