Personally, this is what I would do to the current Plarail range:
Replace Belle TS-08 with a new engine being Duck and Douglas, re-designed with an AA drive unit and NO whole in his cab! Douglas would not be motorised, but would have a front coupler. However, his drive unit would be interchangeable to make him motorised, much like Merlin.
Replace Rocky and Percy TS-17 with a new engine being Oliver. He should be given new updated details and his mould should be updated too. He should be included with a CGI grey style Troublesome Truck and CGI style Toad.
Replace TS-19 Flynn with a new engine being Salty. He is very prominent in the show I have no idea why he has not been re-released! Anyway, he should be given an updated mould and details. His trucks should be two grey CGI style troublesome trucks with four fish loads.
New engines which would extend from TS-24:
TS-25: Daisy with milk tanker and CGI style troublesome truck.
TS-26: Donald with grey low level wagon (same mould as the red plant truck that comes with TM HTC Arthur) and 3 silver pipes (like the ones from the plarail wagon with 3 pipes).
TS-27: Bill and Ben with blue truck. Bill would be motorised, but Ben would not be motorised, but would have a front coupler. However, his drive unit would be interchangeable to make him motorised, much like Merlin.
TS-28: Millie with yellow CGI troublesome truck with two blue barrels and red CGI troublesome truck.
TS-29: Diesel with CGI face, with yellow Dieselworks tanker and red and yellow striped brake van (same mould as the 2014 TS-05 James, but colour red).
TS-30: Mike with brown Arlesdale hopper truck.
TS-31: Rex with Arlesdale pink-red open passenger wagon.
TS-32: Bert with Arlesdale pink-red closed passenger wagon.
Summary of my proposed list:
2019:
New engines to replace previous ones:
TS-08: Duck (redesigned T-8 Duck) and Douglas (updated details from MR&R Douglas)
New engines:
TS-25: Daisy
TS-26: Donald (updated details from T-9 Donald)
TS-27: Bill and Ben (updated details for both from MR&R Bill and T-13 Ben)
TS-28: Millie
2020:
New engines to replace previous ones:
TS-17: Oliver (updated details from T-10 Oliver)
TS-19: Salty (updated details from T-17 Salty)
New engines:
TS-29: Diesel (redesigned T-11 Diesel)
TS-30: Mike
TS-31: Rex
TS-32: Bert
