There were much less Thomas ones than the "generic" TOMY/Motor/B/O Tomica ranges. If this should follow the exact same format as the existing list, should we use more than one SKU, date and company for each entry? Most HiT Toys re-releases retained the same designs as the TOMY versions (without changes), so I don't know how to refer to them. I'm going by the earliest years on the Thomas Motorized Wikia, which don't necessarily refer to separate releases.
The Link does have nice info but I don't know which are motorized and except for the boxes, some of the photos look to be stock. Aren't there others that may have come in big sets like Terrence with the front loader?
Motorized & released outside Japan:
Bertie (2 red versions & the green one), Bulgy (2 versions), Caroline, Elizabeth, Jack, Kevin, LOR1, Madge, Ned, Terence (2 versions, HiT & ex Thomas & Terence Deluxe Action Set, with shovel).
I'm sure we can soon get together original photos of all these between us (I don't have any rare ones myself), perhaps we could standardize formats if you tell us what you'd like by putting examples from the motorized vehicle thread here, or links to them?
this should be fun!
