Unfortunately Duncan has been cancelled, absolutely heart breaking to hear this.

Quote from: RailsByRick on August 28, 2024, 02:10:12 PMI haven't seen anyone else talking about the recent hi-res images of the figures, so I guess I'll break the ice.

I don't think they look very good at all. I think they look pretty bad. It's such a shame because the sculpts are very detailed, but the paint is so sloppy that it ruins them. I especially can't stand how they attempted to paint the faces. Capsule Plarail managed to do figures much better, and they understood that it's better to not paint eyes and mouths at this scale. It's almost laughable how poorly these turned out.

They could be prototypes for all we know lets not get ahead of ourselves.

Bachmann replied to someone on Facebook saying: "These are preproduction paint samples. Final products will have an improved finish."

Out of the four mentioned, I would like to see Whiff first.

However, if they are going to release duos, could they announce Porter seeing as Salty is getting a rerelease?

If we got repaints, I would love to see scrapped Oliver and Toad.

Most likely a factory error, I have the Diesel with the buffers painted wrong.

Just curious, could these connect with the Skarloey engines?

I hope people get their most wanted, but I do feel like people are expecting too much, and they are going to leave themselves disappointed.

I hope we get new characters, because repaints of the same characters would be very lackluster for me.

I would love some non rail characters to be reveled, but I think that is too high hopes haha.


I don't mind recolor engines, heck I would love to see a chocolate covered percy be a thing. Similar how this one was made by a japanese modeler 12 years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1t7zyHNdFk If busy bee james can be a thing then lets see "Bon Bon Percy" be a thing. And also a glow in the dark henry like in that one CGI episode where henry was painted with glowing green paint instead of normal green paint.

I don't mind engine recolors, I just don't want 2 repaints of a character in the span of a year.

I would this to somehow be Hiro.

They need to redo Thomas, Percy James, Gordon and Henrys toolings before even considering Spencer.

While Thomas, Percy and James need better faces, what's wrong with Henry & Gordon?

I thought about this recolor that may or may not work.



Or perhaps a simple repaint of their black wheels to red will work better.

Did the Thomas Team ever explain why they changed Bill & Ben's wheel to red?
