Yes, having some established classic characters would be much nicer than the "one-episode wonders" HiT's been dishing out for pure commercialism. :P

TheJJ

I mean now-a-days kids won't know BoCo or Daisy/they won't know D&D and B&B too well. Same goes for Duck and Oliver...can't they be re-released?

MetaDude27

Maybe they felt characters like Duck, Oliver, Donald, Douglas, and BoCo were too wise and mature for the show. :P Sure Edward's wise, but has anyone noticed HiT has kind of downgraded his (and everyone else's) intelligence?

hmmm... that... makes... sense...

MetaDude27

That's also why Duck, Oliver, and the Scottish Twins are my favorite characters. They're sensible and mature engines.

Who remembers Shining Time? (Not the user name) The old TV show with Stacy Jones, Billy, Mr. Conductor, Schiemer, The Shining Time Kids, and Thomas.
I know it got canceled but why? Profits were bad?

   I was mostly thinking Mavis, and in some of the episodes with toby, it was only a cameo. But, yeah, glad you enjoyed proving me wrong Sparks. ;) ::)
Are you ready for Dover Valley's Facelift?

That's very true have you noticed they always have that same rhyme scheme every time...only with different words.

Back on track (pun intended) to Diesel 10, do you think Splatter and Dodge (Splodge) should be made as well?
Bachmann never ceases to amaze me :)

MetaDude27

Would I like them to be made? Yes. Do I think they'll be made? No. They only had one appearance, after all, and that was over 10 years ago. If they appear in Day of the Diesels, they might have a shot. A small shot, but a shot nonetheless.

DinoNTrains

As always, you do have a point MetaDude27 :)
Bachmann never ceases to amaze me :)

I would rather a Diesel or Arry and Bert before S&D. But I rather diesel 10 first.
