I wonder, though, if Daisy and BoCo would have the eye mechanism in the first place. If they did, it'd probably have to be driven by a separate, smaller motor.

hmm i never thought about it like that imagine trying to get a gearbox to strech across the whole engine to get to the moving eyes maybe that's why bachmann hasnt made any thomas engines with bogied wheels  ??? ::) ??? ::) ??? ::)

and dont mean to double post but i think the silver looks nice the black makes it seem like it's dark in the cab  ;D :P

I dare say that if enough interest is shown in having models of the older characters, such as Boco, Diasy etc, then Bachmann may even consider making models of them. It all depends on demands.
Boco though would be good for non-thomas modellers too who want a class 28 CoBo model, and the experienced could certainly adapt a bachmann model of him. I know I'm planning to make a stirling single from an Emily loco in the upcoming months....

Everyone has a little Greek them.. But anyways Mr.Jolly's Chocolate vans? A intersesting idea but they were only in one episode so maybe something scratch built. I believe trackmaster made them so you can try to convert them. And and what do you mean by a CCT van,old van, and Sodor Conflat?

The cct vans are pretty much just the mail cars painted brown. the old van is the front van in the runaway train in the episode "a close shave" and the conflat is already  made(i think). its just the rf container wagon.

Rf container with crates that is.. ;D

LOL, valid point Mr. Clearwater.

My questions/statements are the following:


Why is there a redesign need for Thomas and his coaches?

When you say season 1 and 2 express coaches, they have already been made, but take into account that the reds have been retired (WHY?! :'(), so that is kind of irrelevant.

Why redesign Bertie and Cranky? They look just fine, besides the crank knob on Cranky, but that is there for obvious reasons.

Also, who's Sir Lowham Hatt?

PasqualeCS96

I think that means the Fatty should a lesser amount of ham.

Look at the large scale annie & clarabel models & If snowflakeTH wants thomas redesigned then I'm with him until it happens.


#2
Season 1



And season 2.

#3

I was kidding about cranky...It's bertie who is in need of some re-tooling.

&  #4

Sir topham hatt with a moustache.

All my reasoning for Thomas, Percy and James being revamped is justified here: http://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/board/index.php/topic,9227.0.html

Well for Thomas, some of the things have never been noticeable by me, such as the un-smooth running (he runs great for me, maybe he just faults on insulated point frogs). Others are just minor, such as the little details needed to be changed. The front coupler can be easily added by anyone with enough perseverance. But, considering Thomas isn't absolutely perfect... I guess I give in to that...

As for the season 1 and 2 coaches: I know what they look like. :P Bachmann also seemed to make an attempt on the season 2 coaches, but that was mixed with the current express coaches and something not really even related to the TV series. I could agree to a retooling of the express coaches, but they kind of already have the season 2 coaches.

Also, with Annie and Clarabel, what is special about the LS models that makes a redesign necessary?

I definitely agree with the ideas of the following:

Duck
Diesel
Breakdown Train
Branch Line Coaches
Troublesome Vans
