I really hope Theodore stays at his iconic home. The Big Harbor just wouldn't be the same without Theodore Tugboat. I've always wanted to get to Nova Scotia and work with Theodore. Hopefully lots, and lots of donations will help him❤ I love Theodore 😢😭

@NiFTyGranny 4 года назад

Thats sad... I wish I could buy him and put him somewhere for all to enjoy.

@seankorol 3 года назад

I had fun going on a ride or two on Theodore when I was a kid, I hope who buys him will keep him around.

I enjoyed watch Theodore Tugboat on television when I was a child. The boat featured in this story is a replica but it should have some kind of Heritage status.

This give me an idea of having Hank, Emily, Foduck & George in life size replicas to become part of this.

@amandanies3174 2 месяца назад

Now that Theodore is in another harbor, maybe that should be a reality. Make a fire tug look like Foduck and build another few tugs to look like Hank, George, and Emily. It wouldn't be the same, though, without Theodore.

@PabloGonzalez-hv3td 3 года назад

I did a few years in the navy and my first time stumbling drunk through the streets of Halifax I spotted said Theodore tugboat. I was thoroughly convinced I had lost it until learning the next morning that a fullsize Theodore did in fact exist.

@williampulfer-melville8536 4 года назад

It'll have to be done right though and I think this is likely to happen if the show started airing in the UK they would probably have it redubbed for British audiences similar to what they did with the US dub of Thomas and Friends

He has been sold. I know that the good folks of Nova Scotia were hoping for a local buyer. Sadly, that's not the case, however I can say that he is going to a very good home, and will be well looked after. I think he will be visiting Halifax in the future too.
