RE: Chinese knockoff "Talk n Action" - MrKirby48 - 11-18-2024

HUGE Thanks to 等季 on Twitter for contacting me and sending new information!
He told me one of his friends recorded a demo video of the knockoff Talk 'N' Action set, however he is not able to share this because he doesn't have the permission to do it. Sadly the speaker is broken (What do you expect from a low quality toy from China). He told me Talking Thomas unit does the same actions as the original toy, with some "abnormalities".
Also he sent me this image of the back of the box which I can share this to everyone, very neat.
EDIT: I forgot to mention this but you may remember I tried to look at the Migratory Bird store from TaoBao? He told me the store is semi-dead, so it will be useless to find a demo video of the Talk 'N' Action set there because the product is "ancient".

uhh, so this may be a dumb question buttttttttttttttttttt.. is it the Japanese voice or new Chinese voice
also cant he repair the speaker? Speakers cant be bought and added again

Seems to be the british English version of the toy, and yes, seems to be repairable but I think there's damage on the IC (Internal Circuit).
Edit: The box was in english but the instructions stated it speaks Chinese, so we don't know yet.
I saw the video, obviously I can't share it either, at one Thomas stops and starts and is supposed to remark "Oh, dear".

RE: Chinese knockoff "Talk n Action" - Destination Realization - 11-19-2024

so he doesn't speak even in the video?

RE: Chinese knockoff "Talk n Action" - MrKirby48 - 11-19-2024

No, he doesn't sadly.
I will get an update this weekend hopefully
UPDATE: Unfortunately, the owner didn't agreed the idea of sharing the video, I'm very sorry for everyone.

Hi. I also registered an account here a month ago, my friend.

So everybody is wondering about Edward's LiChenFeng Talk 'n' Action Thomas (the one from Twitter) , EqualSeaso told me Edward doesn't know to repair him, which is very understandable because no one knows how it's supposed to work exactly. Aside of the obvious missing speaker, Thomas also shows signs of a rusty motor and broken wires. The future of LiChenFeng Talking Thomas is uncertain.

In other news (not everything it's despair), I have some news for everyone. EqualSeaso told me the Migratory Bird TaoBao store (the store where this image is originated from) MADE a promotional video for Talk 'n' Action Thomas set, in fact, almost every product they put for sell they usually make a promotional video. The sad parr of the story is Migratory Store themselves no longer has the video of the infamous LiChenFeng Talking Thomas, but chances are someone saved in an old hard-drive (I hope it's the case). The video was made before 2014.

The video I talked about before was released publicy, please take note Thomas doesn't make any sounds as he is broken but he reads the tracks.

I think the end of the journey is near, and this year will be a great development, my friend.
