Please do not post "want" threads. It clogs up the forums and many other members get very aggravated at pointless threads like this.

Besides, evidently we have a wishlist thread already made.

P.S. If you are going to make a wishlist thread, make your language legible.  ;)

A Sound/DCC Thomas won't sell since the age group the models are aimed have probably never heard of it, plus it would rack up the cost considerably, thus it would be too much money for the age group.

take 2 cattle cars, chop off one end of each car, and super glue them together, then paint them with Modelflex paint.

Bachmann does not sell parts, therefor you won't get your bolts.

Walthers, and many other companies make lightbulbs and street lamps.

Make your own out of brass wire.

Paint them with Modelflex "engine black."

Make it out of brass wire.

Once again, paint them with Modelflex "engine black."

Why faces on freight cars if they didn't have them in the series (yes, I do recall when I was 5 watching, a video with edward and some cattle wagons without faces).

Chains- too much detail for models aimed at 6 year olds.

Rosie- too little known of an engine.

Diesel- Could work.

Duck- Could work.

Harvey with RC Crane- Same deal as Rosie+Bachmann doesn't have RC technology. They would have to use a decoder, and once again the age group the models are aimed at would have trouble with the DCC. Also, the engine is soo small and crane soo small, that you couldn't really pick much up.

Donald & Douglas two packs would be too expensive. Seperate sale only, but not a bad idea.

Rocky- Refer to Harvey.

Thomas+James' new trucks- Could you be more specific?

Red/Orange Coach+Brake Coaches- refer to above.

Foolish Freight Cars- Never heard of them, what do they do?

Vent Vans- Refer to above.

Mail Coach- Not a bad idea.

Boxcar- Not a bad idea.

Henrietta- Not a bad idea seeing as Toby is out.

Freight Car Loads- Make your own, its very simple and would look better than a molded one.

In the Thomas episode, Thomas' New Trucks, Thomas and James are given their own freight cars, and those were the ones.  However Thomas' Truck (Or trucks if you are planning on buying more) Have already been done (If you watch the episode posted below) as it is exactly like the coal wagon with the load.  The Blue Wagon is technically similar to the Open Wagon Bachmann has made, but it is in a darker blue.  Here is the episode if you haven't seen it:

As for the Foolish Freight Cars, it is basically the same as the Troublesome Trucks, if you are talking about how they did the Troublesome Trucks in Season one then I can kinda see that happening, mainly because Bachmann has made lots of wagons for the Thomas range. 

The ideas were good ones Thomas, but I will admit we already have enough wish list threads as it is.  We'll leave this topic alone for it to be deleted.

DCC ready in all the Thomas line.  Let the customer pick and choose the decoder.  Some kids DO run DCC! :o
