@@angeltherockstar6461 I feel like it’s really My Busy Book’s fault for making such a bad quality product, especially when the originals had so much detail!
@mattzoy1126i can see where you’re coming from, but that doesn’t mean diesel just all of a sudden has to switch from being devious altogether, he was equally devious toward diesels and steamies anyway
Just when I thought AEG couldn’t get any worse, they go and turn my boy Harold into a god damn toaster oven Man’s got more right angles on him than my 76 Chevy
I just thought I'd share this, but. Earlier, my grandmother wanted to go to TJ-MAX and I was just wandering around. For the first time in years, my 19 year old ass saw a Thomas figure and for a split second, considered buying it. But, hey great video! Always entertaining!
Not gonna lie, Thomas, having a black boiler is kind of interesting. I don’t prefer it over the blue one, but it’s definitely interesting. I wouldn’t mind seeing that in a highly industrial take on Thomas.
My cousin just introduced me to your channel and the real historical events around Thomas&Friends. I think I’ve honestly learned a lot about myself. Love the content, love your energy, and yeah, have your fucking sub.
Thomas and friends was also currently owned from HIT entertainment and Mattel creation after Wilbert awdry's Death from home in March 21, 1997, That busy book was really weird and wheels looks black like Donald and Douglas in season 2, I remembered these two scottish twins since i was young.
Great review! Here's my thoughts on each figure Percy: The more I look at this model the weirder it gets... that face is absolute nightmare fuel it feels like its staring into my soul. Also, I wish the wheels were green rather than black Thomas: EWWWWWWWW why is it so squished? I'm glad we have more details with the lining but titan it's so squished and looks awful. How did they make Thomas' face worse than Percys too?! Why didn't they bother making the boiler and wheels blue? That would've made this better James: I sound like a broken record at this point with the faces but AGH! That's horrifying it's like something out of a nightmare. The lack of detail is so disappointing and oh my goodness what is going on with that chassis?! At least James' wheels are the correct colour and he has coal Nia: The face isn't that bad? It's bad but not as bad as the others I've talked about so far. The lack of details is disappointing though. Pity they didn't make Nias boilers and wheels orange like the show that would've made this model better Diesel: This is one of the better models and even then he isn't accurate to AEG which says a lot. I wish they at least gave him the purple that's across his body in AEG too Sandy: Sandys okay I guess? The lack of details drags this model down though Carly: This model is weird and I dont know why? Maybe it's just Carlys AEG design in general. It would've been nice to position her crane arm tbh Kana: In terms of design Kana looks great! Her face is okay I guess but, what I really don't like about this model is that she's SOOOOOOOOOOOO LONG Bruno: The lack of details on this is really disappointing poor Bruno never seems to get the details he deserves Harold: Harold's face is probably the best of the figures in this Busy Books set. Those lack of details sure are disappointing though
Me before watching this video: “These toys can’t be that cursed…” Me after watching this video: “THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!”
It would certainly be interesting to see you do some AEG-themed electric customs, but yeesh, these probably aren't it. You could _maybe_ get away with Diesel, the low-detail and matte finish at least work for him; or Bruno, if you sort out the paint for his windows by hand. At a push, you could potentially cut off James' smokebox and attach it to a better chassis, but its probably not worth the effort. Super weird that they're a better fit for OO/HO though. Not sure how that scaling might affect any modeling efforts, I imaging they'd look very out of place on N-gauge wheels.
The Busy Books Thomas books are extremely underrated in my opinion. The new All Engines Go versions of the characters admittedly do look horrible, but they didn’t always look like that and I wish they got more love. The original Busy Books engines actually had great detailing for something so cheap and so small, they used the have white running boards, molded siderods, accurate proportions and on some versions window detailing on the front and it’s sad that they got rid of all of that detail on the new ones. I don’t know if anyone will ever see this comment or agree with this unpopular opinion but I think the My Busy Books Thomas range had more detailing than i\a lot of other Thomas merchandise lines and I love just having them on the table or simply pulling them out and looking at them for a bit and I’m sorry your first exposure to this line was… whatever it is now but I can assure it wasn’t always like this! Thank you for reading my comment and I enjoyed the video!
I had a busy book but lost it and the figures i found three of them which was Henry, Gordon, and Clarabel, then i lost henry and Clarabel, but have the Gordon with me still. It was also a Classic Series one which made it even better
Kana was very interesting Highspeed diesel this diesel was based on 0 Series Shinkansen was the same Size is bigger then Kangi From Thomas and friends in Season 24 Special: The Marvelous Machinery of the 75 anniversary of the Railway series and the tv series. 0 Series Shinkansen was also known as a "Bullet Train". These were the first generation of such engines and were designed specifically to run the high-speed Tōkaidō Shinkansen line in Japan. By 2008, all units had been withdrawn from active service, however a large number are preserved, including one at the National Railway Museum in York, which was donated as a gift by the West Japan Railway Company in 2001.
I can’t believe that they made An All Engines Go My Busy Book I have the original Thomas My Busy Book and why do the figures look so big? The figures on the original Thomas, My Busy Book The figures look so small and why does diesel look so terrifying?
These engines are so cursed that I am kind of impressed. I’m impressed at how poorly made these are, and how Mattel Greenlit them when they could’ve just gone with The Prototypes. Edit: Honestly, I don’t think these things deserve to become N scale runners. At best maybe you could buy like a bogey chassis and make them become dummy engines for HO/OO Rails. But even that seems generous.
I had the original from a long time ago but, many of the pieces,the mat, and the book itself are lost. But, WHAT HAS THE QUALITY OF THESE TOYS BECOME? THE ORIGINAL MY BUSY BOOKS ENGINES HAD BETTER PAINT JOBS! Great video tho!
this is random but I wanted to say that the creator of the game Choo Choo Charles said in a recent video that the original name for the game was trainboy but he changed it because "some" TH-camr went by the same name. so that's funny
That's why they call it a busy book. Because you'll be busy repainting them
That’s a good way to think about it 🤣
If you do repaint the engines, I highly recommend you do nia first because she is ugly.
@@angelobates601 yeah I agree.., why Mattel
@@angeltherockstar6461 I feel like it’s really My Busy Book’s fault for making such a bad quality product, especially when the originals had so much detail!
That's What I'm Doing!
The only time we’ve seen AEG diesel look devious
It almost doesn’t feel right- 😅
@@ItsTrainBoy diesel look like he sold someone some illicit substances
Boi AEG diesel lookin like NEHEHEHEHE
@mattzoy1126i can see where you’re coming from, but that doesn’t mean diesel just all of a sudden has to switch from being devious altogether, he was equally devious toward diesels and steamies anyway
i lost it when you started moving them around the mat. Thank you for taking the fall for all of us
Busy books but no busy bee 😭
A great video! some aeg models look like random models on a bachman chassis
Looks like its time to repaint James to make him Busy Bee
Just when I thought AEG couldn’t get any worse, they go and turn my boy Harold into a god damn toaster oven
Man’s got more right angles on him than my 76 Chevy
RIP Harold
Cause Of Death: Redesign by the serial killer known as Mattel
Harold, you will be missed😢
Man’s got more right angles on him than my 76 Chevy
why is this more funnier than anything amy shumer makes
also they ruined ma boy james
I can't help but to say that Diesel has definitely been on something. Maybe that's why he's so goofy-
Good vid, as always!

I'm 17 and I have a whole tub of the damn things in my bedroom, been collecting for years.
“Who buys these, how are these still in production?”
Trainboy. He buys all of them.
*create more happy.*

3:41 “do you smell a smell?”
It smells like pond water!
Not gonna lie, Thomas, having a black boiler is kind of interesting. I don’t prefer it over the blue one, but it’s definitely interesting. I wouldn’t mind seeing that in a highly industrial take on Thomas.
I already had extremely low expectations... and I'm still let down. Definitely a Mattel product
"WAIT YOUR TURN!" cracked me up

trainboy, the castle was kirk ronan for some reason they brought it back, great video though!
I will literally eat diesel,
*He looks like a brownie*
He looks like a cosmic brownie without the sprinkles
I like brownies.
Not THIS.
Bro I’m so glad you played the Mario music because i just came back from seeing the Mario movie and i loved it just for that I’m liking the video ❤👍
Honestly I always liked the smell of the busy books for some reason….
Welcome, fellow Busy Books smeller
Only OGs remember getting busy books for Christmas or birthdays lol
What a good day. I get school off from a snow storm and train boy uploads. W day fr
N scale Bruno would go hard ngl.
10:12 also (in the recording) he looks like a mix a tour & brown
18:00 - That’s the Maintenance Yard
21 minutes of Trainboy?
Me: YES!
Diesel is megamind confirmed
2:39 LMAO

Bruno: The lack of details on this is really disappointing poor Bruno never seems to get the details he deserves
Harold: Harold's face is probably the best of the figures in this Busy Books set. Those lack of details sure are disappointing though
Diesel looks like he took some "SPECIAL" coal like goddammit you know how illegal that stuff is, D? Don't EVER take from my stash.
The "prototypes" at 2:04 are actually the AEG Magical Tracks models.
But Bruno & Harold are not in it
Me before watching this video: “These toys can’t be that cursed…”
Me after watching this video: “THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU! THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!”
I HAVE A FIRETRUCK FULL OF HOLY WATER AND I AM NOT AFRAID TO USE IT!
Thomas looks the all engines go mad bomber version of Thomas.
Diesel looks like he smokin somthin
And Harold looks like I could cook toast in him. And Tom looks like nightmare fuel.
They all look like they're on something 😂
2:02 those are the prototypes
2:47 and those are the toys
remember what they took away from you
AEG busy books are insane,
Perfect
Insanely terrible lol
I have both of the original of the Thomas & Friends busy books before the change of All Engines Go.
the black wheels give me mad bomber vibes.
Another banger from the man ❤
Thank you my dude :)❤️🔥
banger?? 🤨🤨
@ThomasFan14 bro it means great or something cool, holy shit get a grip
@ThomasFan14 oh lol mb mb apologies
Diesel looks like he is on something
Mans took some special diesel fuel.
I actually got the classic Thomas busy book with the figurines.
"I dont plan to eat these, but You never know" trainboy

It’s nothin’ new sadly homie-
I miss the Tomy days more and more 😔

Jesus Christ. Cool video but those things are cursed.
I dare you to cover them in lead paint them get them recalled for the sake of it
"mr president, they got to the busy books"
12:27 We dont talk ab-
hi train boy can you check of those engines can fit on trackmaster tracks
I love how both thomas and nai have black boilers
The old busy book engine were way more detail for the time. Most of them had white running boards
Remember how good the originals were?
You can tell these ones were made just for profit
Thomas doesn't have his triangle eyebrows
I thought James was your favorite character
Percy is my favorite in AEG lol; James is a fav overall but he got kinda slighted in that department
Awesome video trainboy
Glad you enjoyed homie, thank you so much :)🙏
@@ItsTrainBoy you're welcome 😊
My busy books? Nah, my busy questioning my life choices
I'm ordering one too
Yea another day to me to see the cursed merch AEG
"Kids, remember, don't sniff mats. That's not advised on this channel."

What's next, Thomas AEG shoes?
Pretty sure they’re already making them
Don’t give them ideas
*quality has left the chat*
YEAH, BOI! WE GOT DA BUSSY BOOKS
so THIS is why Mattel rebooted the show, to sell merch and books-
Man, someone cancel them already (Also what the diesel doin on the thumbnail??)
But we dont Talk about bruno
No no no no

Fr fr they used to be good but now they are trash
I used to have the busy book with Mavis, Harold, Thomas and the original steam team and Bertie
I have Spencer Rosie nia Rebecca & whiff
So were not gonna talk about James' nose from that top view 💀 + Diesel has a smaller forehead than mine
They once again did my boi dirty.
something about harold screams "we bare bears" to me
Why having Thomas and Percy having black wheels make me like them more in this set
I've had a old one but the only thing I got left of it is a damaged gordon
Sandy looks like a starburst. If it was edible I'd finish it in one bite.
6:10 - Mad Bomber Thomas be like:

They probably could be made in to n scale but appear they would be more of the tomix n scale not the bachmann n scale
Seeing N Scale-ification (if that’s right?) would be cool
I used to steal someone them as a kid 💀
It's like they just quit painting them all halfway through

What did they turn Harold into a square
I like Bruno the Brakecar aka the caboose or brakevan!
The mad bomber theme intensifies
My favourite part of this vid was your cat
Lol
3:45 motel is so bad that they can’t even place the Vickarstown bridge properly or they just forgot to connect a track to the Vickers Bridge
The James looks like a knock off version of the miniature ertl James and the Harold looks like a Harold baby toy
Diesel looks like he just slapped his little brother
Forget the engines and keep the Matt as a Map
You should repaint em all
this is random but I wanted to say that the creator of the game Choo Choo Charles said in a recent video that the original name for the game was trainboy but he changed it because "some" TH-camr went by the same name. so that's funny
You should still convert percy or just straight up try too
I wish I had all of the busy books
Nah what did they do to my busy book 😟
We’ve been cursed mane 😔😔
James looks like he’s using to disney snapchat filter 💀
It's all fun and games until Rico gets led poisoning
Cube harold isn't real and can't hurt you
