I wondered when I first saw this why Thomas appeared to be wearing a fireman's helmet, it turns out its instead a centurions helmet, the train "type" or "characterization" corresponds to a particular story, as revealed on the packaging but there probably is supporting media, in the TV show or the books, which supports this edition of Thomas the tank engine too.I was aware that Thomas was being relaunched lately, with an international dimension, allowing for the introduction of new environs and vehicular characters (I was supplied with the Chinese train friend for review for instance) but this seems to be yet another tangent in the story telling.Thomas visits Italy/Rome and has a dream that he is an ancient Rome.In the original series I think I remember Thomas and friends dreaming about leaving the train yard or other scenarios, getting caught out in the rain and rusting up or being bricked upon in a tunnel as permanent cold storage (pretty nightmarish but I'm pretty sure I recall those correctly either from books, annuals or the TV show itself). This seems like a really nice, exciting story line, fans of which may really want this edition of Thomas in particular to play with, it is also a story line which could interest a younger child in history too, making play an opportunity for some learning.It is a train which is designed/intended for the accompanying track masters track, runs great on this (supplied separately), I could see people buying and owning this as a set piece, either for display or as a play thing, it does move on a flat surface like a table top and could operate in other play environments but its going to wear it out sooner I would say. Its a nice piece for fans of the show or children new to the show alike. Recommended.

This is a nice little train and compares extremely well with my first train, purchased by my parents for me to enjoy at Christmas 1960!Imagination is the secret of play and this toy is no exception. my three year old great nephew is enjoying this as part of his first adventure into the wonderful world of trains. It is a component part of the trackmaster system, which is a flexible system allowing play for children, rather than simulation for enthusiasts. It is quite durable, but by its very nature, it is unlikely to stand up to very rough treatment. To be absolutely honest, whilst this train is suggested for year three upwards, might I suggest that under fives,might benefit from a little supervision.My nephew lives in a relatively small house, but thankfully, the track master system is quite flexible when setting up the layout, is very easy to assemble and disassemble and spare parts are readily available at a reasonable price. We purchased a builder bucket set of track to accompany this train, which at an additional £32.95 is an expensive add on, however, you store the track in the bucket provided and it will enhance additional expansion sets we purchase over time.I am so pleased that we have this train, particularly as like my father with me, I expect to depart this world with my nephew to enjoy the imaginary world of trains! His birthdays and Christmas's for at least the next year or two are likely to be a joyous occasion for both of us.

If you have not watched Thomas the Tank Engine in recent years you may mistakenly believe that he still spends all his days on the Island of Sodor, but he has branch lined out since this. Not only does he travel the globe, but he has been known to stretch time and space itself. The 'Trackmaster Armoured Thomas' is like having Thomas in Ancient Rome, but it could just be a museum visit or quality fancy dress shop.Thomas has a removable gold helmet as well as trucks containing a very expensive looking statue and more gold coins. The surprised look on the Engine's face is probably due to how heavy the load would be. All the gold is not precious metal, but plastic.The entire toy is which means that it does not quite have the robust nature of the die-cast models you can get. It makes up for this by being self-propelling. You need to get your own batteries, but once you do Thomas will chug along quite nicely on any decent flat surface and does not require a track.The fact that this outing from Thomas is plastic means that it is more suitable for the very young fan as the metal trains can be too heavy. It does not have the vintage appeal of the die-cast models, but it is a fun toy nonetheless, especially for a toddler or baby.

My three year old is a big fan of Thomas the Tank Engine and he is very smitten with his new “Armoured Thomas Motorised Train Engine”. The train set is well made and it is easy to change the batteries, with a few turns of a screw under the engine; a good pair of AAA batteries will last many hours of continuous play and allows the engine to reach pretty fast speeds...the only trouble is catching them once they’ve set off!! :)The carriages are a little tricky to attach to one another, especially for little hands, but they are designed so they don’t become easily uncoupled. The detachable features, such as Thomas’ helmet,lion and gold coins add interest; fuelling imagination play and providing hours of fun.Plus the bonus of the TrackMaster range of trains is that they work on both TrackMaster and wooden tracks, so there is no need to invest in a whole new train set.

All Aboard....My son loves Thomas and his friends. He loves this Thomas just as much. We have several trackmaster sets and this is a great addition. You get a Thomas complete with a removable gold helmet, a flatbed complete with gold lion which also is removable and a truck filled with gold. My child loves the carriages just as much as the train. These carriages are compatible with other engines and trucks in the trackmaster range. We like running train along with our other engines. This product does take AAA batteries and they are not supplied. This is a well made product and Thomas looks really good as a Roman.This is for sale for £13.99 (August 19).This is a great price and any child who likes train especially Thomas will love this. They train will run without track but you'd have more fun if you did.Great birthday or Christmas gift.

Assuming you already have some TrackMaster track, this is a great engine addition for any Thomas Fan!I works on the Thomas & Friends Track-master setups and is decorated with a lot of gold pieces that really capture my kids interstate’s and attention, a nice variation on the favourite Thomas engine.As with all of these, price is around £15-£20 per engine, but I don’t think. Its unreasonable as the track is pretty well prices and for around £100 you can have a few working trains and a decent amount of track. It keeps my nephew really engaged and is definitely one of his favourite toys overall.A much loved family character with interesting additional carriages.

Amazon sent this in a huge box with lots of packing paper.This toy comprises of 3 little colourful carriages, the first one being Thomas with his removable gold helmet, the second being a golden lion statue and the third is more gold. They are fairly small in size but a good size for little hands.The train takes AAA batteries and once switched on my little boy was chasing it around the room.This is a great little toy, especially for Thomas the tank engine fans. I can see my little boy using this for a long time. I’d give it 4 stars as I think if the train made some sort of sound effect it would be even more entertaining for the little ones.

Track master armoured Thomas is a motorized toy train made by Fisher price who's a brand I can remember as a kid and they are still going strong!Its powered by batteries and flies round the track quite fast, it's a kind of add on train for players but it does work without the tracks.Any way my grandsons been playing with this now force few weeks and seems to really like it, he says it's faster than his older similar model.It doesn't feel that strong and I think it would break if you stepped on it by accident, a little too over priced I think also.Would make the perfect gift tho for any little boy!

This is another good quality, battery-powered train from the Thomas and Friends series. I soon had the 2 required triple-A batteries installed with the help of a screwdriver and discovered that the train can move along at a fair pace, across tiled floors and even carpet. After using the train over several days the batteries were still going strong.This unit consists of the main Thomas engine, and 2 colourful, fun carriages, with plenty of details to keep children interested.Overall this is a good quality product, with excellent character detail, plenty of colour and a real turn of speed.

It is beautiful addition to Thomas & Friends Track Master collection,and my kids love it so much.They are happy to play with Armored Thomas because,it is bright colours,comfortable for kids hands size,easy to find free place in a bag if they want to take this train with us.Also,the Armored Thomas looks great with removable helmet,like real Roman.Moreover,very easy to connect or expand it,but most important for my kids that this train battery operated and move,so they think it is great fun.When kids happy I happy too,so can recommend the Armored Thomas to all.

I recently had the Trackmaster train set and this is perfect to go with that. You can buy both manual and motorised trains, and this one is fully motorised.It is made of plastic but is very well made, it has 3 carriages, and you can also attach it to other trains to make one long line. I have the thomas train that came with the set, plus 4 manual trains and then this one, all clipped together.The carriage tops come off so you can hide things in there like sweets and things. It only needs 1 battery to work which is fantastic.Nothing bad to say.

With this Thomas and friends track master Armoured Thomas you get Thomas complete with a gold removable helmet and two other colourful and fun carriages. This product does require AAA batteries that are not supplied but easy to fit with a small screwdriver. The train is of good quality and very sturdy, any Thomas fan will love this addition and its very reasonable priced. The train will run on carpet and other flooring as well as the track and the carriages are compatible with other track master engines and trucks.

This armoured Thomas the Tank engine with removable helmet is compatible with the Thomas the Tank engine Trackmaster tracks . It's made with plastic and metal and Thomas is about 5 inches in length . It takes AAA batteries and you flick the switch to see him power across the track ( or the carpet if you don't have the track .) Can also be used as a pushalong , which is good . Reasonably priced and will go with the Thomas Tank collection we already have .

Our kiddies are going to love this gladiator style Thomas. The helmet comes off which is a good feature as his other trains can take it in turns wearing it ☺️ the lion and top of treasure chest also is removable. As his other newish trains this also only needs one battery. It's well made as expected and all parts are strong. Really pleased to have this to add to his Thomas train collection. It's currently on offer at a good price aswell. ?

Thomas is looking rather handsome in his golden shiny helmet in this toy.But no batteries. Why not? Kids want to play with new toys as soon as they get them, not wait whilst there is much searching for stray batteries.Sigh.That being said Thomas is bright and cheerful and is fun to play with.A sure fire hit for any Thomas fan.Just make sure you have batteries.
