Tomica toy trial


We have been lucky enough to be chosen as part of the Kidspot Tomica toy trial.  a huge box arrived this morning, with 4 wrapped 'presents' inside.  the kids thought it was christmas!  so far so good, everything is set up, and we (read, mummy) was very excited to find that the track is the same as the road Tomy Motor road and rail thomas sets (what was taken over by Trackmaster).  we have 3 50L starmaid boxes full of blue track, plus plenty of road (the road in the new sets is card board, so not as durable as the old plastic track, something i'll have to point out in my review).  otherwise, though, the sets are gorgeous.  we have a train (a very modern train, so different to all the thomas)and a train station, a mechanic shop, a pizza shop, 2 vehicles (one car and one scooter), and 3 people (a stationmaster, a pizza delivery guy and a mechanic), and an extra 4 pack of straight track.  i can't wait to have the time and the room to put this modern city into our thomas tracks.
The box, i had no idea what it was


the sets still in their boxes
