I just realized I haven’t had a pinned tweet in a while whoopsie!
Welcome to my profile where i gush about the trinkets I get from the large list of franchises I love. And occasionally dabble in model railroading and train spotting.
It’s mostly trains actually. Sorry
Someone saying they are starting their own rival Thomas fandom with the ideals of the republican Party was not personally on my 2023 bingo card but here we are
Remember when Stefán Karl Stefánsson passed away and people used memes about him to celebrate his life and his family embraced it.
Can we go back to that era that was such a pleasant time

Literally the entire point of Far From Home was for him to distant himself from Tony and become his own hero, did you not even watch the movie
IT'S FULL STEAM AHEAD AGAIN!
"[My father] is pleased the series has started again," says Christopher, "Sammy the Shunter and Ivor the Engine are rather frowned upon in Awdry household."

This isn’t the “biggest” issue with the current brands marketing but it is ridiculous there are DOWT events with multiple fun and unique characters that kids simply can’t buy toys of right now because the parent company doesn’t make merch of them.
Ok so found out iron engine is also transphobic on top of the body shaming, so cool! Can’t say I’m too surprised and he’s always hated me, but still a little upsetting.
I hate this. They could have easily made this a generic kids train show. That'd be fine. But no
They used Thomas
And since it's Thomas, it sucks. The storyboards are competent, they look fun even! They're just not Thomas. And that's why this is awful
I love how practically every role Arthur has is "Thomas fucks my life up either on accident or entirely on purpse."
The fruit incident, taking the line he wants away from him the first time, crashing a fish train from failing to listen to Arthur, and the runaway car. All Thomas.
Scotsman is mentioned in the AEG Toby episode
Toby has his RWS backstory
Scrap is mentioned (and I think done??) in the new Boxy episode
Now. You know what would be funny
Reasons why Nitrogen was cool
That's it
That's the tweet
I love the rolling stock variety and random ass engines pulling random ass trains
Also viaduct and seaside
The amount of people missing the point of why the new TWR wheels are the way they are is really funny to me. Like I've seen quite a few not understand they're stetched out so the wheels actually run on the rails like a train is supposed to.
ttte has officially hit rock bottom worse then 2018.
declining merch sales, toy stores rapidly down sizing the thomas sections, the show it’s self hitting rock bottom, mattel not caring at all , plarail is falling of and thomas’s popularity is dying
"the faces can't be metaphors because if they didn't exist how would stories like Deputation happen."
Why do you think Awdry only has a model of Donald..
