I dunno I'll post my two cents after the toy fair well one thing I don't really care for the large scale range as I do not collect it but I do care for the HO range...
I will wait until the Toy Fair ends. I can't wait ti see what the other announcements are for this year!
I wouldn't mind getting the Large Scale Percy and James... and if Edward and the other 2 main engines were released, I'd like to get them just for display purposes... since it's probably the closest to having the real thing :P
If Duck and/or Oliver don't make it, then obviously them. The only other engine I would really want is Stepney. I love that guy! :)
yeeah I'm gonna wait till the announcments are up too
Same here
We're getting Diesel this year!!
Yeah, and I have a feeling that perhaps the windmill will be released.
OK since we have some announcements, here is my list:
HO
Duck
Truck 4
Lady Hatt
LS
Toby, Edward, and/or Emily
Henrietta(If Toby)
Emily's Coaches(if Emily)
Cattle Car
Brakevan
I don't think any LS figures will be released since the HO ones are a compatible size for a LS engine.
I have to agree with you on the figures. And your predictions are cool.
i know it is optomistic but i wouldnt mind seeing harvey or fergus. harvey could be converted into the duubs crane tank for any british idustrial modellers and fergus could become the blue circle too. duck, oliver, toad, spiteful brakevan, stepney, derek, bo-co, murdoch, arthur and old slow coach. anyone of them for me ;)
Fergus would be to fragile and a child could easily break his wheel in 5 seconds, unless Bachmann makes it super strong. But Fergus, along with many other characters, vanished and hasn't been seen for a while.
I'd love for bachmann Duck, Oliver, Stepney, BoCo (After all HE was a great engine, for all some people don't know him) Rolling stock, Toad, Red Coaches, Troublesome truck 4. Non rail, Trevor, Elizabeth, Bulgy and maybe Geroge. If there is any more news on 2011 I'll make some changes if needed.
HO
Engines:
Duck, Oliver (myself), Rosie, and/or BoCo.
Rolling Stock:
Red Branchline coaches and Toad
Non Rail:
George and Butch
LS
Engines:
Toby or Edward
Rolling Stock:
Henrietta
how about some more recent characters? scruff, whiff, stanley, belle, flora, dennis, molly etc?
Personally, I don't really care much for the new characters. I only like the ones from the original Railway Series.
Since Bachmann has officially announced their 2011 products, here's my 2012 wish-list:
HO scale
Locomotives: Duck, Oliver, Stepney
Rolling stock/Coaches: Red Branch-line Coaches, Toad, Breakdown Train
Other Friends: N/A
Destinations: N/A
some of them are okay, but others are just too over the top.
my 2012 list will be:
engines: duck, oliver, rosie and/or Bo-Co
rolling stock: old slowcoach, toad, spiteful brakevan
people: lady hatt, mr conductor
road vehicles: caroline, horrid lorrys
places of interest: henry's tunnel
i have one, because the Hornby model of Oliver is suffice;
DUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:(
Engines: Duck, Oliver, Stepney, BoCo, Daisy
Rolling Stock/Coaches: Troublesome Truck #4, Red Coaches, Old Slow Coach, Breakdown train (including van)
Destinations: Quarry set
now that would be cool :o
duck oliver red branchline coaches breakdow crane works unit coach tt4,5,6,7 lady rosie and toad I know they all won't happen but thats what me wants
DUCK AND OLIVER and Vent. van with face along with the Breakdown train and Red Branchline coaches.
My 2012 list:
(Engines)
Rosie
Harvey
Stanley
(Rolling stock)
Toad
Small china clay truck
China clay truck
Old van
8 ton van
Red branch line coaches
Tan branch line coaches
Old coaches
Breakdown train
Works unit coach
Rocky
CCT van
Bolster wagon
(Off rail)
Lady hatt
Trevor
Elizabeth
Butch
Duke & Duchess of Boxford
That's it & I'll just make my own Duck.
If they're only going to announce 3 engines.... I'd have to say Duck, Oliver, and Stepney for 2012
for me I'm happy with my hornby oliver I might not get stepny not a huge fan of him so I want duck and rosie

That would be a dream come true for me! ;D
My wishlist:
Locos:
Duck
Oliver
Stepney
Mark ;D
Rolling Stock:
Old Branchline Coaches
Red Branchline Coaches
Season 1 truck
Season 1 Express Coach
And pretty much anything else we haven't seen since seasons 1-2.
I was also thinking, not saying this is ever going to happen, but what if Bachmann, being the kind people they are *insert suck-up face here* made RWS Series accurate or semi-accurate models.

That's pretty much what Hornby have done (besides the faces).
Was also just thinking, they should make a 4th T-Truck with the scary bulging eyes LOL :P
Yes, I know Hornby has done this. But Bachmann is actually around $10-$11 cheaper than Hornby in the TTTE range.
And who is mark? ???
Is Mark some character you created ???
Mark is short for Marklin, a German Model Manufacturer, who made the producers the models for the show. Mark is never seen exept for in a behind the sences photo. All he was ever even used for was pulling random trains around in some shots.
why don't you just buy a Marklin engine in HO scale? Why wait for Bachmann to (never) make one when you can just buy an engine, that looks like the Marklin engine, from Marklin.
I know Marklin, they make Gauge 1(G scale, G gauge, Large Scale) models. You can still buy them today. LGB makes products similar to them, but are more for running than showing(like the real models for TTTE).
It was only a joke.
