Interesting version of Thomas and Cranky set!

Hi all, was recently browsing a site called Shpock to see if I could find any good deals on Tomy/TrackMaster items when I stumbled upon this: The Thomas and Cranky Deluxe Action Set but included was a free Diesel 10 and his brown trucks! I've never seen this variant before and I just wanted to share it with you guys.  Smile

I've got that one, I found it in a local charity shop in 2015. It was Woolworths UK, now no longer with us.

Never knew that Woolworth was outside of the US. Were they also in Australia? Is the only difference with this set and the non-Woolworth Exclusive is the included Diesel 10?

Both versions were UK 'Woolies' exclusives, except that there seems to have been a Korean issue of the standard one as well. Woolworths closed their 800+ UK stores at the end of 2008.

Wow, I must say I've never seen this variation before. GREAT FIND!

And yes Super, Woolworths is in Australia, it's currently 1 of the 3 major supermarkets here

I wonder if The Woolworths in the UK and Australia were connected with the ones in the US as I believe the last few remaining ones closed in the 90's
