I've still got a full set of these in their boxes. All played with when I was younger. My grandparents bought them for me. I'm glad they kept hold of them
There are so many Thomas merch lines I don’t know XD I knew ERTL existed, but ERTL MINI? Man, I didn’t see that coming. I’d like to have one of those. Ngl, Thomas, Annie, and Clarabel set has my attention lol
Man I wish they were easier to find, I’d love to have tiny plastic Sodor for these little things- 😭 Thank you so much for watching brotha man I’m glad you enjoyed :)
@@ItsTrainBoy i actually have that 6 in 1 set in pretty good condition (only bertie is pretty banged up) which I got for around £50 like, 2-3 years ago now, that and an old hornby clockwork set are the only vintage things I own, but i’m very happy to own them nonetheless
They existed as playsets only for a short time but then afterwards were keyrings The very Late playsets had 3d faces But yeah prices for these now are strange
I always enjoy watching videos about the Mini Ertl line as they were years before the Thomas Minis came out in 2015. Furthermore, I have a thing for any Thomas merch that come in the beautiful Shining Time Station packaging. I swear that illustration of that packaging belongs in an art gallery. No other toy line ever had packaging like that.
I was so close, I was taking my nephew to a garage sale event in the town next to mine and saw a decent ertl collection, nothing fantastic but in REALLY good condition, and some grandma scooped it up right as I got to it, but hey at least her grandkids will have some quality toys to cherish, and that's still a win in my book
Wew, I'm amazed. I didn't even know things like this existed! Other than Etrl, Take along, playrail and capsule playrail I haven't heard of much merchandise. I think it'd be a great idea to unbox more of this. Definitely worth waiting for a vid as good as this! Trust me, I am not bluffing-
Pretty sure I'm the only one in existence who knows what ertl minis are in this comment section since I watched leokimvideo's video on them from way back when. ALSO YES PLEASE OPEN THEM I'M BEGGING YOU Edit: HOLY WELSH COAL TRAINBOY HEARTED MY COMMENT MY LIFE IS OVER MY BUCKET LIST IS FILLED I CAN DIE A HAPPY MAN NOW. well almost happy I can't find any of these little cuties on eBay for under 40 bucks but y'know I'll take what I can get
I remember buying some of the engine 3-packs new as a little boy. I never had any of the actual mini-sets though, so it was really cool to see one here. Thanks for sharing!
I ADORED these when I was younger!!! Had every one in the collection. And each set had an awesome feature that fans of Thomas & Friends would love: Percy had Tidmouth Sheds with the turntable Trevor had the windmill Diesel had a tunnel with a signal Duck had a watermill. Weirdly, my favourite was the one for Bill and Ben as they came with two viaducts - it was the only way I could actually recreate a “river” in a deep valley in any of the Thomas & Friends merchandise I owned.
Fantastic. I have a few of this range. Personally I wouldn't open the "new in box" ones just for a video. Keep them as they are. There's fewer and fewer each year still in boxes
man I had loads of these, there were quite a few more set available than featured on the back, I had the windmill, the watermill, the helipad and two viaducts that you could use as spacers to extend your layout. I remember they were marked down cheap in Woolworths in Keswick and my dad said I could buy all of them!
My older cousin always tells me about how many garbage bags full of just old thomas toys that i used to play with are just sitting somewhere out there rotting away lol, i probably could have sold them for some money since they're vintage now.
These look so adorable, too bad I can't find any of these in my country (Poland), maybe someday they'll show on any of the second had websites, I would love to atleast get my hands on that sмol тномаs.
As someone who owns all of these it is a much better toy when they are all combined and you can make one big loop. The ramps become kind of useless when you do that tho lol. Love these little guys and enjoyed the video
Oh cool I wondered what line these were from. My brother has Edward and Annie and Clarabel on our shelf but idk where he got it bcs it wasn’t ours during our childhood.
Seems like the paint was redone by Bertie's previous owner. Say, would you ever do a vid on repainting ertls? I've done some work on them and it's really fun. You just have to be very careful with colors and details haha
just sold my old lot, plan on using the money for a Bachmann Edward (uk) might get Edwards "Wife" (Emily) down the line, my friends say they argue like and old married couple hence "Wife"
I love the adult swim like intro vibe that starts in every video. I’ve seen Leokimvideo make a video of it a long time ago, a shame they don’t do these type of things anymore like the package or sets cause I would’ve liked to see more of them
