No offence, but I'd take great care when watching donaldthescottishtwin's version. He claims to be the first in the UK to get this model, but I think he probably tends to gloat now and then.
I'm only just stating the clear facts; that's all.
Not really, The Bachmann one has the same detail as the T.V series model, Which has got: Body, Tender, Wheels, Smokebox, face' handrails and whistle, the Hornby one on the other hand has: Body, Tender, Wheels, Smokebox, face, handrails, Sand boxes, smoke box supports,whistle, cab details, brake for the tender, steps on the back of the tender and brakes, now I think Hornby's is more detailed :P
Basically, the Bachmann one is a toy for kids who want to run Thomas & Friends stuff. Hornby Edward was Hornby's answer to Edward, and a model like him is more for serious modellers who care about quality and detail. =P
The wheels on Hornby Eddy are perfect, I've got pictures and the real thing sitting beside me in the box, his wheels on mine are the exact same shade to the body :P
I know. Hornby Edward is way better than the bachmann one. No flaws. but all the same, i really like the bachmann one. i like how they built it relative to the real model and the Revs model
I think it the manufactuer of the wheels, I think the machine that makes them is programmed to paint the wheels that one colour...but with a lick of paint, problem solved :)
Can he run on 18 radius curve tracks?

WOW! He looks splendid! The Bachmann Thomas & Friends are better then the Hornby Thomas and freinds.
ThomasTrainWorld 3 years ago
they are based on the tv series which makes them more appealing. But i still think hornby is better (hence my username)
hornbytrainsets 3 years ago
Okay i really don't care. That's your opinion. He is more detailed then Hornby.

One flaw on Bachmann Edward:
The wheels are a differnt shade of blue to the body and tender :P
WEREHUTCH3 3 years ago
I don't see it.
donaldengine9 3 years ago
1:43
Look at the wheels, then at the body, the shade of blue on the wheels is different to the shade on the body work :P
WEREHUTCH3 3 years ago
and take a look at hornby edward (even though i like it) you think shaded wheels are bad
hornbytrainsets 3 years ago
The wheels on Hornby Eddy are perfect, I've got pictures and the real thing sitting beside me in the box, his wheels on mine are the exact same shade to the body :P

hornbytrainsets 3 years ago
just like james: his wheels are grey instead of black. How do they make a mistake with that like that?
hornbytrainsets 3 years ago
I think it the manufactuer of the wheels, I think the machine that makes them is programmed to paint the wheels that one colour...but with a lick of paint, problem solved :)
WEREHUTCH3 3 years ago
true but then how can you have the colour for the body and not the wheels?
hornbytrainsets 3 years ago
I don't know how :Z, but I think it's two different machines that do the body and wheels, If only I could see one being made :P
