Paxton is real. Here's a link to his page on the Thomas Motorised Wiki.

Bachmann has made Thomas & Friends products since 2002, and moving eyes have always been a prominent feature. Every engine has them except narrow gauge and N scale (which are too small). Rolling stock and non rail characters don't have (and don't need) them. The feature itself is not all that unique or impressive; the eyes merely move side to side while the model is running, and they can't be controlled separately or move in other directions.

And for 2021 Bachmann announced Paxton (and Diesel) even in their large scale (1:22,5):

Yes, it's for garden railways mostly, it's a G-scale (commonly called "Large scale" in America), but you can build it in your room or in your basement, I suppose...

I have seen a lot of Garden Railway videos with G Scale trains and I guess I really couldn't see the size of them until the above picture with the man holding them. Gives em a different perspective.

I knew they were making a G scale Diesel (saw two prototypes for him), but not about Paxton. I see they got the size of his face a bit better than the H0 one, because it's meant to be much thinner than Diesel's (like in the second photo). Thanks for bringing him to my attention.
