Traveled to a Target store, no luck with the new 2026 Thomas diecasts. Anyone on the east coast of the states have any luck? Are they even here yet? Though I was able to finally find some 20th anniversary Pixar Cars Diecasts. Happy to get both Lightning and Doc! #TTTE #PixarCars

The back of Bruno's 2026 Diecast box reveals Rheneas, and a look at Duck's and Bill's faces. Rheneas is an odd choice imo thought it would be Skarloey lol. Duck's face looks better with larger eyes. Bill's face looks a bit too big. Source: icecat.co.uk/en/p/mattel/... #TTTE

(2/2)... she does appear in a few packs though. For motorized, Rosie appears in the second assortment. Then for those Story Talker things, she doesn't get one. It doesn't add up. Rosie really should get the same amount of toys as Percy, not Thomas since well he's the star, he'll have the most lol.

(1/2) I find it odd in the case if Rosie is going to be a main character in the new show, why doesn't she have the same releases in the toy lines as Thomas and Percy? For example Rosie only gets one regular diecast release, no "redeco" version and appears less frequent in the assortments...

Sooo, the new Duck...uh well his nose is a lot bigger, eyes appear too small, making his brown irises look big. The fact his side tanks and boiler are plastic is just plain weird....I don't get why these "diecast" toys are becoming more and more plastic. #TTTE Source: t.co/svyFHxgjKB

26 years ago today, July 14th 2000, ✨Thomas and the Magic Railroad ✨ was released in UK theaters! Happy 26th anniversary to my favorite movie!! Thank you, Britt. #TTTE #ThomasandtheMagicRailroad

I'm very pleased with Emily's new diecast. It's wonderful to see how finally she didn't get the short end of the stick for the toy ranges, even her motorized looks good. She has all her wheels, (minus tender) and her drive wheels are properly larger and actually seem to move. #TTTE

These are ugly, Edward has the wrong number and the Oliver one in particular is blatantly ai. Not sure what they are doing but I hope this doesn't continue. Here I think are the original screen shots.

Happy 20th anniversary to Pixar Cars and to Lightning McQueen! 🚗⚡ #PixarCars #LightningMcQueen

Edward probably has one of the best new faces. His nose looks wider and more angular but it still looks like him. Maybe add in a few crows feet around his eyes. Hopefully he'll get a standard single release later. #TTTE Source: icecat.us/en/p/fisher-...

Here's the packaging for the 2026 Emily, with our first look at her promo. I still think she looks pretty good, tbh. Emily's face looks very 2003 concept art inspired. #ThomastheTankEngine #ThomasandFriends

81 years ago, The Three Railway Engines was published on May 12th 1945, by The Rev. W. Awdry. Introducing the world to Edward, Henry and Gordon. Feels like the 80th was only a couple of months ago, now here we are at the 81st! Happy 81st Anniversary!! #RWS #RailwaySeries #TTTE

Since so many are talking about Emily, I've always loved her, she cool. 💚

The 2026 diecast Oliver and Toad pack now has a picture of the packaging, Oliver looks so adorable! Toad looks good too. The designers did a great job on them. I like the brown eyes. #TTTE Source: icecat.us/en/p/fisher-...

More 2026 Thomas diecast items/packaging revealed. This is a nice classic pack with Thomas and Annie. TBH I'd like this better if it included Clarabel too or it was just an Annie and Clarabel pack. Hopefully all rolling stock is metal Edward and Oliver look good so far....! #TTTE

Thanks to TrainWorld on the bird app, if ya havent seem them, here are more images of the new diecast 2026 Thomas range at the New York Toy Fair. More characters are confirmed for the range not shown such as Edward, Emily, Duck, Oliver, Toad, Annie and Clarabel. Sources on the wikia. #TTTE

There is always light in this world. If you can't find it, be it. Light always wins. Always.

First look at Emily from the 2026 show! She looks great, her face got the same treatment as Rosie's, eyeliner and larger lips, not really a fan of that. Her paint looks like a darker emerald and she's still number 12! Rosie's motorized looks great too! Looks like her cab side windows are fine.

Here's another edit from the bird app by engine_magic. They fixed Rosie's windows, fully colored her lamp, made her buffer beams the proper lighter red shade to match her wheels! As well as printing her boiler bands, cylinder lining, and running board. These edits are excellent!

Look at this beautiful edit from Atti_On_Sodor on the bird app. It's amazing how a few more details makes Rosie's new diecast look better. Printed boiler bands, cylinder lining, running board and of course buffers.

Rosie's 2026 metal toy listing on that website got updated! She looks good, though she could use more prints like her boiler bands, cylinder lining, the gold on her running boards. Yes all of them really need their buffers printed. At least her lamp is printed and her wheels are bright red!! #TTTE

They are there, just very very very faintly. Probably has to do with the image resolution.

Yes, I'm excited to see that again, it appears, Rosie will be part of the main cast! It's been my dream ever since they repainted her red way back in series 21! Can only hope she'll fully be a feisty, free-spirited tomboy. Also she looks better here than on her packaging. #TTTE

So, what do I think of the 2026 series Rosie face design? She's kinda cute. Honestly, its her eye shape that's throwing me off. In a way Rosie looks like if she was introduced in the late cgi era. If I saw her face render alone, only by her freckles would I have guessed this was Rosie. #TTTE

The cover for the 2026 book, Thomas' Brave Adventure as been revealed! Seems to be based on the new series, there's a redesigned logo, and Thomas, Percy, and Rosie have colored eyeballs. Obviously this is a stylized artwork so it's hard to tell the exact style of the show. #TTTE

Speaking of inconsistencies...already we have Gordon only getting his headcodes for his diecast, not his motorized. Also pointing out...no painted buffers for anyone. Whats the deal with that? xD However these are renders so it's a possibility there will be changes on the final toys. #TTTE

Yes the faces are the weirdest looking parts of these new toys. In particular James WHAT THE HECK! When I first saw it, it looked like Edward, thinner brows, pointed nose. However..is it based on the later RWS drawings? Annie's face is definitely from the series 12 concept art since it's gray. #TTTE

The fact these new toys are so detailed and the bigger engines are have mostly proper wheel arrangements leads me to think this new show may look something pre aeg. Kinda doubt this much detail would be in a 2d animated show. Hopefully their colored eyeballs won't look jarring if it is cgi. #TTTE

Well these new Thomas toys are certainly uh...interesting. I actually like Gordon's darker blue. Looks like CGI bodies mixed with both CGI and AEG faces. Others have said RWS influenced faces. Once we get promos of the 2026 series, we'll get a better idea of all this... (sources on the wikia) #TTTE

41 years ago today, October 9th 1984, Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends premiered for the first time on UK television! 📺 Happy 41st anniversary!! Thank you to Britt Allcroft, David Mitton and everyone else who brought Awdry's stories to life!! #ThomastheTankEngine #TTTE
