Great Quality but High Price!
My son is insane about Thomas the Tank engine. We try to get him as much Thomas toys as we can, but they're so expensive as you're sort of just paying for a brand/name.Here's a tip for all you parents trying to save some $$$. Do what I did and buy ONE Thomas car and get the rest from smaller companies.Here's what I bought him:1. Wooden Train Tracks 55 Pieces Full Pack - Deluxe Real Beech Wood SetThis is a train track set that I bought from a smaller company which I found to be comparable to any other track you'll find online but for a bit cheaper than the big brands.2. The Premium 12 Pcs Wooden Engines & Train Cars Collection With 3 Extra Animals + Free Gift Box DesignFrom their page I also saw this 12-piece car set which works really well with the Thomas rail-car. Again, my son thinks it's all Thomas stuff, and he gets 13 pieces in total including Thomas (which was already bought earlier.)3. Double Suspension Bridges - 2 SetLast one I got. A double suspension bridge, great quality.So yeah, buy a Thomas car and get the rest from smaller brands and save yourself a fortune. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if all this stuff came from the same factory anyways.

5.0 out of 5 stars Recommended for any toddler train or Thomas lover
Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2014

I'm ordering this for a second time, as my son lost his old one because he HAD to take Thomas with him everywhere. I gave this to him for his 3rd birthday. He has been consistently obsessed with trains for 2 solid years, and particularly his wooden train set. It was inevitable that he would eventually discover and fall in love with Thomas. For his birthday, I made him a cake in the shape of the number 3, and made tracks with melted chocolate. Then I just stuck this wooden Thomas on top, and voila, a Thomas cake (he had requested a strawberry-nilla Thomas train cake, I had to oblige). He was also very excited to play with this after its job as a cake topper was finished. He is going to be so excited when he receives his replacement Thomas for Christmas. These wooden Thomas trains are always high quality and work perfectly with the standard wooden railway sets (ours is Melissa and Doug). We are starting quite the collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adorable and fit perfectly on KidKraft train tracks
Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2013
Verified Purchase
My youngest daughter recently got a small KidKraft train set that she likes, but kept asking "where's Thomas?" I was surprised since she doesn't watch the show much. i ordered this, fingers crossed that he would fit on our train set tracks and he did. He is so cute, painted with lots of detail and was a great addition to our set.
Update- 7 months later and Thomas is still in great shape after lots of love and use. The paint holds up well to being played with and stored in a basket full of wooden train stuff. Some of the Thomas pieces can get expensive but a great value to add this to our kidkraft set.

Arrived earlier than expected and as expected from buy 4 less uk. Given that it is an international shipment it came almost 3 weeks earlier than expected. These toys are great and it's a good price at $10. I bought three different colors- Thomas, Stephen, and Luke. They were a big hit and worth the wait but I'm glad I didn't have to wait very long. These wooden trains withstand a lot of abuse from a toddler and they still look great. I keep collecting more because my little one loves to attach the magnets and choo choo them around the house. Great on rails too. Good for girls and boys!

4.0 out of 5 stars $10....? Really?
Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2015
Verified Purchase
A fifth star would have been given had this not been a $10, 3" chunk of wood and plastic. However, my 3-year-old nephew would have given it 11 stars. For what it is - a ridiculously priced blue block of wood - it sure makes him happy.

But for those who need a review of what this is to gauge your purchase, its a train. Yes, it will fit the other wooden train-track trains (also of the "Thomas" line) just fine. Yes, your toddler relative/friend will love it if they have trains and have all of Thomas' other train-friends. Thomas the train will be able to mingle just fine with them. Don't overthink it, its exactly what you think it is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thomas - He's the Cheeky One
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2014
Verified Purchase
My son loves playing with trains and has been imagining any blue train he plays with as Thomas. Since Santa brought him this Thomas for Christmas he has hardly put it down. The magnets are just the right strength, allowing the trains to connect together and make it through turns without coming apart. The standard size of the train means he can play with it on the regular wooden tracks and a 2nd set of plastic tracks that he has. It has also survived several underwater adventures and dries out well without damage to the paint or parts (so far). Unfortunately, all of the other blue trains in the house have lost the coveted status as "Thomas" and receive far less playtime but I won't bring down the real Thomas' rating because of that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great little size for little hands
Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2018
Verified Purchase
Smaller than what I thought it would be based on the picture (just a few inches long), but ended up being the perfect size for my son's little hands to hold. He doesn't use them on a track or link them together, but he likes the wheels and to carry it around.
Tip: this Thomas is wood and does not necessarily match up to other trains on Amazon. I ordered a James train too, but it was metal and the magnets link the front of Thomas to the front of James, instead of in a line. So just look into the material and connectivity before buying multiple sets. Nothing wrong with either product, so still 5 stars, just check compatability.

This is one of the original “all paint” Thomas wooden train engines. So much nicer in appearance. My purchase was new, in original packaging and arrived in first-rate condition. Seller was very careful in preparing this item for shipping, which I really appreciate. I’m pleased with my purchase and would buy from this source again.

Molto robusto e affidabile. A distanza di più di un anno non ha perso la sua integrità e neppure il fascino sui bambini. L'ho comprato come rimpiazzo di un trenino uguale facente parte di una pista che abbiamo perso e ne sono pienamente soddisfatto. Vale i soldi che costa.

5.0 out of 5 stars Super Ware mit der richtigen Farbe - Lok Thomas - Mattel Fisher-Price Y4083
Reviewed in Germany on October 30, 2018
Verified Purchase
Thomas von Mattel Fisher-Price Y4083 ist ein wunderbares Holzspielzeug für alle gängigen Schienensysteme. Dazu braucht man auch keine vielen Worte verlieren. Was aber wichtig ist: die farbliche Gestaltung ist für die Kinder wohl das wichtigste. Hier bekommen sie die Lok noch in der Farbe, wie sie in den Filmen und Büchern zu sehen ist. Die Neuauflage dieser Lok von Mattel ist farblich leider nicht gelungen und wurde von unserem Sohn nicht als Thomas akzeptiert. Unsere Lok wurde von J-Innovation aus Japan versendet. Das funktioniert gut und der Händler ist sehr freundlich, hat jede Mail sehr schnell beantwortet und hat sich immer um eine Problemlösung bemüht. Längere Lieferzeiten als von Amazon angegeben können vorkommen. Dann hängt das Paket beim deutschen Zoll fest zur Überprüfung. Bei uns drei Wochen. Der Zoll musste wohl erst feststellen, dass die Holzeisenbahn nicht explodieren kann.
