the australian branch of thomas and friends posted about pegasus rosie on facebook, asking if everyone was collecting the new range. myself and another guy both posted about the poor distribution in nz and that we had all but given up on the range entirely.

hopefully this sees some action taken by mattel to force retailers to get new stock in. one store in my town restocked a couple of weeks ago... with a box from 2016.

Good for you. Shows how clueless they are asking how people are enjoying a product that doesn’t seem to be available for most collectors.

I mean, are 2018 bags really anywhere? Common for absolutely anyone? I was hoping 2017 would be an anomaly and we could get passed this and they would start actually distributing the actual current bags properly.

Still mostly 2016 stuff mixed in with 2017 wave 1 is all I see. And it’s the 5th month of 2018 right now.

At this point I have every single train except for the 17 new 2018 wave 1 and 2 trains. It’s good to be caught up to that point but it would also be nice to be excited for blind bags again. It feel like it’s been a year and a half since blind bags were relevant

well, shock of shocks today! went into a local store, and found 2 boxes of 2018/1 on the shelf!! because i didnt have a list of the new numbers on me, i bought one of each number and then weeded out the doubles using the ixbyix checklist.
the 6 doubles will go to a friends daughter who turns three this year.

all the details look good, except an area of missed paint under shanes nose. compared the rest, he is a very dull model, and sticks out in the worst way because of it.
