Title: Release Dates?
Post by: therailwayinspector on December 31, 2010, 09:16:01 AM
I, look a lot of people on this forum, eagerly await the dates when items are expected to be released, and thought maybe it would be easier to have a thread dedicated to the subject that to have to trawl through things the the "Everything Thomas" thread or alike to find posts about when items are expected to be released.

So, to the purpose of the topic. What release dates are known for what items so far?

The only thing I know is that Large Scale James is due in the spring.

Could the Bach-Man give us an estimate as to when other items, such as Donal and Douglas, will be released? It just helps people like me know wether we have time to buy something now and save for them, or wether they are expected to be shipped out soon.

If anyone else knows when things are being released, please do post them here.

Donald and Douglas will probably be released in the fall. The reason i say this is because bachmann will either say June or July, then they will push it back to August, then they will be released anywhere between October and December. it all has to do with the production schedule always changing.

I've heard that Donald and Douglas would be released in Spring.

In one month it will be the 1 year anniversary of the announcement of Donald and Douglas and there are not even any pics. yet. Hopefully we will get a picture early in the new year and have the models by Spring because we have waited long enough.

From where?

Someone asked on bachmann's facebook page where bachmann replied with "Sometime in the spring.''

The Farmer McColl figure is available, too. Here's a link. http://cgi.ebay.com/BACHMANN-HO-THOMAS-FARMER-McCOLL-TRAIN-42448-/180607440220?pt=Model_RR_Trains&hash=item2a0d0ad55c
