Improving Bachmann Ryan | Brenden's Model Box HO/OO 

HAI. The reason why I didn't mod the steam pipes is because during the filming of this video (June), the Bachmann parts store hadn't put Ryan's parts up yet. I will be doing this eventually. 👀 Okie bye bye, ENJOY. 💙

Ryan is such a fun model to customize, it’s amazing how such little details can go such a long way! Really love the work you put into him, man! 💜

Another BANGER Bren10 upload! All those little details sure do go a long way-a definite improvement! Really fab editing and documentation too.

The Bachmann Ryan looks pretty amazing, and it's nice for giving him some hook and loop coupleings, nice looking buffers and every other detail of him, he looks wonderful.

One of Bachmann’s best models- made even better! Great work!

Amazing, a Bachmann model with accurate detail - The real Optimum Guy

8:49 the guy waving in the background is so wholseome

LOOK GARY I HELPED‼️ But honestly, it was fun helping with his small mods! Just seeing him run during the club’s open house was nice! Great job man!

I always enjoy watching these modelling videos. It’s fun learning how to improve your Thomas models.

He looks soooo much better now! So accurate too!

Great video! Those simple mods really improved Ryan so much!

Beautiful!

Outstanding modifications 😃👍

Yeah Ryan! I loved just being in the house running trains while you were unboxing him, it was verh funny. The mods look great!

Break my stride was so nice at the end - I’ve been overthinking and worrying about everything recently - and it made me smile - also Toby calm down 😭! Love the Halloween profile!!

WOW, anoher INCREDIBLE model 😲

Another sick video bro! You elevated the model so damn much oml, I love the amount of detail the base model has but holy shit you made it look so much better. Looks like I'm definitely buying a Bachmann Ryan now!

Hey man.👋 It's me Wilhelm. Remember, I commented on one of your videos.

Amazing!

Great to see a slighty different stlye of the model box, can't wait for the next video!

Lovely mods! Absolutely stunning in-person!

0:01 Oooh! New Animated Intro!

This reminds me on the older videos of the Thomas the friends channel where they did that collab with DieselD199 on that Christmas special and they used an HO Ryan model.

Nice video! I really like your style! Ryan look amazing

Yay new model box

OH MY GOSH YOUR ALIVE! Haven’t seen you in a while man! Have a good day :)

Alr, this model is just amazing

Amazing

Ey the grape boi.💜🍇 Very fun little vid on the best N2, Brenden!

amazing mods on ryan

Nice Review Of Bachmann Ryan

Nice (what sounded like) Lady Madonna reference at the beginning, and great video overall!

The counterweights made the model look 10 times better.

Ay yo that’s a train with a face nah but for real great work Brenden glad to see you back!!!

I really want to get a Bachmann Ryan now! Awesome video, Brenden. Also, nice One Piece figures in the back!!

7:27 I don’t know why but that sound makes me laugh

Hey BredenReis10 awesome work on Ryan keep up awesome work

Nice model

lovely work dude! perhaps a smidgeon of weathering in future? it'd pick out his nameplate really nicely =)

I think the big change we could do is design Ryan’s face to make it look like it’s from the TV series.

Cool

nice

it goes without saying this model was well made and then made better from your modifications. well done to you brenden, and i chuckled when you called sir nigel gresley the goat. 😅

Awesome video! I love it, also can you do this video but with Paxton? (You don’t have to)

my neighbor and i 3D printed buffers and hooks for some of my bachmann trains last december or somethin

You know something N2’s really do look a lot better in green

YAY :D just got to say are you going to do toby or Edward next also answer plz

hey which loksound dcc decoder did you use for ryan and is the decoder good

Bachmann Ryan as a whole is probably one of the best models that Bachmann has done. But the mods you've given him, make him look even better. For lamp irons I use track pins cut down to size just be careful when doing that. Side note: What happened to your custom Ryan? Has that been repurposed for Redrum? Just curious.

To be honest, Bachmann did Ryan a bit dirty with the closed cab and wheels in my opinion. I think the improvements you made to the model do it a bit of justice!

The reason for that style of blister packaging (with the knit edges) is to show off the product while making it harder to shoplift the contents; a lot of electronics like thumb drives and headphones are or were packaged in the same way. The N scale and narrow gauge stuff doesn't get that treatment because while vulnerable it's really only stocked in hobby and model shops, and the G range doesn't get that treatment because it's too big (that and both ranges came along later). But the OO range also got stocked in big box retailers like Mall Wart (dunno if it does nowadays, with how overpriced it is) and so was put in that kind of packaging to make it harder for people to steal the stuff off the cards (And it's on cards for the purpose of being hung on pegs). They should at least start putting a film or something between the dimples and the engines. A lot of the detailing improvements stem from using the CGI models as CAD files, together with improvements in computerized mold-cutting. It _is_ disappointing that his cab is only semi-open. The blocking could have at least come down lower, based on the disassembled view. At least it's not like Thomas, Percy, Duck, and Oliver where the damn chip is attached to the cab roof so the cab gets a solid black wall. The handrails being plastic probably does have something to do with toy safety standards on one side of the pond or another - that and cost-saving. Aren't Oliver's and Ryan's wheels larger in diameter than Thomas'? That stinger was unnecessarily loud, ow.

Apart from the wrong roading it’s pretty good

Where did you get those romford screwlinks? And where can I buy them?

0:36 IS THAT JAMES WITH SMOKE?!?

Is it impossible to make a gauge 1 Thomas model mad out of cardboard and paper and what’s your opinion on it and like the video how to modify ho oo scale models for Bachman.

Ive Seen the post where Ryan lost his buffers.

Really? We’re getting a model box already? Anyways nice Ryan, absolutely love the face, reminds me of if Ryan was in the classic series.

Hey brenden, where did you get your lbsc H1 Atlantic

What do you think of bachmann Rebecca ?

8:59 toot toot 9:07 toot toot 9:14 toot toot toooot

Ok bet

8:44 "Amazing, a booby trap that actually catches boobies" - Optimus Prime 1985

*HES GOT HANDS AGAIN YIPPIE*

Where dit you buy the couplers

who composed the music at 0:26?

What about other engines like Edward or Henry Or even Percy or Toby?

Why does the first Bachmann Thomas in the Catalog look better than the current one?

Bro took the model, and massively improved it, Not that the OG one was bad, I'm just saying you made it even better. Great Video as Always! Also that Ending is Peak, Nothing can get better than a Giant Toby on a Rampage tbh.

1:42 to 1:47😂🤣

Tbh, the bachmann engines sold over here in the UK, they cost way less than they are actually worth in the US. Say that Thomas is sold for 119 dollars, over here it's 79 pounds. Which is twenty dolars less. I don't know why. It must have cost a lot to ship them over from the US.

9:35 Toby Next???

Can you do percy

hornby thomas characters had 3+ in the uk all the way until the end, bachamnn have always done 8+

Toby next?

I saw it when it was 6 minutes out

Was that Lady Madonna at the beginning?

9:34 Toby?

The opening theme sounds like lady madonna 🤔

800th like

Is Thomas the movie canceled

HAI

was that Super7 Optimus Prime in the background?! Okay, no, but still...which Optimus Prime is that?

I really want them to retool the Thomas or make a higher quality version for more money idk they can just improve their Thomas range a LOT but they most likely won’t. Although this, at least they are affordable.

Ryan is a really good model, but ine thing i really dont like is them stupidly LONG couplings Bachmann gave him, they were meant to be elongated versions of the old Mainline/Bachmann couplings for Toby but now theyre just sticking them on every new release for no reason especially when they don't need them. The old couplings are much better as they keep your locos and wahons all nice and close together in a prototypical length.

Is Ryan Gordon's cousin?!?!

I'm sorry is that James steaming

I can kind of see how the packaging design has been rather dated in terms of their other ranges containing firmer secured boxes, that the 00 line still doesn't changed up, leaves the models getting scratched (like with SamTrains' Ryan) With the next stock of engines such as Beau (who's just a retool of their Western locos) Rebecca, and Stanley (who is yet to be manufactered in 2024) i hope certain viewers don't receive them damaged in international shipment. btw, Bachmann really did not have to use Oliver's wheels for Ryan at all.

Ima eat that Ryan

200 dollars YES BUDGET why bachman WHYYYYY

I really dislike how they used coach buffers on all the engines they just look so wrong. Great model I don't have much interest in the N2's nor Ryan, but your model looks great.

This is so good. If this doesn’t finally get me into custom modeling, idk what will. 🥲
