you always get the good stuff first, I'm trying to make connections with Mattel but it seems impossible because I'm not american. Now that rolling stock looks very downsized compared to the old dinosaur Rehaynus (spelling) from classic Trackmaster. Whats with the steamies which look like diesels, I hope there is not a sinister side to this. The new track system takes alot of playing with to get used to. Be careful running annotations in the ad area of videos, it can cause problems
Thanks for the tip, Well I used to be desperate to get them first to make the video first but it ends up being rushed and not a good video, plus there's no point chasing them early anymore as there are other well known videomakers who seem to be connected with mattel or some retail distributor and get items seemingly before release. I got this fairly early but I waited to make the video. (I should have waited longer as the dvd got leaked on to youtube the very same day)
Ucwepn I think my problem is because I don't do fluffy fairy floss sugar coated reviews I'm seen as a negative youtuber. So it seems the large toy companies steer well clear of me. I say it as I see it and from what I see at the moment Mattel are getting into some very deep water with huge profit losses going on. Their response seems to be to shrink the toys. I believe what should happen is go back to the super sized toys from 10, 20 years ago, toys which have the WOW factor. The companies who have tried to connect have offered what I class as the B and C grade toys, stuff that has no large company backing and no market reach apart from a portal from china via e-bay seller or web sites which appear and dissappear like a flickering light. I would not ever get caught up with these deals which seem to land on me every week. Even when I do a very positive style review I get zero thanks, but that seems to be the way the world is wired now...saying a basic thanks is not part of the deal. Only Dyson, The Reject Shop and Moose Toys have said thanks, for the many other brands and companies I have shown over the years there has been silence. Could not even get a sorry from Lego after they pulled down my review videos after they were mistaken for their CGI TV series. Elton John was correct.
leokimvideo In my opinion you are possibly one of the more positive youtubers that I have seen on here You & Ucwepn both. The only times you are negative rely on quality of the toy & how they play out in your house with your son & daughter. You sir are a person that many should really look up to & there is NOBODY who can persuade me otherwise from saying so.
The Timothy custom in the beginning of the video looks *splendid*! It's a shame that Mattel doesn't give two craps about quality anymore. The Trackmaster Revolution and the redesigned Take' N Play engines are proof.
Samson is based off an 0-4-0 saddle tank engine working for the High Harrington Works on the Furness Railway, his catchphrase is "Samson here at your service" and his he has the number 15
Awesome review :) What I do like about the trackmaster Samson is the fact they have put more detail in than any other new trackmaster engine. This might be the best trackmaster engine they've made in 2014!
You need have no regrets, dear Sir, you are a modeller after all... :) Some trains hardly get used, I recon there are plenty of Tomy trains out there, waiting to be run again. Yours, Cliff.
Thanks :D Now that I've been buying triang I crave originality haha repainted and customized locos are a real letdown. I can now see what its like to be on the other side of the fence
Sad thing to hear you wont be modifying anymore older style Trackmaster or Tomy engines. Lots of interesting videos! Im sure you could easily find some second hand trains and maybe make a few more.. Im still not too sure about the Redesigned models yet. Just can't seem to get past the drive wheels on them. Great video!
Nice one. For someone we don't really know about I think he looks really good, and that is impressive speed. I think I somehow made too many people conviced that he was Logan. What would I know? :P Yeah, I'd love to find some more remaining brown track TrackMaster in stores, just a bit more.
I still use a lot of Tomy track as well because I never got that large amount of Trackmaster track to create a pretty nice layout. I still haven't got any New Trackmaster trains yet.
Nice job! It really sucks there not being made anymore, WHY did fisher price have to do this? Did they even give a reason? Luckily there is a tourist railroad that I go to sometimes with a store willed entirely with Thomas merch, and I don't think they're getting rid of the old track master anytime soon, and believe me, they've got LOTS of it!
Could you tell me which make of track you think is the best and the reasons why? We currently have the brown trackmaster track but there seems a lot more design possibilities like twin sections with the Tomy brand, and it appears to locks together better and more sturdy. Your vids are great and my son loves watching them. Thanks!
Hi I am a firm believer in the blue track as there are many more different pieces and you can flip them over to go either way (with most pieces), things like double track sections, double track points and double track risers and bridges make it allot more fun than any other track systems for actual running of trains, theres even an automatic transfer station which while pricey adds some automation as well as auto points which also add automation. Thanks for watching :)
Well, I didn't exactly filed it down, I just took it apart, and put it back together, but sometimes, it passes through the pieces it gets stuck on, then gets stuck at times :-).
I'm 10 but, I did it my Diesel 10, since I don't have redesigned track yet, still having trouble placing that darn switch and place the thing together to make it work :-D!
Hi, how are you today ? I was wondering if you can help to figure out what I came across the other day. It's hard to describe but it looks to be either a jet turbine or a rocket wagon for Thomas trackmaster and it is made by Tomy. I've never seen anything like it before. It takes 2 AAA batteries and has an off/on switch. When you turn the switch on the back end of flashes in red as it is being pulled around the track.
I think I might take a break from collecting Trackmaster for a while. I've been collecting tomy since I was 3 and I'm 14 now. I already had to buy new track(trackmaster) when I was like 7 back in 08 but to redesign it again is ridiculous. And the redesigns aren't even half decent this time. I'm genuinely sad to see this line go down the toilet as it is and was a huge part of my childhood and I wanted to almost burst in tears when I saw the redesigns; sorry if sounded as if I was overeating there and maybe a little nitpicky but I can't even express in words how hard it is to just let this chunk of my life go. Do you think the old line will ever come back ucwepn(sorry for the long post)
Brandon Alexander Hi, sadly the old range is gone forever and I think this current range will be replaced with something new again in a few years so everyone has to start over
sfoular73 I customized it after filming by cutting away the fake cabless section, a driver figure can now stand there and drive to all the wrong places hauling the wrong rolling stock haha
Ucwepn I seen the Dinos & Discoveries episodes and I'm not a fan of them and Samson is one of the worst CGI Characters ever, I hope Enterprisingengine93 & WoodenRails99 aka my friend will improve on their series on this Character.

Ucwepn I do understand. Here in UK I find more damaged Tri-ang than customised, so I try to weigh up if the item is worth repairing.

***** I only film occasionally, depends what I'm into at the time.

Wow a new engine what model in real life train is this based off? Also good job mate
Well, I didn't exactly filed it down, I just took it apart, and put it back together, but sometimes, it passes through the pieces it gets stuck on, then gets stuck at times :-).
Samson, finally :-)!
I'm 10 but, I did it my Diesel 10, since I don't have redesigned track yet, still having trouble placing that darn switch and place the thing together to make it work :-D!
Do you plan on getting plarail advanced trains?
Good set!

Hi that is the Jet engine from Thomas and the Jet Engine. :D
Thank you 😀
The flatbed that the stegosaurus is on is longer than the other one
I like the brown track .

I think your right unfortunately now I'm not sure if I should start over for the second time or just move on. Thank you for the reply.
I think it is a velociraptor and a diplodocus
Quick question, do you have a video of your Metro and Vline trains? also, are you in a facebook group for Thomas collectors?
hi I do have those videos but they are in my channel somewhere :P yes I'm in Thomas collectables group
Nice I just found you aswell! I cant believe I never noticed your layout pics looked like these videos!
LoonoGames :)
My rating for this engine is 7/10, I heard you cutten off the cab
The can is already off... It wasn't cut off. He has an open cab
I did after the video, also added metal handrails and today some painted details. Photos on the ucwepn facebook page
sfoular73
I customized it after filming by cutting away the fake cabless section, a driver figure can now stand there and drive to all the wrong places hauling the wrong rolling stock haha
Ucwepn I seen the Dinos & Discoveries episodes and I'm not a fan of them and Samson is one of the worst CGI Characters ever, I hope Enterprisingengine93 & WoodenRails99 aka my friend will improve on their series on this Character.
