Hi Guys and Gals here we have the new Trackmaster Thomas greatest moments with Annie and Clarabel, I bought this from Target near where I live and it was AU$35 (about US$38). Yes we pay allot for toys here in Australia but I often wonder why, thats the reason i buy most of my trains on ebay (I could have bought almost 2 trains on ebay for that price too), and its not because I wanted it right away because I bought it about a week ago and its just been sitting here. so Australian retailers I say .\r
\r
This Thomas is of course the updated new version released by trackmaster and it comes with its new version Annie and Clarabel, The faces on the 3 are from the animated version of the show and s and the face on Thomas should be quite familiar to everyone by now. This new version is 5mm longer than the old version and 2mm taller, I like the proportions on the new version better than the older one and it looks more like the real life version.\r
\r
Mechanically it is completely different from the old version, the drive unit is the flat type and the release screw for the cover is at the front. The drive unit on mine is quiet but it has a clicky sound and ran very jerkily which I found annoying seeing the price I paid for it was allot. This issue shouldnt happen any more especially since I found the 3 BMM engines to be superb quiet and smooth runners.\r
\r
In conclusion I would need another Thomas like this to see if the clicky problem is universal or just mine, but for looks I give it a 9/10 I dont like the red tab at the back. I wont give a score on the running side because this unit might be faulty and it would be biased.\r
