GIANT TOMY Thomas The Tank Unboxing Totally Awesome Classic Thomas Toy

THOMAS GIANT SET Tomy Tomica unboxing and toy train inspection. This Thomas & Friends toy is an insight into how different Thomas toys used to be. This toy is expensive to purchase and difficult to find in good condition. This Thomas toy was purchased on e-bay but sadly the very rare box was damaged because of the very poor wrapping of reversed single layer christmas paper. The first contact with a buyer is very important, and my relationship with this e-bay seller is now totally over. This Thomas set uses TOMY blue track and came with Big Thomas, Thomas (bonus engine broken unable to run), James, Duck, Diesel, Toad, Sodor Rolling Stock and Annie and Clarabel. The toy within the box was in excellent condition, so sad the way it was wrapped totally destroyed what would have been an excellent sale.
This Thomas video is a re-upload after legal threats from the seller. The info related to the seller's e-bay site has been removed in this video and a follow up video was made explaining my case related to the way this parcel was delivered. Hopefully this Thomas e-bay seller learned some valuable lessons when dealing with customers. First impressions are very important.

[@gonk-on]

this brings back so many memories, I used to and still have a whole load of this track and those electric trains. They were so fun. I've got the helicopter that spins around and has magnets on so you can load trains up and then had a restock station. Gave me hours of entertainment, will have to get it out sometime again

May i have it i love vintage tomy track and trains

When leo saw Thomas's face at 11:07, he is loved.

[@hat6414]

Does anyone remember these giant Thomas sets? Those were awesome.

[@qwertyzO]

When I was little, my father would bring me to a swapmeet every Saturday for a few hours. One day, I found one of these giant Tomy Thomas's and would ask my dad to get it. Surprisingly, it was fairly cheap at around 18 dollars. Now it sits in my room containing all the Tomy and Trackmaster 1 & 2 trains that I have right now.

[@ttteproductions7609]

Bruh your lucky as hell I could never find this I hate life 😡

[@chazzywaz]

You’re so lucky

[@Daisysdomain]

I bought one of these when they were in the shops here in the UK. Why did i EVER give this to a friend with young children. Nice to know that at least three of these have a safe future.

[@PMT2Productions]

That Thomas is actually relatively hard to find. See how the boiler bands are painted red, and the eyes are painted white on the original TOMY face? That version was only available in the Chinese Dragon set, I think.

[@ShortStumpyEngine]

Hey Leo, I had the same clutch problem with one of my Thomas's but it was pretty easy to fix. all you have to do is this. Take off the shell, take out the motor, take off the connecting rods to take out the wheels and add a small drop of super glue in the wheel gear. and put the Thomas back together

[@Bobman84]

To be fair if nothing was damaged then it's not a big deal. Even the best packaged item can get ripped apart in Australia Post's sorting machines :( You're right about the tape over edges though.

[@bladeobrian2144]

Ah, I remember getting this for Christmas when I was about 5! I still have the tracks, the rolling stock, and most of the engines, but not giant Thomas! He definitely fell apart and deteriorated over the years and likely ended up in a goodwill bin or something.

[@alanthevideomaker646]

wow Leo you are lucky to have the old Thomas Merchandise it really shows how good the Thomas Toys used to be back in the 80's to early 2000's

Thank you for that Leo, and to give you a bit of hope, your channel has inspired some of the most successful Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends youtube channels: TurtlesandThomas, The Unlucky Tug, Wildnorwester, EnterprisingEngine93, DieselD199, many more, and my own. Your work does have meaning, you produce content that isn't click bait, guttertrash, foul, or uncaring. You haven't sold out and from the limited view that I've seen of you from your videos you seem to be a good person.

[@Trainfan13Official]

GreatWesternLegacy, I agree with you on that, as many others should

[@unknownuserdude171]

is this a reupload? and can u one day make a giant layout of a ton of your blue track with these giant thomas's that would be amazing to see

[@hazzardcountystudios2029]

leokim i had that thomas set as a kid.... i loved the giant thomas. also there was a large battery compartment somewhere under the large thomas. idk what it did though. i wish they made more characters in that giant scale like duck percy mavis bill ben etc.

[@EngineShedStudios]

The problem with that Thomas (it came the very rare Chinese dragon by the way) is that the gear on the drive axle is cracked so you have to get him a new wheel set or change the gear

[@number39utopiaminecrafter30]

i had one of those as a kid, brings back memories, but for me i got it for $100 and the funnel was already on

[@thetraingamer2481]

[@user-zh1di5ni3m]

To be honest, I don't want eBay to get killed. You made good points in this video. I'm not defending eBay, but eBay is way cheaper than amazon. I've had good luck on eBay, but it is a little more risky than amazon. Amazon is more professional, and no knockoffs are sold on it. In my opinion, eBay shouldn't get killed, but it's flaws and problems need to be addressed and resolved.

[@leokimvideo]

Amazon is about to launch in Australia. Maybe it will give e-bay here a big wake up call. If e-bay sellers can't get the basics right it affects the whole site. I think thats where e-bay will fail. It only takes a few bad apples to ruin the feel of e-bay.

[@vodka2432]

I have a wooden railway skarloey, Annie, clarabel, and unknown engine tender that have almost all of their paint missing. They are very very old, and I got them from a family friend. :D

[@YimYum911]

28:17 it started moving when you closed it

[@jamesedwards9857]

On the big Thomas there is a white switch, located on the side between the rear and the middle wheel that when in a certain position will either lock the wheels or allow it to free wheel. Kind of like how it on the smaller toys.

[@lewisdulson1916]

I want this set for duck scruffey milk cars and diesel

[@princemon27]

I like this video

[@martindotterweich4056]

I want to get those giant Thomases for cheap price.and So is the tomica X gainer train which is a little bit smaller than the giant Thomas...

[@AnubisEyes]

When I send things through ebay especially the old mint in box robot toys i sold i just make a custom cardboard box and i bubble wrap the item and then i fill the remaining space with packing peanuts. As for your channel I check it everyday. I have a question, in your banner who is the super hero in it?

[@inactivechannel266]

AnubisEyes it's astroboy

[@kennymccormickun-private8201]

I SUPER ULTRA DUPER WANT THIS BADLY!

[@thehexagongamer2390]

loveleokim..... been watching him for soooo long....

[@edwardholder429]

What I like about the box is that it says thomas the tank engine and friends instead of just thomas and friends to me it shows that classic aspect.

[@maeva3632]

Because that intro wasn't creepy at all O.O Also I completely agree with you, the seller could've taken just a bit more effort to protect the box, that's just completely ridiculous

[@jackwooding8324]

I bought a Japanise talknaction Percy and it had a broken connected so it held by wire

Hi leokim, found a NIB paperface online and like you said it was too good to be true, it was reboxed so I got the seller to refund me and it ended up only costing me $5 for it in the end. it's still in perfect shape, just a shame I was duped into a non-NIB item

[@ruubensoto7754]

Hey Leo I miss your toys review I watch it since 2011 or 2012 I forgot, but I miss it. :(

[@user-zh1di5ni3m]

3 years later, but I’d figure I’d tell you something about Ebay. Don’t do auctions. If you’re like me, with incredible bad luck, it’s better to just go Buy it Now. The auctions can really give your bank account a hit, and the only way you’ll win the auction is to come in 5 seconds before the bidding ends with the winning price. You’ll come across the occasional bad shipper, I bought an ertl golf rail Thomas nib for my birthday two years ago, but it came in a postage bag with no pillowing at all. The box was dented and had a hole in it. What made it hurt was I bought it for under 10 USD, a good price for that item. The trick with eBay is to keep trying, the buy it now selections has a better guarantee you’ll get what you want. It’s also a good way to get an idea how much something is worth. Hope this helps

[@MyPaigeAwesome]

Hey leo do you have the "2001 Ertl Thomas Book" ? Its really interesting. Its actually a legit full working thomas toy but it opens up like a book. Wheels moving and everything.

[@sihosychaleun3653]

I had the same problem with my tomy Thomas. You have to replace some of the gears in Thomas.

[@BritanniaPacific]

I wonder where you can purchase a whole bunch of second hand Thomas VHS tapes and DVDs. I have a whole bunch of them, stuff I've purchased over the years from the DVD stores back in the day. Classic Thomas shows of course.

[@studioa9728]

TheNw1218 I got a Thomas VHS Tape At My Friends Garage Sale for Free

[@Jamapax]

Leo! This toy was my childhood, I remember asking for a train set as a kid for Christmas, in my head thinking I wanted a Hornby set, regardless I was more than pleased to receive this masterpiece, ps great videos.. it might not seem like it but your doing a fantastic job

[@leokimvideo]

I did see a totally mint in box set of this on e-bay and the seller was hunting for $400. The box was sun affected but the toy inside had never been out. If the box was not damaged it would be worth the $400. The box forms a very important aspect of the price because thats the item that's often not there or heavily damaged.

[@Jamapax]

leokimvideo I don't know to much about collecting or ones desired price for certainty on an item, but I feel as tho I'd love to collect something myself, the passion you have for your Thomas collection is pretty awesome, I only wish I shared a similar passion.

[@thomaspoppyplaytime3935]

COOL

[@gabestephens9654]

Leo your so right about eBay!!!!

[@thomashatt246]

I got this set this Christmas and no pieces were missing and it’s like new

[@glup128]

Are you going to assemble this set?

[@Theogkitsu]

The clutch problem happens when the gear on the axle breaks and then it just spins. All you need to do to fix it is use a little bit of super glue.

[@professionaImoron]

IT'S BEOTIFL

[@user-bf3sv3nt4w]

I like your vids

[@Benthetrainkid]

The Thomas model included in the set could've also had a cracked gear

[@railroadmillion681]

The seller couldn't get the right packaging so he used gift wrapping which in my opinion makes it like Christmas morning. It could've been damaged during shipping.

[@user-ee8ln1ue7u]

Thomas ❤

[@grapefruits_gd-geometrydas5604]

It's rare to find one in mint condition brand new in the box with everything in it
