Title: Come On Edward!!
Post by: TheFattHatt1943 on June 14, 2008, 02:05:16 AM
WHEN WILL EDWARD COME?! They said the longest time without a pic would be 120 days! It's been over 120 days! We are all so miserable that there isn't even a picture of him!!

Well, Patience is a Virtue...

Or, Good Things come to those who wait...

The point is, Bachmann are still working on Edward. They correct faults before the model is released, and that makes for an excellent model.

Or do you want a model with flaws in its design?

I've said this many times, and I will say it again.

The delay of Edward is actually a good thing because it takes time to make a model in a good quality.  It is much better to have a perfectly made Edward model, rather then a rushed and poorly made model.  Bachmann trains are loved by their good quality, and I respect Bachmann for that.

Keep up the good work, Bach-man! ;)

If you have a problem with waiting, make one yourself!

That is one of the joys of this Hobby. Of course, when you complete it, a manufacturer announces it*.

As mentioned above, patience is a virtue.

We had to wait a long time for Emily to come out last year, and she turned out to be one of the best models the Bach-man has come up with. I can safely say the same thing will be true for not only Edward, but Mavis as well.

Remember, it's about quality rather than quantity.

I am excited about Edward. In fact, my middle name is Edward. Isn't that cool?

As I said earlier, photos will come when at least there is a prototype suitable for public release.

Yes, and I can only image how good Bachmann will make it. After all, they make such splendid locomotives.
:) I'm sure Bachmann will post here or a new topic when the photos are realeased to dealers, the site, and the photo gallery.
