thomas and friends mini series

Do you guys think it's crazy to buy a whole trackset to get just one train? I don't see any other way to get the engine. Maybe I can sell the toy without the train for half the price for someone who doesn't care about the train but wants the toy. I feel like I am spending a lot more than I should on these little trains.

LOL I laugh because I do that... from this collector, I buy the whole set to get the exclusive. For sure. Then I give the rest to my kids or divide them up for little kid presents when we go to Birthday parties. ((and I've stopped keeping track of what I'm spending on these cute little trains))
