Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Thomas&Friends woodent trains) 『Another great Thomas Train. My grandson loves this one because he loves any kind of construction toy. Durable and other one for the collection.』
(Another Character in the Land of Thomas the Tank Engine) 『I haven't opened the package yet, it's a present, but Jack looks well made and ready to make his place onto the train table!』
(For this price i expect better) 『Positives first: It is a must for anyone who has "pack" fans...and the mechanism to move the front loader is rather clever.
People were upset by the magnet in place of a regular but if you were to combine this with say a cargo car loading piece or something similar you can let your child use jack instead of the much more expensive cranky the crane.
The bright red color was a firm favorite and much nicer than the ugly color of Rosie or Billy.
Jack is confirmed to likely appear again in "the great discovery" so it will be a character to use over and over again.
Now the downside:
Jack has changed, he is no longer like the first picture now he is like the second.
Then I should let you know that Jack is slightly disproportionate and somewhat flimsy. (the button tends to break...it hasn't happened to us but my 4 year old is rather gentle )
The front loader does not lift put that high, while it works with cargo cars it still disappoints.
When the loader is down, it often covers Jack's face
In ours, the holes drilled in the wood chassis for the wheel were too big causing the wheels to wobble when played with off track.
In general my son and I both rather liked Jack, because we got him with a dvd, it is not worth 11+$ just alone. Look in your local toyshop if you cannot find it online』
(Jackson Loves Jack) 『Great add in toy for Thomas and Friends Wooden Railway. My son was 1½ when we started his collection and they have been a favorite ever since. When they like the trains it cuts down on a lot of other bulky toys so the clutter is minimal.
This piece named Jack is fun! His arm lifts and the front loader has magnetic pieces in it, we found out by accident. The paint is durable and the plastic pieces are minimal and will be great addition to your Thomas collocation. 』
(Scoop is Magnetized) 『My son Jack (2y) loves his Thomas and Percy more than this truck, but he just got the engines so that could be it.
I myself think that Jack the truck is pretty cool. It's very sturdy like the other vehicles by Learning Curve, its shovel does not interfere with clearance through the tunnels (at least the mountainpass tunnel), and for those concerned with the closed shovel, my husband discovered it has an enclosed magnet, so you can 'connect' to the trains and push or even slightly lift them. I have fun pushing trains with it. Did I say I bought this train set for my son!』 『Push on cab to raise scoop. As featured in "New Friends for Thomas" video.』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Car as gift) 『This item came in condition posted and was delivered very quickly. It will be used as gifts for the kinds in my wedding party. I think it will be well liked.』
(Christmas Robbery Was Worth It) 『My son wanted this item so bad that I chose to spend the outrageous price of $12 for it for Christmas. It was worth it after seeing his excitement however, if you can wait keep shopping Wal-Mart they sell them for $2.98.』 『It's fun to collect these 1:55-scale, die-cast action-sized vehicles!』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Cars Fan) 『I bought this track for my daughter for Christmas. She loved it and plays with it often. I thought it was a great purchase except that the track needs to be sanded down every time you play otherwise the cars do not work as well or at all. I think the track is also very cheaply made. Even though my daughter is careful with her toys I see this one getting broke quickly. The batteries have lasted even though she has played with it about two times a week but I haven't changed them since Christmas. Over all I was happy with the purchase.』
(Fun father son toy, brings back memories.) 『I got this for my son for Christmas. It is exactly the memory of my childhood playing with a track set all day during Christmas. It would usually be totally dead by New Years.
Not that I am all that old but when I was a kid (1970's) the cars were the first thing that died. With this track set I am thinking the track may go first. Maybe it is because the track color is tan and in places it looks semi-transparent. This gives the appearance of cheap plastic. Maybe if it was black it would appear this way.
This track set is cool because it uses batteries meaning you can put it anywhere. The cars have a weird configuration where the rear wheels are much narrower than the front (possibly due to the characters in the movie).
We raced this set all day Christmas and now it is Jan 13th and it is still going. For this I give it a 4 Star overall.

(My two year old grandson loves it!) 『This is a nice, durable toy. I like the fact that it is magnetic. It makes it much easier for little hands to connect the train cars.』
(Kids love Thomas, no doubt) 『My 3 yr old son is absolutely enamored with all things Thomas. Mighty Mac is just another train in his collection. While not the most educational toy around, they make him happy and keep him occupied. The trains are very durable and I have no fear that he can choke on small parts. He has about 20 to 25 trains and has memorized each trains. Not just the names, but the facial expressions and how that expresses emotion. How he can tell the difference between some of them is beyond me. Bill, Ben and the other train pairs look identical to me. But he can rattle them off without error no matter how much I mix them up. It's amazing to listen to his little 3yr old voice talking with such intensity and interest. If your child likes trains, I can't recommend Thomas enough.』
(We love Mighty Mac!) 『My son LOVES Thomas and Friends, so we thought we'd add this unique train to his collection.』
(Christmas items for Thomas the Train) 『product was more than expected, have decided to keep intact as a collectors item for young grandson』 『Mighty Mac is two engines in one: He is Mighty at one end and Mac at the other! When Mighty and Mac work together, Mighty Mac is the strongest engine on the Railway. But when they don?t, Mighty and Mac are the silliest engines...pulling this way and that! So for Mighty Mac, two engines are better than one ? as long as they?re both going the same way!

It looks nice, is sturdy and, according to other reviewers, seems to do well over time. Prospective buyers should be aware, however, that the "Product Dimensions" as given on this page are actually the dimensions of the box the playboard is delivered in. The real product dimensions are 48" x 32". Unfortunately, I built a table for the dimensions as given thinking the "product" dimensions were actually the measurements of the "product," i.e., the playboard itself. Nope. Now my sons have a some extra room around the border, which isn't all bad, but I thought you should know.』
(not compatible with imaginarium) 『We bought the imarinarium play table but the center board broke, so since all thomas and imaginarium are suppose to be commpatible we bought this board....well it's to big and toys r us said to bad! I asked how I could find a board to fit our table they told me imagiaruim was by them and there was no way of getting another we just needed to buy a whole new table. THe Paducah, KY store manger told me this was the lease of his concerns and to deal with it. I'm very unhappy! However this is a nice bright board if you have a thomas table.』
(Love this item...) 『This is one of the best investments we have made. It cleans up great. Actually last month my son decided to use a pen to this table top and the Mr Clean bar got it out. My son loves this and plays with it w/ everything. Thomas, Matchbox&Lego's. I would recommend it to anyone. Watch for the deal Toys r us has though... when you buy the table, you get the top free. Thats the BEST deal!』
(A great addition to your Thomas collection.) 『I umm and aahh about spending this sort of money on a train table and playboard for my children but after doing my homework I decided this is the one I would buy.
Other train tables I have seen in stores are often wonky and seem quite unstable - and this is after they've been played on in the stores. So after seeing poorer quality tables for similar prices I decided to save up for the Thomas branded one and this single sided playboard.
Yes, it's expensive, but as with any "brand", it's the name you are paying for. If you want a Thomas collection of trains and accessories you are going to have to pay. I'm just starting our collection and am buying the "Thomas" trains and buildings, but found a compatible generic track for less than half the price. I was lucky enough to get this playboard at almost half price at a after Christmas sale. It's worth waiting for sales and price comparing.
It's beautifully painted and when used with the table frame is extremely strong (although I wouldn't recommend standing on it).
It's up to you to spend to decide if you want to spend this sort of money but I see this as something I won't ever have to replace and it's something my son can keep for his children. Toys like this will last!』
(Great fun!) 『We just received this playboard a couple of days ago. My son loves it! He is almost 2 and really enjoys playing with all of his Thomas trains. This playboard makes playing more interesting. It arrived in fine condition...we didn't have the problem the other reviewer had. My son has a train table (not the Thomas one) and it fits perfectly. The playboard is a great addition to our Thomas the Tank Engine collection.』 『The Adventure Island Playboard is the perfect foundation for your train town. Dream up dozens of stories for your engines on this detailed and colorfully illustrated board. Designed for use with both the Learning Curve Playtable (sold separately) and the Wooden Railway Adventures Table Base (sold separately). Playboard measures 48"L x 32"W.』
