Honestly, Japan are masterminds when it comes to Thomas toys. Their detail and quality is absolutely stellar.

As a Japanese Thomas fan, I’m SO glad to see Thomas culture born in our country! Thank you so much Tug!!

[@1newfieland]

Worst part is that they are so expensive online for a literally capsule gum ball machine

[@BrennerEraFan]

@@1newfieland How expensive? Like 50, 100?

[@1newfieland]

@@BrennerEraFan No but there literal capsule wind up toys they shouldn’t be so expensive

[@ToastTheThe]

​​@@BrennerEraFanit's like 40-70 dollars for like 20 of them

[@DanGamingFan2846]

Congratulations on 60K subscribers. You deserve it after all of KZbin's nonsense this year. I love that Tomy put so much detail and quality into these tiny figures. And the finish is gorgeous. Very impressive collection.

Ya congrats brother. You're gonna make it to a 100k by t the end of the year. Glad to see the new channel growing after the crap youtube did.

[@justinkwong8071]

This is the only merch line that feels like it is paying close enough attention to be able to know exactly what the fans want and deliver. The ingenuity and cleverness in the gimmicks like Owen's lift is one thing, but little by little, we are seeing old favourites return into relevance. We got Duck and Terence last year after a long absence, and this year we saw Boco and Fergus return. Paxton, Sidney, and Merrick were brand new items introduced this year too. Subtle improvements are also seeping in, such as the matte finish on the engines as of this month, gold whistles replacing the standard yellow ones, and James finally getting black wheels. This merch line is one of the best and so many people out there don't know about it. Maybe that will change thanks to this video! I believe Capsule Plarail has benefitted from the regular Thomas and Friends show ending. No longer restrained or obligated to make their toys based on the current material in order to stay relevant, they are now free to make all kinds of series based on whatever themes they want, whether that be CGI episode-derived toys or based on a past movie. Capsule has always been very independent, but they've had to stick to a regiment that still required them to make themed sets that followed closely to the show, as any merch line would do. But now that the show has ended, I'm seeing a lot more creative freedom in their choices last year and this year. We got a series released themed entirely on Bill and Ben and the characters they pranked, which allowed Edward and Boco to come back. Now that guys like Nia and Rebecca don't have to appear every single time thanks to the restraints of BWBA being tossed out the door, we can get a bigger variety of characters and items to look forward to. These toys are full of surprises.

[@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho]

If only Mattel could've been the same with Wooden Railway 2.0. The rumored All Engines Go items (Carly, Kana, and Sandy) haven't released and I get the feeling that the whole thing has been discontinued. A shame, really. WR2022 had some banger items (my only experience with the range is Rosie, Edward, and Henry, and they're all fantastic) and I'd've loved to have seen what certain characters would've looked like had the line lasted longer. Here's a pitch for what "Wave 4" (I'm counting the potential wave with Carly, Kana, Sandy, and McColl's Farm with Terence as Wave 3) might look like: *Duck* *Oliver* w/ *Toad* (done similarly to Nia and the Animal Park van) *Donald* *Douglas* (with an RWS-accurate blue variant for the 80th anniversary) *Ryan* (finally made as big as he needs to be) *Daisy* *S.C. Ruffey* (we've already got the majority of the Little Westerners, why not throw in the most recognizable truck?) *Express Coach* (for Gordon and Rebecca to pull) *Henrietta* (for Toby) *Bertie* (we need road vehicles that aren't Kevin, dang it!) *Harold* *Annie and Clarabel* (different tooling from the ones included with Knapford) *Down the Hills and Round the Bends Track Pack* (full of ascending track and risers) *Windmill* (comes with an exclusive variant of Toby with a smiling face) *Sodor Shipping Yard Set* (big ticket item for the year. Includes an exclusive Edward with a determined face and blushing cheeks, a flatbed, an exclusive brake van, a barrel loader, a water tower, a coal hopper, a generic crane, and a bridge)

[@fanofeverything30465]

Wave 4 could be out soon

[@anthonybarber3220]

These are definitely an example of how small fun size toys should be made. The minis were also in that category. I miss them.

[@emersoninfinitystone5785]

Congratulations on 90K Tug!. 🎉 Let's keep pushing forward to get back up to the magic 200,000. The Capsule Plarail Collection is another example that bigger isn't always better. The smaller, cuter toys is really all a fan prefers to digest sometimes. It's one of the most nostalgic and quality made lines of TTTE merchandise. It's also kinda funny though how most of the road vehicles seem to be the best looking ones in my opinion... Byron, George, Trevor, Isabella & Ned are easily my favourites. As for the engines i'd give first prize to Diesel 10, Fergus, Harvey, Neville, Stephan & Theo, and no shocker Judy, Jerome & Toad are the best rolling stock. Any character that has accurate TV Series proportions and detail i give a gold star to. ⭐

[@JoePCool14]

Smaller usually works much better actually. It means the items might be cheaper, which definitely helps, but more importantly, you can save so much space while having more. That's why I went with smaller model cars when I started buying them for example.

[@Masteroftherailvideo]

glad Thomas culture is still going strong to this day

[@ChickVicious237]

I grew up with Thomas, my younger sister watched Shining Time station on PBS every afternoon in the early 90's and she had a number of Thomas/Brio toys. My son has developed Thomas fever as well, and his older half-brother (after collecting loads of train toys for years) gave his entire Thomas collection to his younger bro. We got a single little wind-up Skarloey with all the other pieces and I never knew where he came from. Very cool, this Skarloey was a favorite of both boys.

[@joshuaW5621]

I don’t have a lot of Capsule Plarail toys, but I gotta say they’re pretty cool. Especially with the wide abundance of character variants. It’s a shame they aren’t available outside Japan anymore.

[@vanessasandoval96]

I wish I had all Thomas Trackmaster of all characters why they still made them in eBay

[@Ryder-a-Blaze]

Congrats on 60K subs Tug, you’ve done very well to get this far!

[@Ryder-a-Blaze]

When I first discovered Capsule Plarail I used to call it the Thomas chibi toys, I guess that means Thomas is an anime.

[@TheSouthernSteamThing]

“This video is brought to you by my loyal patrons” never gets old

[@MiggleTheSmeghog]

I wonder if tug is aware of the Tomy Thomas diecasts. Those things are criminally underrated.

[@nococoforboco5538]

Congrats on 60K Tug. Always loved Capusle Plarail as you got to respect the variety and consistency they have had for more than 20 years.

[@PepsiTrain26]

Fact: Originally, the playback blue mountain mystery series was meant to be the final series for the original Thomas and friends series for capsule plarail. However, that info has been removed. I don’t know if they decided against that or not.

[@PepsiTrain26]

Quick update on this: The blue mountain mystery playback series is the final classic Thomas series to be made. Honestly, I’m not gonna hate the all engines go line, In fact, I might pick up Percy and Bruno.

[@AbbeyYard]

Never owned any Capsule Plarail toys but this makes me want to start collecting

[@greenobeeno1]

The boats look so good!!! Makes me wish they had the rights to make these for Tugs.

[@UsefulEngine11]

Man capsule plarail is so diverse with engines and what they make. I really want to get my hands on the capsule figures to go with my wooden railway engines but I wouldn't mind collecting some of the actual engines from the line myself. Although I realize you don't have Mighty Mac which is a shame because I think they look really cool when capsule plarail hopefully you get them one day. Keep up the good work Nic!

[@RPGFlare64]

31:28 WELCOME STANLEY!!!

[@callum110597]

Wow, so impressive. I didn't bother in Capsule Plarail, but those toys look so impressive! I'm glad Tomy is still doing good toys of Thomas in Japan!

I was not expecting this to be the new collection! It’s always a good day when the tug posts!

Ever since the Tomy Plarail collection I predicted you might as well had this collection, the only thing I never expected was that you started it with the Jack and The Pack collection

[@MisterDanielTofu]

Amazing how detailed the Capsule Plarail models are.

[@toby.fan9198]

I remember watching Capsule Thomas’ videos back in 2013?-2017, so this line is extremely nostalgic for me

[@TheAutisticCapricorn811]

I gotta say, Unlucky Tug, your train collection videos are super great. I love every one of your models of the realistic locomotives and your T&F collection. And this video will help get parents to buy out the stock markets of every Thomas merchandise for their kids. Man, I could look forward into collecting a hoard of trains myself, but alas paying bills, utilities, and other stuff always gets in the way of everything to make myself prioritized. Aw well 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@ItsCarlos563]

Congratulations on 60k subscribers, Tug. Cheers and keep up the good work! It's crazy to think that Capsule Plarail has made nearly every single character from the franchise.

[@smugpug558]

It’s so hard to stay consistent when collecting TTTE merch. There are so many good Thomas toys out there, Capsule Plarail included.

[@Ninja11125]

60K IS CRAZY CONGRATS

[@yoshivsjoshi]

I’m a G scale Bachmann Thomas collector but the little pull back ones are cool, this is great!

Update: Original Capsule Plarail Thomas is not dead. A new pack has been announced with the original Thomas capsule plarail range.

[@johnkitchenjr162]

You know it’s going to be a Good Friday when the unlucky tug posts

[@ABellEngine]

Your Capsule Plarail Collection is very impressive. The collection videos are some of my favorite videos from your channel. Capsule Plarail is one of my favorite Thomas & Friends toy lines and this video did not disappoint. I also want to say congratulations on 60K subscribers!

[@Lightninging63]

I just realized Salty is missing his cap in both variants you have of him! Everything else about the ol' sea dog is perfect

[@ZergSmasher]

Neat collection! It's amazing the kind of stuff the Japanese put inside a vending machine.

[@wyattgoralski818]

Prior to watching this, I had very little familiarity with this line, but now I find it to be one of the most well-developed, most well-made toy lines for all of Thomas. And what a wonderful collection you've got. I also remember you making a little video showcasing some of your Tomy plarail capsule Thomas toys on a little layout on an office floor with a close-up of your Victor in the thumbnail, but unfortunately it's gone now with the old channel being terminated. I wonder if you or someone else has that saved somewhere, because sadly it's not on that archive drive you had linked on your Season 6 video.

[@jameslisterthemarthplayer8322]

I actually have the Capsule Plarail variant of Percy with the goggles he wore in his dream sequence in Calling All Engines!, which was a very middle of the road movie in my opinon.

[@joshuaW5621]

If Fergus was made in Plarail, they’d likely design him to be a pull along, similar to Theo.

[@stepneydr_n.5561]

Probably

[@Steamerthesteamtrain]

One thing I like about this line of toys is that the humans are about the size of HO/OO.

[@brendanhanley2741]

Great job on hitting 60,000 mate you earned it

[@spyfan62591]

He is on his way back to 200,000k :)

I absolutely love the capsule plarail range it’s definitely one of my favorite ranges to collect, great video tug and congrats on 60k subscribers well deserved!

[@Donald9anddouglas10]

Another great tugs video. He always makes the best videos and I was not expecting this video to come. But I gotta admit you cant really dislike capsule playrail. I hope you all have a great day and I send my love ❤ to the unlucky tug. I will be excited for the holiday season coming up and to see tugs video. I want a tugs christmas video. Hope to see you next week. Bye. P.s. i am wanted and hopeing that tug calls me out in one of his video because id like more subscribers,views, and mentions in peoples vids since i returen the favor

[@dcbandit]

Somebody could make a Thomas KZbin show with these, considering how there are many of the same character with different expressions. Wouldn't need as much effort, but it would need a setting made for it.

[@overusedenginesproductions]

Yes sir been waiting for this for a while now

[@roadandrailstudios5216]

We need something like this in Europe and the USA.

[@LazyOldFusspot_3428]

It's always great when Tug uploads a new vid. Also I actually haven't heard of this collection set of toys, but they actually look neat on paper ngl. My favourite one as seen in the vid has got to be the Angry Henry capsule. His face looks like as if it was taken straight out of the show itself. Absolutely perfect.

[@TheFrontLoaderStudios]

10:22 den is seen with a face like this in the episode where we and dart are separated..the scene is where he biffs the trucks at the quarry too hard and they fall off the tracks. Dart is seen with that sad face in the same episode

[@billygames9161]

always nice to see a new unlucky tug video also how much for the billy?

[@kboy1158]

Wish these got sold in the United States because these capsule plarail look like a lot of fun to collect and play.

[@FortheloveofThomas84]

It would be awesome if they were released outside of Japan but that's likely not going to happen due to licensing issues outside Japan

[@merlinandmurdoch7837]

There was an American version of this line, some of the existing toys were released in it, it’s called ‘Wind-ups’

[@Dun145]

I wish one day have one of those with matte finish but well Congrats for the 60k tug i hope you make much way too far in the future of the channel ✨☺️❤️

[@knapford.]

i love capsule plarailso much, they're cute little baby versions of normal plarail!

[@mayoroicjre]

Shane is always a character I wish would get some merch. I know he has a plarail, I think, but he doesn't have a wooden railway merch, would really like more Shane merch

[@GARILENA]

12:51 duke has buffers for some reason.

[@numptypootis8012]

Fergus is quite an odd one, his wheels are gauged to 00 so of you did file his flanges down to fit properly he'd run on 00 gauge track easily.

[@Ever_2008_ARG]

I love how a completely unrelated country made much better quality content than the origin country or any other country that knows about Thomas

[@roadandrailstudios5216]

[@dragoworrior1198]

This episode is godly

[@KingKuron_]

Man, I actually have a few of these from my childhood in Thailand! I think I have the Shocked James, Lady, and basic Caroline.

[@sealionstudios8597]

Wow, I never knew these existed but they look great. Just out of interest: would the Narrow Guage and Small Engines fit in scale with the larger Plarail models?

[@merlinandmurdoch7837]

Yeahs

[@TheStickCollector]

I suppose it is nice to see these back.

[@themistakeisintentional-dn5df]

The narrow gauge engines look _waaay_ more natural in this capsule form when paired up with normal plarail/trackmaster standard gauge engines.

[@SudricAdventures]

Amazing collection!

[@joshuaW5621]

Capsule Plarail vehicles the Unlucky Tug is missing: * Yong Bao * Nia * Rebecca * Lorenzo * Sonny * Paxton * Sidney * Hugo * Kenji * Mighty Mac * Millie * Other express coaches * Sugar van * Motor car * Luggage wagons * Chinese dragon * Jet engine * Monkey truck * White and green narrow gauge coaches * Regular Bulgy * Monty * Ace * Harold * Jeremy Characters that Capsule Plarail hasn’t done: * City of Truro * Samson * Glynn * Duchess of Loughborough * Daisy * D261/Bowler * Derek * 'Arry and Bert * Dennis * Norman * Smudger * Bertram * Proteus * Old Slow Coach * The spiteful brakevan * Bradford * The horrid lorries * Patrick * Buster * Nelson * Carly * Big Mickey * The season 12 characters * The other international characters from TGR and BWBA * Every Railway Series exclusive character

[@alessandroscidone5271]

They should even do Capsule Plarails of real life engines like: Mallard Duchess of Hamilton Green Arrow Hush Hush Daylight Tornado The Märklin Engine The Real Life Stepney

[@magnum_pig_2004]

Love these collection videos, Tug! A few questions - where is Part 2 of Every Star Wars Ranked? What is the next Sodor's Finest gonna be about? When is Season 8 of the Thomas Retrospective happening? And most importantly...where do you get the money to buy all this stuff?

[@vanessasandoval96]

What if Unlucky Tug heard about Trainz Adventure of Thomas is half model/cgi way better than AEG and what if Unlucky Tug watches the 15th movie Defenders of Sodor

[@fanofeverything30465]

Be patient

[@thomastakenplay24]

I'm not sure if they fit or so, but when I do get all the Money to buy all of these, I'll put them on my Take N Play Engines, If they fit, because my gosh, they made so many, and just taking off a face and replacing it to give a much better shot than ever is something I definitely would like to do. But, as I said these do coast a lot sometimes and are often very rare. Nice Collection you have there Tug. ❤ ❤ Also, 2 more Videos and then you reached 100 Videos on this Channel. Do you plan something for it maybe?😊

Cool

[@mentaljudge8649]

You know how you used to make photoshop for your model trains, well you should definitely do a photoshop of versions of the capsule plarail characters that are conjoined with their tenders, like Edward and James, and unconjoin them. You could do your idea with the single axel tenders or something.

[@TobyOliverHenryFan]

It’s interesting to see a new Thomas product line that I never knew existed. I “have” seen them from the TCC videos a while back, but never really knew what they were until now.

[@Xenomatic_Gaming]

I just realized that the engines without side rods look like AEG characters, but with better proportions and a smaller face

[@Nekrubbobby]

So we all know that the reason this video exists is so UT can write all of the capsules off on his taxes

[@injunghugh9617]

Small error, edition 4 Thomas and the Two Trainers which introduced Bill and Ben wasn’t released in 2005, instead, it was released in 2001. The Bill/Ben you have is from the Wind-up series, which was basically American capsules. Kinda like Trackmaster. Same with Lady; Magic Railroad edition didn’t come out in 2006.
