RE: thomas and friends mini series - Reivax - 08-05-2023 sunhuntin dateline='[url=tel:1691217270' Wrote: 1691217270[/url]'] Once again, I appreciate the heads up as I never seem to know if they’re officially done with the minis or not. What’s the significance of series 24, sun? Is there some from that you don’t have yet? RE: thomas and friends mini series - sunhuntin - 08-08-2023 hey, reivax, i was surprised to see it, too. the guy on twitter i follow hasnt posted an update since october last year, so i thought they were done and dusted. series 24 has never made it to nz, so i only have a couple from last years advent calendar. i refuse to pay nearly $300NZD to import a single box from the uk. well, color me impressed! i checked the tracking, and it was marked as delivered. sure enough, it was on the front step. 4 days from america to new zealand. that is mindblowing. reivax, if you buy one, can you please post a photo of the chrome percy face? my one looks really odd. RE: thomas and friends mini series - Reivax - 08-18-2023 I’ll be buying one soon. I’ll post a pic of the Percy. I’ll take note of series 24 when I wander around stores. I still see the most random series floating around each store I go in to. I’m certain there are series 24 boxes around here. RE: thomas and friends mini series - sunhuntin - 08-18-2023 thanks, that would be good. if you find a full set of 24, that would be amazing. two new boxes of minis at the supermarket, the ones with the clear windows in front, and the price has increased .50c. i picked up edward just to have an example of one, and will snag a box when they empty enough RE: thomas and friends mini series - Reivax - 08-19-2023 Yeah, I got a couple clear package ones for the collection as well. Here’s the face of the new advent Percy I got. RE: thomas and friends mini series - sunhuntin - 08-19-2023 thanks for that. yours is marginally better than mine. neither are close to the face shown on the box. RE: thomas and friends mini series - sunhuntin - 10-29-2023 ok, i caved and ordered a box of s24 from an ebay seller in the UK. the box arrived pretty quickly, and i set to going through it. it appears the pandemic did a number on distribution more than we realised. there were 48 bags in the box, as there should be. normally, that would 2 per bag of almost all characters, and then a single or two due to the exclusive. i laid the bags out in numerical order and pulled up the wiki page. not a single code i had matched the wiki site even remotely. one number i had 5 or 6 bags of! that turned out to be classic thomas. i did not complete one single set out of the box. my set is missing 3, and a second set is missing 5. not sure how many more partial sets i can make, too tired to try right now. i did have a mini panic with the codes as the one listed for the metallic james was not in my case. i eventually found it, and then struck gold with a second! i opened the second as i thought my eyes were playing tricks. i was looking through the white parts of the bag to see who was in so i didnt go opening all of them. so now i am searching ebay for the missing 3, and will resort to asking the multi-pack sellers if they have the codes i think i need. RE: thomas and friends mini series - Super - 10-29-2023 You can take the Mini's from the Store shelves... But you can't take the Mini's out of the hands of an Old Collector. 😁 RE: thomas and friends mini series - sunhuntin - 04-17-2024 is anyone still collecting? can anyone give me a rundown of which classics have been re-released with rivet details, please? according to the wiki, there will be 6 new minis in the second half of this year, in the see-through bags. 3 previous classic releases have rivet details, so make it 9 new ones if you go that route. there is also another advent calendar due this year. https://thomasminis.fandom.com/wiki/2024_Series https://thomasminis.fandom.com/wiki/Advent_Calendar_(2024) i went through my whole collection today, putting the sets into alphabetical order and putting them back in the wheels. somewhere along the line, i have lost aquarium gator. i am rather baffled, but he could be anywhere across maybe 4 different house moves. easier to just find another one. lol. i also ordered two of the missing ones from series 24 from a website in the uk, so that just leaves 2 to go. i cut down a tray from an advent calendar to make holders for the metallic trains to prevent scratching. its been an interesting few months. i quit my job at the end of last year and moved back to my home town. i have not been able to make any headway here, and my old boss rang the other week and asked me to go back, so i am going back north on sunday and will make a life up there. over christmas, i helped a good friend re-deck his heritage river boat, and i also spent 2 weeks traveling the south island in my car, sleeping on a mattress in the back most nights. yeh, the motorbike has been sold and i have a car now. my nerves were getting worse every time i went riding, which is a shame. i no longer enjoyed something i had loved for near on 20 years. i got up in the attic and have finished removing all of the tracks and other bits that were there. when i went south, i took a car load of trains to AOF, who has been selling them for me. so all i have left in the attic now is stuff i need, like blankets, different season clothing, and a few childhood toys. my lion king collection has exploded and is now in the wardrobe. im loving it, so many memories tied to a lot of the items. RE: thomas and friends mini series - Super - 04-17-2024 Hi Sun I have thought about you often wondering how you are doing. Thanks for the update on how things are going with you. |
