Plarail TOMY Thomas NEW RELEASES

Well then... I never realized Mattel was this far ahead of the game. I guess my current funding is going into locos.

Mattel aren't' far ahead . They bought the ballpark so it's their game .

*No new licensing arrangement has been announced/Mattel announced Trackmaster is going global.

Where? Seriously, was it here? http://www.toynews-online.biz/news/read/...ear/043613

Unless I missed something I didn't see any news of a new licensing agreement for Tomy to make Thomas brand toys after there current contract expires in the article you linked to or am I just daft and overlooked it?

I don't see anything anywhere in a Google search for what has been talked about. The closest I ever got was mentions of Mattel having a global marketing campaign for the 70th, which has mostly been events, exclusive YouTube content, and how new episodes, DVDs, and specials have been distributed.

I see what you mean now. There probably wont be any kind of official announcement from Mattel stating anything about letting the license with Tomy expire. Some kind of official statement from either of the parties would be appreciated though.

A Thomas that responds to your voice! According to the translation, it was the Plarail winner in a Toy Idea Contest. Wonder if you guys will have to learn Japanese if you want it.



See? I'm certain Tomy are going to be fine with the Thomas license.

That sounds pretty neat. Wonder how many commands he has.
