Rarest TrackMaster Trains

Yes GGF from what I’ve found it seems that it was England.
Smyth’s chain had them, and the small independent retailer Tootally Thomas also received a single shipment of them too.
Apparently Tootally Thomas was informed that what he got was all that he’d be getting, and limited purchases to one per buyer.
They both have them listed now as sold out.

In my opinion, Christmas Thomas was the afterthought of the AEG products, potentially they were being produced simultaneously and just didn't really care about Christmas Thomas and sent him of to here in limited quantities or something. Give it a few years time and he'll be alfie level rare. Mark my words 😬

Smyths have stores in Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, as well as in England. :-)

The Republic of Ireland too.

Sorry for bringing back up an old thread, but i think there might be another item or two to place on the "rare" list. Those items being the "James Search And Rescue" and the "Gordon To The Rescue" packs. I'm old enough to remember seeing late fisherprice original trackmaster items in stores, and never once saw either of these, nor have I ever came across either of these packs on any online website such as Ebay, Jauce, or Buyee. Does anyone here have any information on these packs or happen to have these packs?

Wow this 2 pack look really great condition.

[Super]

Nice...I would imagine that there are several members here at BPT's that have one or both of these cool trains. Hopefully one of them can chime in with some information.

Well, you said "stores", the Land, Sea and Air Rescue line was only available at Toys "R" Us



Maybe you went to stores that weren't Toys "R" Us resulting in you not seeing any?

Yes we have them..
They were TrUs exclusives.
They also come with some sort of pamphlet too.
Here is also a picture of their undersides.

Thanks for the help Splodge & Muddy 👍

i dont think that flip-face percy was recalled
doing a check on the cpsc website doesnt bring up anything and neither does the heath canada recall website say anything... so i think that was just a rumour
