Thomas Trackmaster Busy Day On Sodor TOMY Streamlining Thomas Speed & Crashes ─ leokimvideo

Thomas & Friends classic Trackmaster train set Busy Day On Sodor is a curious trip back in time to 2012 when Trackmaster classic ruled. This playset has pieces dating back to 2009 and that's right at the time when Fisher Price took control of the Thomas toys from HiT Toy Company. There was very little difference with the Thomas toys initially but as the years rolled on Fisher Price (Mattel) started to change the formula and DNA of the Thomas Trackmaster toys. Put it this way in only a few years this toy train system was totally transformed into Trackmaster 2 and is nothing like this classic Thomas Trackmaster toy. Busy Day On Sodor features Arthur and Thomas who have their own rolling stock, a track layout that's large and interesting. Farmer McColls farm, Elsbridge Station, two tunnels, two cows, working water tower, stop go and an elevated bridge section. This toy plays out like a real railway and not a rollercoaster. For much of my audience this playset will seem like a lost family member who's suddenly re-appeared out of the toy wilderness of today very different Thomas playsets. Busy Day On Sodor is almost faultless and it ticks so many of the boxes when it comes to playability, Sodor Island feel, size of toy and value for money. It's the sort of toy that basically stands alone without the need for much more. It's the ultimate starter set that could be easily added to with more classic Trackmaster trains and playsets. I feel it's a very important trip back in time considering where the Thomas empire has been headed lately. Sadly the Trackmaster 2 Thomas toys are not fully compatible with classic Trackmaster. I recently purchased the utterly stunning TOMY Takara Streamlining Thomas with Annie and Clarabel in dream sequence blue as seen in the Thomas film The Great Race. This is one of the most amazing Thomas toys I have ever purchased. It features a build quality and finish you do not see on the Mattel Thomas Trackmaster toys! This toy is awesome in so many ways maybe the best feature is the two speed switch. To really ramp up the action I take the very fast Streamlining Thomas for a ride on the Trackmaster 2 playset Thomas Tank Trackmaster Scrapyard Escape Journey Beyond Sodor Playset. The results of this toy mash up are amazing. To see my review of the Scrapyard Escape playset the link is below.

Sadly I can not promote the e-Bay seller who sold me the TOMY Takara Thomas toy. It was not properly packaged and the toy boxing was damaged in the post. This toy needed to be in a protective box in the same way Amazon would do. Brown paper and small cell bubble wrap does not work.
