Thomas the tank engine was a very popular character in my home for many years. I, along with my son, loved that little train! From the DVD’s narrated by Ringo Starr, to the live action Thomas movie narrated by Alec Baldwin, we owned it all. And we owned almost every single wooden train as well, and may different track sets! My son aged out of this a couple of years ago so they found a new home with Yakini of the Prissy Mommy. She had two young boys so I knew they would get a lot of years of enjoying our collection from the amazing world of Thomas & Friends!
And now, “Mattel is bringing a new, premium shopping experience to Thomas & Friends™ fans nationwide in a cross-company collaboration that began rolling out this month. Leveraging various strengths from within the Mattel portfolio, the new experience – anchored by the Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway product line – will further enhance the immersive world of Thomas & Friends via the first ever Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway direct-to-consumer catalogue, ThomasWoodenRailway.com e-commerce website (launching Aug. 2014), and partnerships with 20 independent specialty retail stores, which will serve as Official Thomas & Friends Specialty Stations in the U.S.”
Get your own limited edition “Logan” through the website above, it is only available on-line!
And what can be cooler than parents giving their child something personalized in the Thomas line?
I share this for anyone with little kids, this was an amazing franchise for my son, I will never forget reading the books to him every night!
Disclosure: I received a box of Thomas and Friends gifts. All opinions are 100% honest and my own.
