BrickEconomy Expert Review
“Despite its higher price and larger brick count compared to the earlier Thomas & Friends starter set 5554, this set offers a significant improvement with a comprehensive package for an engaging train set experience right out of the box. It provides ample track.”
BrickEconomy
“From a Thomas & Friends perspective I like that the set includes the two most important characters - Thomas and the Fat Controller. The windmill is also a good inclusion as it's so recognizable from the TV series.”
