I’m not in the business of telling other people how to play with their toys but yeah, stuff like that is a bit hard to watch! It doesn’t help that my son has totally burned me out on the whole Timothy The Ghost Engine thing!
This isn’t just about “rare collectibles” either. There’s a series of videos on YouTube where some kid’s dad “accidentally” runs over his Thomas engines. They’re mostly Trackmaster 2 but I didn’t like the message being conveyed. I had to really lay down the law with my son after he saw a few of those and started trying to think of ways to “accidentally” smash his engines.
Sorry, got off on a rant there!
