Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Percy The Small Engine

My son loves anything Thomas and this does not disappoint. Great addition to our collection.

All the Thomas train products are fun, durable, and require nothing more than your imagination to play with them. Perfect for our child! Highly recommended.

We have a combination of Imaginarium(Toys R Us), Melissa & Doug, and Thomas brand track and engines. The Thomas stuff isn't as durable as some of the other brands but it is VERY detailed. And the kids love the familiar characters. As long as they are reasonably gentle...as gentle as kids get...this is a very nice addition to your kids collection!

I purchased Percy for my son - a huge Thomas (or any train) fan. Within 20 minutes of opening the package, the paint was peeled off in 4 different places. I don't know if it was missing in 3 spots already, but at least 1 was done after he got it. I wrote to the company, but haven't heard back from the yet. I hope this is a fluke, as I would love to get the collection for my son, but will not spend that kind of money on trains that won't hold up.

Anyone who has seen these trains on display at the bookstore or toy store probably has realized their durability. They hold up, kids (all ages!) love them, and even parents too! Another feature I like--the names written on the bottom (my kids just couldn't believe I hadn't memorized the trains' names like they had! Now I can just lift the train up!). They are cute, the kids can act out storylines from the books or movies, and they are going to last for a long time--most likely passed down to next generation.
