All the Thomas train products are great. We love them all. Great for kids using their own imaginations instead of watching tv.

This review is from: Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Arthur (Toy)

Arthur is a new character featured in the 2004 video release "New Friends for Thomas". He is a big tank engine who shunts trucks and pulls freight. He is as excited to work for Sir Topham hatt as he is proud of his famous spotless record. Only time will tell if that record will stay as spotless as Arthur would like!

Arthur is one of my son's newest trains, and comes in an attractive burgundy color. He has held up well with lots of play, and my son enjoys playing with him.

A very colorful addition to the Thomas collection!

This review is from: Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Arthur (Toy)

This is only a toy, but this is a serious toy. The "educational value" of the toy is more a consideration than one might think. This was for my two-year-old grandson who has just about every Thomas toy imaginable. The importance I see in toys like this is the way the boy uses them to create an imaginary word using the toy set. He also makes friends with the toys. But that could be true with most toys. What I like here, though, is that he actually builds the world, not just in his mind, but physically. This is an important lesson, I think. And it has lasting appeal. His family, my daughter and son in law, he and his smaller sister, are in Germany for at least three years while my son in law serves as an Army doctor. I get an email with the latest track design every few days, so I see what the boy is doing.

But here is something even more important. Because the item was going to Germany, I asked the vendor to handle the order quickly. Well they must have living, breathing people there, because I got the toy in a couple days, with a nice note indicating how delighted they were to help out. That meant more than you can imagine, and this vendor is in my address book for any toy purchases that I don't make locally. This is a rare thing in this new internet world, and is much appreciated. Much appreciated.

The choice of this particular toy was because? It is named "Arthur", and my name is Arthur. He has most of the others, and my daughter was smart in not buying him that one, saving it for me. But he calls me "Poppa".

Hope this helps the reader, and really hope this helps this very special vendor!
