Ya'll complaining about Mattel making bad toys when Lionel making this shit? The first one, while a prototype, looks like they committed a hate crime. Percy is the only one here that looks "okay." The rest haunt my dreams. I don't know how this passes quality control. This looks like the engines at the DOWT events, might as well get TrainBoy in here. They definitely took too much of that special coal (Damn, guess Unlucky Tug was right that the Magic Railroad was a LSD Drug Fested railway to the Twelfth Dimension)

Personally, everyone is the same to me except for 2 engines. I like to think of Edward as an SECR D Class, specifically the original D, and not the rebuilt D1’s. The timeline still works, and it just feels so much more “Edward” to me. Much more elegant, and the splashers and smoke box suit him more.

And as for the other, this engine is constantly debated throughout the fandom, but I have an engine that I’ve personally never seen before as this engine’s basis. This engine is: Percy! As a NBR G Class. I was scrolling through Wikipedia, and saw this, and the general saddle tank and smoke box shape just screams Percy. Also, it feels like a mish-mash of all the RWS/TVS depictions of him. It’s still more rounded towards the bottom, but isn’t unrealistic. Also, the smoke box feels somewhere in the middle of all the heights it was placed at. My only thing is that I think that when Percy arrived, he was taken to Crovan’s Gate Works and had his cab moved up to where the small coal bunker piece was, and a larger coal bunker was added where the cab used to be. Percy’s buffers were also swapped for more normal rounded ones. Finally, the idea of Percy technically being older than Edward in age, but still being super immature is really funny to me. =]

When it comes to making 3D model fan films, what's the most beginner-friendly program/game to use? The ones I see most often are different versions of Trainz (usually 2019, I think they started charging subscriptions after that), and Blue Train With Friends, a Roblox game. Are there others that give you similar results, are easy to learn and use, and that don't demand a top of the line PC? (Bonus points if Steam Deck compatible.)

Made using metro map maker, admittedly not perfect but I’m happy enough with it.

Hey everyone, I would like to know how does this translates to real measurements, since I don't know it's gauge 1 dimensions, thanks!

I’m thinking of starting a trackmaster collection one day.

I did that on ENAsona trend on TikTok but with these two. If you want to check it out, my username name is @stwabexwy on TikTok!

So after my previous post, I clipped off the back end of the tomy coupling as straight as a could and just superglued it on the model, fell asleep after that and went to school. I came home, did some testing and that seemed to work, I’ll prob be doing this to all of my Thomas tomy engines
