IMO, Bachmann is the only high-quality Thomas merchandise line left. I'd like to count Thomas Wooden Railway, but Mattel hasn't done anything really useful with the line in two years and I highly doubt they'll do so in 2025.

So the Sodor train brought a huge smile. 😊 I also like the action brought to your layout by the windmill. I like the Tar tankers too.

My predictions for 2025 HO Scale Engines: Diesel 10, Nia, Whiff, and possibly Hiro if Rebecca sells well. HO Scale Rolling Stock: Troublesome Truck #7, Bradford, and possibly Hannah since she’s already being made in N scale. G Scale Engines: Duck, Edward, LBSC Thomas, and Black James G Scale Rolling Stock: Troublesome Truck #3 and 4 N Scale Engines: Edward, Sidney, Oliver, Duck, and Spencer N Scale Rolling Stock: Tar Tanker, Troublesome Truck #3 and 4, and Raspberry Syrup Tanker If any of these get called next year, it’ll be prayers answered.

@trainboy4827 күн бұрын
I’m very stoked of what we’re getting this year from Bachmann. With all the announcements of Rebecca being released and Stanley already being made, we’re getting even more promises this year of summer! HO Scale: Engines First I wished for them to make Ryan and they did, then I wished for them to make Stanley and they are, now as of this month they’re making Sidney! AND BOY OH BOY AM I SURPRISED ABOUT THIS, MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED A-LOT 😃😁🤩!!! Sidney is a character that I’ve been asking for a while, he’s one of my favorite characters in Thomas and his only spotlight episode in Season 20 Sidney Sings is solid! Will soon have all recolors 5 of the (Main) Class 08 Engines: Diesel, Arry, Bert, Paxton and Sidney. If there’s one thing I’m worried about as of now is eye mechanism, from what I keep hearing is when they made Paxton his eyes are a bit far apart. So I hope they don’t do the same for Sidney, either than that I’m so happy to see him added on the range and whatever price he’s at I’ll definitely buy this character. Don’t got much to say about the Mainland Diesel, other than good luck for whoever wants him and maybe even recreate a scene from Journey Beyond Sodor. Rolling Stocks The Flatbed Wagon with Diesel Fuel Load is cool and by the way the name of that Season 8 episode is actually called Thomas to the Rescue, I’ll be sure to buy it for certain. Its awesome they brought back the Tar Tankers and man do they look good, neat that they updated it by adding the text on the front like how it appears in the Season 23 episode Chucklesome Trucks(a episode in which I haven’t seen yet)! N Scale: (I’m not a huge fan of N Scale, but they do look cool to see.) Engine Its no shock (to me at least) that we’re getting Henry since lots of people have been asking him multiple times and now all we need left is Edward to complete the Steam Team. Rolling Stock The Ton Brake Van is neat and Hannah is very interesting choice, I imagine their gonna use the same chassis like they did with Henrietta. All in all, I can definitely say that 2024 really seems to be a promising year and there’s nothing more than I can ask for! THANK YOU SO MUCH BACHMANN ESPECIALLY ON THE HO SCALE, THIS VERY PROMISING THAN I THOUGHT!!!💯👍🏾😉

So how come they’re not releasing Hannah in HO Scale but also in N scale? She does have the same basis as Henrietta as she is her sister
@merlinandmurdoch783715 күн бұрын
Because Henrietta’s HO scale model does not have a face, and the windows surrounding where her face would be are a different mould, they would have to remould Henrietta if they were to make Hannah. Most likely Hannah is not going to be made in HO/OO, it will be too expensive to redo her.

Bro predicted the future, N scale Henry is now coming. Also I never noticed that Bachmann followed their pattern from their G scale range. After Henry Edward will definitely be next (possibly red branch line coaches, Percy’s Mail cars, and maybe some red express coaches)
