I thought I was gonna make my own version of Stanley too but non of the ideas I'm looking for to to try to make him nice were working so I'm just gonna get the Bachmann one instead that's a better idea.
The 12 Ton Van is apparently based of the same design the N and G scale vans, so it will most likely be a new tooling that is more accurate to the show.
So its true, Bachmann is now actually making some Thomas characters that we been asking for a long time: Stanley: (OH YEAH, he’s definitely the one that I hope they’ll make. Hornby made a shed for him, but not a model of himself at all. And now look what Bachmann is doing, I love The Great Discovery its one of my top favorite films of Thomas! I’ll definitely be getting Stanley very soon in the future!) Duncan: (We all been asking for him after Rusty or Peter Sam were made. Despite Sir Handel not being released yet, it’s awesome that we’re finally seeing Duncan get announced. His CGI render may not look good, but will get used to it once he’s made. If my friend is watching this, I’ll be getting Duncan for him and Sir Handel as well!) Bulgy: (Don’t got much to say other than, its been a while since we had a road vehicle character. Bulgy is something I’ve been trying to get, but now Bachmann is making him I be sure to buy him.) Thank you Bachmann, it means a lot to me and the fans!
I didn't know Stanley is being made in Bachmann that's amazing I was so happy that Stanley is being made in Bachmann this year when do u think he will be coming out?
Excited for some of the thomas releases however I can see bachmann doing recolours already. My theory for Stanley is this. He's a potential for future releases to be re-coloured to make Charlie and Billy. And yes I'm aware there's differences between the 3 but I'm also betting that Bachmann will be aware of that and still potentially re-colour them if the demand is there. I would hate to be right. But mostly excited for the n scale releases
I doubt that honesty Charlie and Billy may both be saddle tank engines but there isn’t enough similarities for Bachmann to recolor Stanley to make them.
@DCCSodor true. But the potential is still there for them to consider it. Especially if they decide to make the saddle tank a separate fitting so they can make just a different variant of that area. But as I said I hope that my theoretical prediction doesn't come to pass
Cannot wait to get most of these in the future! And here’s hoping they will manufacture Trevor the Traction Engine next after Bulgy! 😁😁😁
WELCOME STANLEY!!!
I can’t wait to get HO Stanley with Moving Eyes!
Me too

WELCOME STANLEY

I mean if Bachmann is going to make four different colored 12-ton vans, they might as well as bring back the ice cream van, I'm just saying.
Yes we need stanley im ordering it soon.
Well it’s about time bachmann Duncan
Bachmann made beau out of their American 4-4-0. Maybe they can make Connor out of their upcoming streamlined Hudson.
I didn't know Stanley is being made in Bachmann that's amazing I was so happy that Stanley is being made in Bachmann this year when do u think he will be coming out?
I’d imagine he’ll be out late next year!
Bachmann is going to make an HO scale Belle and N scale Rosie next. Don’t care, I’m calling it early
How do you know?
Just a precaution @@rorymoore8982
I am hoping that it's true and that I'm right. An N scale Rosie would be amazing
Maybe in a few years for Rosie, but I honestly doubt we’ll see Belle in HO.
