2.0 out of 5 stars Poorly designed ..., January 4, 2012
= Durability:2.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:2.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Thomas And Friends Wooden Railway Diesel Works Set With Percy (Toy)
My 3 y/o is a huge Thomas fan and, between Christmas and his birthday, he received 7 or 8 wooden railway sets. We put together the Diesel Works last night, and I was not impressed. Every Learning Curve set has been sturdy/durable enough to justify the cost, except this one. In fact, I was prompted to write this review by a child crying in the throes of frustration. I agree with the previous review on most if not all points. The Good: Diesel 10's shed with lights and sound is fun, I like the configuration and turntable. The Bad: The "zip line" is 4 interlocking pieces that come apart very easily. It does not help that one of the 2 buildings (smelter house) connected by the zip line is not attached to the track, and therefore, does not stay in place (contributing to the zip line falling apart). The smelter house also has a plastic chute attachment that does not stay in place during play. The Diesel Wall simply rests against the Diesel shed and is prone to falling over. The... Read more

This review is from: Thomas And Friends Wooden Railway Diesel Works Set With Percy (Toy)
My child is a huge fan of Thomas and Friends. He likes the recent movie, Day of the Diesels, quite a bit so I thought I would get him the set for Christmas.

What is good about the set is that it is compatible with wooden track pieces from other manufacturers eg. Ikea. The actual Diesel Shed is pretty fun (it glows, makes noise and talks like Diesel 10). However, here is what is not so good:

- the zip line that connects the Smelters and blue Cargo Loading Station does not stay in place
- the large Welcome-to-the-Diesel Works sign and piece that make up the back of the Diesel Works are not attached to the Diesel Shed (as one is led to believe from the Amazon picture). They are separate pieces that keep tipping over
- my child has two different types of Thomas and Friends wooden trains. The "chunkier" wooden trains are too tall to fit the openings of the Diesel Works back piece or to travel under the blue Cargo Loading Station
-the crane is made from... Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Too expensive for the quality, March 9, 2012
= Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Thomas And Friends Wooden Railway Diesel Works Set With Percy (Toy)
Our son was pleading his case to any Santa he met for months. Finally we gave up and bought the set. But I have to agree 100% with the above reviews.
1) The gray base for the diesel shed is plastic. Also most parts of the other buildings are plastic too.
2) The panel with the orange-brown frame behind is very unstable it gets knocked down every time the child pushes a train under it. So it is totally useless and our son is not even adding it to the set anymore.
3) The grey rod that is used to transport the load is 4 pieces of plastic that fit one into another. After just few weeks it sort of hung down and he load no longer travels downward. We need to find a better solution.
4) Happy Hook comes apart way too easy.
Add to the price shipping to Canada and you will understand why I would not recommend purchasing this toy unless you get it with deep discount from a local store.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!, December 4, 2006
By 
S. Khalily (Long Island, NY) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: LEGO DUPLO Thomas & Friends - Harold the Helicopter (Toy)
My son just turned three and he got this as a birthday present. Harold makes a great addition to the Lego Thomas sets or he would be great on his own. The pieces are the perfect size for preschoolers' hands and they snap together easily. My son enjoys putting Harold together and loading cargo with the pully.

A fan of all things Thomas AND of anything with propellers, my son plays with Harold for hours. This toy encourages imaginative play and works well with other Duplo blocks. It's sturdy and fun. Highly recommended!

My 3 year old son just got this as a gift. He quickly figured out how to take it apart and put it together, and how to make different silly configurations. For two days he has taken it everywhere with him. He absolutely loves this toy!

This review is from: LEGO DUPLO Thomas & Friends - Harold the Helicopter (Toy)
Gave this to son as Christmas gift. He was already a Harold fan, so this was perfect. As always, Legos are a super product. Harold does not have many pieces; they are larger and chunky.
