No, they're dead center.  I took him apart and everything seems fine.  I've never had this problem and it's really annoying.  You'd think Bachmann would inspect stuff like that.

I just got Douglas and his eyes only look to the left.  They look left, move back to center, hesitate and move back left.  instead of going back and forth like all of my other engines. 

The mechanism seems to work fine without the body cover and the eyes seem to move freely without the undercarriage.  I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem with any other Thomas engines or if anyone has any suggestions.  If not, I'll have to return him. 

Okay, I get that people make up stuff all the time.  I mean, that happens with everything and I get why it would be annoying or frustrating.  Which is why I didn't just make a statement.  I asked a question.  Also, I didn't know about the specific February announcement thing.  Thanks for the info you guys.

Thank you Chaz.  At least your response was somewhat helpful.

First off, I'm not a dude.  Way to make assumptions.  Second of all, of course I read it somewhere.  Why would I just make that up?  Third, the whole reason I was asking was to get some kind of confirmation from somebody on here.  So, you can calm down.

Hey,

I was just reading that Terrence and Trevor are supposed to come out in 2009.  If that's true, I'm thrilled!  Has anyone else heard anything about this or anything else being released in 2009 besides Salty and Spencer's special coach?

Thanks for the answers you guys and the picture.  That was extremely helpful.  I wonder if you'll be able to buy the cars individually too.

I heard Salty is supposed to come out in the spring of 2009.  I don't know how accurate that is, but I don't care anything about him anyway.

I hope all that stuff doesn't get delayed until 2009.  We got so much stuff in 2007 and if the delay is true then that means we'd only get like two things this year.

Okay, so I know that Edward and Mavis are supposed to come out in November and maybe somebody else has already answered this question, but when are Henrietta and the mail car supposed to come out?

Also, I know the Thomas Holiday set is due out in October and he's supposed to have a plow and santa hat, but what else is special about it and what kind of cars does it come with?

What about the Thomas Fun with Freight set?  When is that due out and what does it come with?

I know this is a lot of questions, but if anyone can help me out, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.
