Customer Reviews
This is a well made, robust toy suitable for a young Thomas fan (age 1-2 I would say). The remote control is very simply a circular handset with two buttons - one to go forward and one to go back. When Thomas moves forwards he plays the tune from the tv series and when he moves back he makes a "chuff chuff" noise. There is no way to direct Thomas left or right when he is travelling forwards, but when he reverses, he goes round in a large circle. Older children can utilise this fact together with some shunting back and forth in order to direct him, though younger ones may have difficulty. It doesn't seem too battery hungry, and Thomas at least peeps to remind you if you have left him switched on.
My three and a half year old grandson told Santa he would like Thomas the Train for Christmas, but with no other specifics we we're grasping in the dark for which of the hundreds of Thomas items he meant. I saw this simple remote controlled Thomas on Amazon, the price was decent, so hoped for good stuff to happen!
Jaden was ecstatic! It took a little while for him to understand the remote and how it worked the train, but now he gets such a big thrill from "dancing" to it's music and watching it go around and around He'll send it behind you if you stand in one place too long to try and surprise you (forgetting that we all can hear the music). Thomas joins us on the sofa while watching a Thomas video. Thomas now has his own special "House" container so that he and his remote are never lost in the toybox. Thomas and the remote seem very sturdy; have been dropped on the tile floor more than once.
The first thing Jaden told his preschool teacher the first day back from the holidays was "Santa Brought me Thomas the Train!" This is definately a 5 star toy
