Advantages: Looks great on display when given the time. Disadvantages: Not for beginnners. The figures' heads, hands and feet.
Although this model is no longer available direct from Airfix there are still a good number of kits to be found in the shops or on-line in the likes of ebay, and in my opinion is worth hunting down. As a model it will offer enough interest for an experienced model-maker and when finished looks good on display, so will be of interest to Dr Who fans as well. (By the way, it also comes with the TARDIS sound effect when you open the door! The batteries are NOT included.)
The kit is well packaged and comes with paints, brushes and glue (although extra paints will be needed for the detailing). It also comes with a model Dr Who and Martha Jones. The relatively large scale means that there is a reasonable amount of fine detail on the moulding (such as surprisingly good wood-grain effect on the TARDIS), and this also means that there are few ...
Advantages: Kids just love him Disadvantages: Wacky prices
and his friends toys....
We personally have so many Thomas toys that I couldnt give you discriptions without needing a week to do it. Suffice to say that my boys spend hours playing with their Brio trains which we add too as often as possible, seeing as brio is on the more expensive side. But ebay does offer an alternative to paying out so much money, but in my experience have found that everyone wants Thomas so the bids exceed drastically, the original price.
This christmas my boys will not be let down. I have for them the usual colouring books and pens and my mother has told me that she has sent over a remote control Thomas. There is a limitless range out there, all guarenteed to keep the little uns occupied for many hours.
On closing, I want to again say Tanks Rev....you have made millions happy through taking a great passion ...

I am now 17 years old, but I do still love watching the odd Thomas The Tank Engine story very ocassionly. I grew up watching it and I had, and still do have, most of the videos and story books. I was pleased to discover that the programmes and concept is still going strong. They are continuing to make new stories and introduce more characters, both of which have some positive and negative costs. I will write everything that I know about Thomas The Tank Engine and try and gives those of you who haven't seen it before, a good idea of what it all involves.
Thomas The Tank Engine (and Friends), is a childrens programme about the trains that operate on the island of Sodor. It follows them through their ups and downs and also their funny moods and strops that they get into. Each story tends to have a message at the end of it and it ...
