YO THOMAS IS IN THE GAME

[@TankEngineMedia]

I like how Thomas’s moves were incorporated with railway equipment. Like his recovery is the Breakdown Crane, one of his up move is a signal, shield are the buffers, Side B is a turntable (etc.). This mod looks really cool and I also like how his icon is from the RWS If Thomas was in smash bros this is what his move set should be!

[@mihaelalaber2084]

I know, right! It's so awesome to see the creator of the mod actually incorporating that kind of stuff into it! You can tell he's a real RWS fan

[@zacharymacleod1146]

I feel like this character doesn't have the most fititng moveset. You'd expect a train to go fast horizontally, have poor recovery, and hit like a truck. Instead, you got slow movement and aerial juggles… Not enough was done with the whole 'facing one direction' gimmick either. That said, there's clearly a lot of effort put in this character and I appreciate that the creator actually made an AI for it.

[@LinklightToo]

Yeah I feel like there was so many different ways the character could be interpreted. Was very interesting regardless. Thank you for the donation! :)

[@DoctorFlux]

the reason why he is slow: becuase it is a steam train still : the slower kind of trains aswell as i had to make it fit with the balance of the game and he is a heavy weight and feel like a heavy weight like him needed to be slow and bad jumps: i tried with better speed and so on and he felt abit TOO powerful with really good movement also he has ultimate Steve like jab/Tilt and Utilt/Uair so that was also the reason why i needed him to be slow like this also Nspecial is Melee Fox Shine basically but need to hit for jump canceland interact abit with Down-Special train signals also made it so you can do aerials or air dodge cancel the moment the crane releases you and you have super armor while moving up on the crane

[@flashbeat9521]

I feel there's a reason why that was made cause could you imagine the insane amount of tech one would have to use and you wouldn't be able to make mistakes like that

[@nathanmitchellthegamerz6858]

@@LinklightToo do hank j wibleton pico and the new huggy wuggy custom character mod for rivals of aether workshop nest after thomas

[@RyebuckCoppercap]

@@DoctorFlux I feel the slow movement fits Thomas well; although steam locomotives can achieve great speeds (the speed record being Mallard's 144mph, and multiple other express engines being able to reach 100+mph like City of Truro and Flying Scotsman), they are famously slow to start and stop, not only due to their inherent inertia, but also due to how slow their initial buildup of steam can be, which when taking the fighting setting it means that Thomas ends up doing very short runs on stage, making it rather fitting that he's slow :3

[@TheCreativeType]

“Who knew Thomas was such a toxic train?” Oh, you have NO idea.

[@RyebuckCoppercap]

Haha yeah, Thomas is such a little gremlin of an engine half the time xD

[@WeegeeMaro]

“You’re too fat, you need exercise!”

[@itsyaboyjadester]

“Wake up, lazybones! Do some hard work for a change!” “Rubbish! You’re too fat you need exercise!” Both said by Thomas, and these are only two examples 😭

[@RyebuckCoppercap]

Honestly the dialogue in the early seasons can get quite intense lol Another great one by Thomas is "You're ugly face is enough to frighten anyone! You're like a green caterpillar with red stripes! You crawl like one, too!" And Thomas isn't the only one, _all_ of the engines get into this bickering hehe, it's great ;p

[@itsyaboyjadester]

@@RyebuckCoppercap Oh, yeah! Particularly the three big engines (Gordon, James, Henry)

[@DoctorFlux]

mod creator here: nice to see you like the mod the shield animation is just the buffers at end of the tracks the character was a meme-y pick but i did want to also make it true to source aswell Thomas has Steve Jab/Forward Tilt / Uair/Utilt so you can move and jump while doing them with Melee fox shine jump cancel on hit on Nspecial basically kinda good reason i did made him slow-ish becuase of that also there is a 3rd model/resprite skin change for Toby the tram engine

[@witifulweavile2272]

If you really are the mod creator, you've single handedly made me want to play rivals, congratulations

[@thespy.official]

"I was only goong 27 over!" "Thomas, you ran over a child." "Oh fuck me, is that what that was?"

[@crazydaysinfinte]

That “cow catcher” is actually a snow plow and the shield is a pair of buffers, the crane also never changed one was just on a bridge and the “fart” was him flashing his tail lamp and the sign is actually a signal, and the spinning is the engines spinning on a turn table

[@RayStriker3]

Thank you

[@Vien1275]

“Who do you main?” “Thomas the tank engine.”

[@M644theawesome]

If your game can be modded, there will always be a Thomas mod, no matter what

[@hazarddragoonfang3482]

I believe the Shield is supposed to be the buffers, and what is used to turn the engines around at 3:28 is a turntable, used to turn locomotives around. The big white sign is a signal. The platform at 6:05 is a station, and the man on the platform is Sir Toppam Hat (or the Fat Controller as his engines call him). He's the engines owners. And the "Cowcatcher" is a snowplow

[@ScarfNJam]

The devs definetly did their research, all of the moves are predominantly based on the 1st series, and they even used the original illustrations as the logos!

[@Coucho969]

I like how they added the turntable move,it reminded me of James going like a bayblayed

[@Winstonthescottshgsrk2]

He’s not a train he’s a tank engine also that’s the railway series, Thomas

[@atles_artz1152]

I think we should have someone who actually knows what they’re talking about when it comes to this mod

[@ryleeculla5570]

Personally as a Thomas the tank engine fan I love this just wish that all the engines were actually on their bases from the show and not just Thomas and Percy just imagine a miniature engine cooking with combos

[@dhomasthe]

Thomas the tank engine, rolling along. (wo-ho-wo-ho) (wo-ho-wo-ho). And all of his friends will be coming along. Thomas, we love you.

[@jdstudios7446]

I love the fact that Percy an actual steam train won against Goku.

[@maxthompson7107]

Makes me wonder if Goku ever actually had to fight against a life size train before.

[@TheCreativeType]

Some move and term clarifications: Jab: Head lamp flash Backtilt: Tail lamp flash Down B: Place a signal - whistling raises the signals Side B: Turntable - rotates an engine, hence why it’s the only way to change directions Recovery: Breakdown Train/Breakdown Crane Forward smash: Ram with Snowplow (not a cow catcher) Up smash: Danger signal Down smash: Level crossing gates Shield: Buffers/end track stop Taunt: Station platform + Sir Topham Hatt This definitely isn’t a meme mod, this was made deliberately based on Thomas directly.

[@TheCreativeType]

7:04 That’s actually the same breakdown crane, it just spawned on the stage terrain rather than a bridge in the background

[@ryleeculla5570]

All the skins are 1-10 of the characters from the show and the real engine skin is Thomas’s actual colors of his class the E2’s

[@Oswald150]

As a Thomas fan I love all the references to the show

[@Tophams_No.6]

Love to see ppl who aren't fans of the show genuinely enjoy it. P.S try not to call em trains. Fandom will go ballistic lol

[@mattevans4377]

The design is very much when you emphasize the TANK in TANK engine

[@clockwork3494]

As a train nerd, a really neat detail is seeing the lamps swap colours depending on what direction you're going. The back lamp will typically be red with the front ones clear, however upon reversing the colours will swap which is accurate to most engines and the general operation of railways, especially if running a push/pull service since red typically indicates the back of a train. So when you're reversing, the front of the engine now becomes the back.

[@marky.prosonicgamer9999]

This is an amazing mod Although as a train buff like not shaming you or anything but it's painful to see someone gets so much wrong about your hyperfixation😂

[@FoolishEvan]

Thomas' shield is a thing called a 'buffer' (which in the show is sorta helpful to stop trains from crashing)

[@Ghidoramon42069]

If there was one character I would recommend, it would be the "10 Hour Burst Man" which recently got made and I would argue is comedic and powerful!

MOVES EXPLAINED: 2:50 A red Signal, means trains must stop. Enemy takes Damage when being hit by Red. 3:27 a Turntable, makes Trains turn around 3:44 The Breakdown Train, A crane on Rails to pick up trains and put them back on the track if they derail 4:16 a Snowplough, to shove snow off the tracks. 4:40 a Home Signal, different variant of signals 5:04 A Crossing Gate to prevent cars getting hit by trains on railroad crossings (just a british thing) 5:42 a Buffer stop, prevents trains from going off the tracks, commonly found at the end of the tracks

[@SvanTowerMan]

That 5 PM music from the original Animal Crossing is the height of nostalgia for me! I'd come home from school and play it and check up on my friends in the various towns my family had. Boy, those were the days. I still think that's the best AC game by far... Incidentally, Thomas the Tank Engine is also the height of nostalgia for me.

[@BLUE_fastestThingAlive]

[@frt1422]

My childhood has been fulfilled. Finally, there's a Thomas mod of that! There are some references I know and like: References: 2:00 - I just wanna ask: Why does Thomas have multiple engine costumes? That's kinda weird, but... okay.... 2:13 - Okay, that's a movie reference to the 2015 Movie: The Adventure Begins 2:22 - That's a legit reference to his real-life counter part; the LB&SCR 0-6-0 E2 Class Tank Engine 2:50 - That's a Signal, which tells the engine when to stop or when to go. Good reference. 3:03 - That's a reference to some episodes of Thomas & Friends, when the engines are waiting at a signal, they'll sometimes blow their whistles to get the attention of the signalman (the one operating the signals and the switches) 3:27 - Yo no way Percy became a Beyblade. Just kiddin', that's another equipment used in the show, the turntable. It turns the engine to another direction. But this goes to another level. Probably that turntable idea is inspired from episode to Season 1 Episode 15: Tenders and Turntables, in which one of the characters, James (the red engine), gets dizzy on the turntable as it spins around so fast due to the wind. 3:44 - That's the breakdown train. It lifts up things back onto the ground, such as engines, and coaches, and trucks. Good idea here. 4:15 - That's the snowplow or the cowcatcher (whichever country you are in), but it's mostly called a snowplow in the TV show, which plows things off the line. 4:41 - That's a danger signal. No, wait. That's a backing signal! (lol, a reference to Season 2 Episode 7: Percy and the Signal) 5:05 - That's a level crossing. It will open for trains to pass through but will close for the cars to stop, and then vise versa. 5:18 - That's a good reference design. That's based of the Railway Series. 5:52 - Buffers: Which stops the engines from crashing. 5:57 - That's a cool reference, and it includes the Fat Controller (the man in-charge of the railway), saying one of his famous lines: "You're a Really Useful Engine!" Errors: 2:17 - Rosie's name is spelled wrong. Things I love about it: 2:24 - YO NO WAY! GAMEBOY THOMAS?!?! That's what I need! This is, by far, the BEST Thomas mod I've ever seen. Thank you so much my bro, for showcasing this!
