Thomas and Friends "Minis"

Hi Gang,

I don't know if you have seen these yet (probably have), but while perusing Saiinsbury's this morning I noticed these "Thomas & Friends Mini's" blind bags, so being a sucker for such things decided to buy a couple.

Having got home and opened them I'm actually quite impressed. While they are certainly mini (about the size of a 50p piece for the English on here) they are also pretty well made being quite heavy for their size and have a good level of detail.

Anyway my two yielded a 'classic' Henry and a 'metallic' James, pictures below. There are quite a few in the range broken down into various groupings such as 'classic', 'racers', etc... I can see myself getting some more though as they are pretty cool

nice one, nigels. if you go to this thread: http://www.blueplastictracks.com/showthread.php?tid=791 you will find two code lists relating to the numbers on the front of the bags. this will help you avoid double ups.

Good to see blind bags have reached the UK

Thanks Sun, I had found one list already, but this will come in handy, I'd already noticed the different suffix so assumed maybe it related to the model inside. It will defiinitely make getting a set cheaper lol!

To be fair they may have been here a while as I only recently got sucked into the blue tracks/thomas/hypercity/advance thing lol!

However it is also likely we only just got them as we seem to get most things later than anyone else as I found out with hot wheels (another of my addictions)
