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.

Thank you!

Reivax

No prob. Let me know if the image I posted is what you were looking for. If not I can try and correct it.

mikedaws

Thank you for the image. It’s what I was thinking. I live in Vancouver and was able to order on amazon.com. I had them sent to my US p.o. box as I’m close to the border as well. They were $7.99 and there are 3 varieties listed as of now. Amazon usually gives you free shipping on orders of $25 or more. Thanks again!

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.

That's a good idea!

Did you guys see this:

Fisher-Price Thomas & Friends engines just got a minis makeover! With over 80 minis engines to collect, Fisher-Price Thomas & Friends minis from Fisher-Price completely reimagine the Island of Sodor with never-before-seen themes! From animal and construction designs to even outer space, minis showcase Fisher-Price Thomas & Friends engines a whole new way! New themes for 2019 include pets, rainbow, holidays, icky, sushi, x-ray and medieval. Of course, no collection is complete without your favorite characters in their classic styles, which is why Fisher-Price Thomas & Friends minis also include lots of classic engines, too! Kids can collect 'em, race 'em, trade 'em, and use imaginations to create really unique adventures for these really useful engines!

Cool. Nice themes. Definitely don’t need any more neon related trains. Would like to catch up on 2018 first, of course.

Looks like the new Glow In The Dark minis are hitting stores. I found this image on eBay.

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know what Fizz minis look like? Any promo/twitter pictures?

I just received my light ups, back of the package shows only 2 others in each pack, I suppose there will be only 3 x 2 packs in this series.
No word on new glow in the dark or birthay edition Thomas mini yet.

Also, I noticed stores are not stocking any 7 packs anymore, been to several walmarts and targets, each one had only few older packs along with blind bags.

What are they like? 🙂 fun? gimmicky? somewhere in between? Are they cool out in the summer sun, or only work in a dark room?

Reivax

This is the first I’ve heard of these fizz trains. They sound interesting.

Pablo392

Hi Drew, they are pretty bright, even outside you can see the light, but the engines are nothing special, I would hope for $4/each these engines would have something really special, for example maybe if their eyes lit up, that would be interesting and different. I still prefer creative collections they have been putting out, flocked Thomas is still my favorite among recent releases, followed by back to school engines.

Reivax

I found 3 of the 2-packs of light-ups at toys r us in Ontario today. I actually couldn’t get myself to buy them. They will be $10 each after tax and $5 each for each train, for the moment, was hard to justify. They are near. Just a little light inside that goes on and off a few times. Nothing crazy. Will just have to get them another time.

Reivax

Hey, guys. So I’m thinking I may actually come into another super station James train. Which then I would have available for trade if anyone here still needs it. I was hoping maybe someone out there would have the 3 beach trains available for super station James. It seems like that 30 pack is yet again available in the USA and Not yet in Canada.

Looks like the advent calendars for 2018 are starting to show up.

Attn: Canadian minis collectors. Toysrus.ca has the light-up minis listed. For those of you looking.

So I’ve caught myself up on drewbenn’s wonderul site and it’s made me look further at everything that’s been announced for the rest of the year and I wrote it down and I’m wondering if there’s anything I’m missing. Or if there’s any additional information on some of this stuff. Like, did those Australian football league trains actually get released? I’m incredibly confused by those and what their availability is/will be.

They haven’t been released yet! Hopefully soon. May be a regional exclusive to Australia only.

Looks like 2018 Wave 4 has been released in the UK. Items are showing up on eBay.

I believe the beach trains and some of the light-ups have been released; I just haven't updated my site yet. It's been busy around here, but I'll get to it soon.

Glad my site's been helpful, though 🙂
