To be fair, you did a fine job looking for references for Thomas and Friends in pop culture. References that I didn’t think was possible. Because I was thinking about putting together a staggering variety of parodies based on Thomas for separate studios.

The fact that there is 30 minutes of Thomas merchandise cameos is honestly surprising, even on the Thomas wiki there were so many references to Thomas in other media it could be a whole video in it or it’s self. Whether it’s video games, shows, movies, etc. there’s bound to be a Thomas reference just shows how much of a legacy the show has

Great video! I love the amount of dedication you have to go through all those fuzzy toy store screenshots too haha. I’ve seen Thomas merch in other places too. There’s a Thomas coin operated ride in an early Series 2 episode of Little Britain (in the Vicky Pollard supermarket sketch), some of the early ‘90s Only Fools and Horses Christmas specials have Thomas wallpaper in Damien’s bedroom, and the Wiki says that an early episode (possibly late ‘80s?) of Last of the Summer Wine has Hornby rolling stock in it (although with almost 300 episodes I wouldn’t want to search for that one either!). Keep up the great work!!

Also in the same episode, the roaring sound used for Jumbo the Elephant in Henry and the Elephant was used for one of the Monsters that was chasing Erin and Marty.

Sherlock comments that it was ‘much too complicated for one of his children to have assembled’ and Bachmann’s Cranky set piece appears on the layout I wish I could give an episode name. But I have a photo, so there’s no doubt

This is the kind of shit that gets my autistic brain juices going. They're so minor and don't contribute anything to the story of a movie or show (mostly), but when you see them in the background, they're like unintentional easter eggs that you can't help but notice. Even though most of these cameos can easily be chalked up to set dressing, things that happen to be on store shelves or in someone's house, or props that were just needed for a scene or parody, seeing and knowing what specific toys were used is always fascinating to me. Not just for them being on-screen, but also because for some franchises like Thomas, they represent many things. Like how things used to be produced and sold back then, the quality of it, how the branding and packaging used to look, etc. They're like mini time capsules of the past.
