thomas minis special engines
i decided to split the special engines from the main page to make it easier to view. this page will include light ups, fizz n go, glow in the dark etc.
glow in the dark
this 5 pack was released in 2016. it comes with thomas, percy, james, charlie and paxton. each features different designs, and i like percys the best. im going to try and rig up a small blacklight box to bring out the glow at shows and things.
neon glow in the dark
these two 5 packs from 2018 feature some great decals in really bright colors. one pack is listed as "cool", while the other is "sweet."
The Sweet pack has Millie, Stanley, Salty, Charlie, and Rosie. Its color scheme is mainly blue, pink, purple and yellow.
The Cool pack has Hiro, Scruff, Bertie, Spencer and Gordon. Its color scheme is mainly blue, green, orange and red.

light ups
currently there are 5 different packs. they contain belle and flynn, charlie and rosie, james and emily, percy and ben and finally thomas and stephen. each engine has a variety of flash patterns, ranging from fast to slow, intermittent and solid. they are much more effective than I first thought.
fizz n go cargo
these were released in 2019 and come as either thomas or percy. each comes with a cattle wagon containing a block that fizzes and dissolves in water, revealing one of 6 pets. the pets are not branded as Thomas or fisher-price, but do have an upper case T in a circle on their side.

these were delivered on day 1 of the new Zealand covid19 lockdown. unfortunately, amazon stuffed and one again delivered two the same due to a sticker on the bottom of the box. I cant return it due to the lockdown so will have to rebuy it. I am missing the rabbit.
fizz n go mega pack
slimy surprise cargo
only 3 so far, thomas, scruff, salty.
the engines, animals and crates all glow, and the crates have great embossing of the Thomas minis logo and woodgrain effect. they look like they would fit a tomy troublesome truck. the minis themselves don't quite fit inside, a smidge too long.
one major plus is the slime comes in a bag hidden behind the cardboard crate in the pack, while the animal comes in the crate. really pleased mattel kept them separate.
