Hey, look! Mattel finally realized they made a mistake and put paint back on the trains instead of doing that "trendy" bare wood style.

But wait, what's that? It used to look like this only 2 years ago? Don't be ridiculous!

how will you know it's not made out of artificial wood if it's covered up?

I'm not a train autist so I don't know anything about this stuff. Were those sold at the same price point? If so, that's crazy.

sold at pretty much the same price point, yeah
but mattel is going bankrupt so they're trying to spend less on manufacturing but make more on sales

I know this is going to sound really shitty, but I honestly mean no offense by it. Is there a large market for adult collectors of Thomas? I had this same reaction when I found out adults were buying Imaginext Power Rangers. Is it a nostalgia thing? Is it a general train thing? Do you have small children?
Again, honestly not trying to start shit. Just trying to get a little insight

A little of all three. Pic related is apparently worth a decent amount of money.

How is collecting Thomas different from collecting anything else? This board is full of people who collect things from literal toy commercial franchises for children that are much more recent and mainstream than Thomas is. What's the actual difference between something like Transformers or TMNT and Thomas? Why would you come to a board about adults collecting toys and be surprised adults are collecting toys? Does Thomas need to become a shitty Hollywood blockbuster and have overpriced 'adult' toys made for it for you to take it seriously?

Believe it or not, the Flying Scotsman only used the second tender for special trips.
