thomas and friends mini series

It is curious that 2 of the new 7 pack promo pics that I saw have the same snake van in the picture. Would be surprising if they had the same new train in each pack. So, the assumption is that the shark car is the actual train in the third pack?

My guess was that troublesome, duck, bertie, annie and Clarabel were just new classic series trains and not any sort of theme. Yeah, and their faces are just painted on.

Regarding the weights; To play devil's advocate, at least they're taking advantage of the hollow bodies on some of the trains. With the clear Thomas, Henry and snake train (and maybe the shark one). They do look pretty cool. Still, I'd take weights over no weights any day.

I tried taking a weight from an old train and adding it to a few new ones. While they fit perfectly in the body of the train, you can't put it back together due to it all being too snug now. They must have changed the design on the bottom pieces of the train to snap in a little tighter.

Looks like I didn't refresh my post before you posted, Pablo. Good info. Is the Shark cargo partially clear like the snake one?
