This review is from: Thomas & Friends: Percy and the Bandstand (DVD)

This is not your traditional Thomas DVD... It's done on the computer, and my son hates it! The trains mouths move very weird and fast... the people are creepy, just all around weird...

This review is from: Thomas & Friends: Percy and the Bandstand (DVD)

This is one of my favorites! Whenever my 2-year old puts it in the DVD player, I have to sit down and watch it.

This was the first Thomas DVD I watched in CGI. It was creepy at first, but after a while I warmed up to it. It didn't seem to bother my son, and held his attention.

It was interesting to see the inside of the Locker Room at Knapford. I had seen it in the minatures in the older shows, and often wondered what the inside of the buildings looked like. Now I know! It would be nice if we saw the inside of more offices.

I was quite surprised to see a live-action human in the show: Engine Driver Arkwright. He brings an energy to the interludes. He is very believable and engaging. My son's favorite part is when he makes his "sandwich with smelly Sodor cheese!" Hope they will use the Arkwright character in more shows. Maybe they could even bring a live-action Lady Hatt, or Sir Topham Hatt himself!


This is a good DVD for a rainy afternoon. Recommended!

This review is from: Thomas & Friends: Percy and the Bandstand (DVD)

Lionsgate is a premier producer of both adult and children's DVD entertainment for the home. This DVD specifically for preschool children is especially recommended as wholesome entertainment. From the popular 'Thomas & Friends' series comes "Percy and the Bandstand" (46 minutes) that invites preschoolers along with Thomas, Toby, Duncan, Percy and all the other engine friends to accompany Sir Topham Hatt for a hot-air balloon ride, a top-secret birthday party, a special bandstand surprise, and more! "Percy and the Bandstand" is enhanced for solid fun and entertainment with the inclusion of such special features as a 'Songs of Sodor' game and three 'Read Alongs'. A superbly produced DVD, highly recommended, that will provide viewing fun and playtime entertainment over and over again.
