Thomas and Friends Adventures Wiki

## Welcome to the Thomas and Friends Adventures Wiki

Adventures is a Thomas and Friends die-cast toy range produced by Fisher-Price and the successor to the Take-n-Play range. The design of the engines and vehicles is very similar to the Collectible Railway range, while the track system is different from either range.

## Trivia

* Adapters to connect Adventures track and trains to those of Take-n-Play are available directly from Fisher-Price.
* The engine models are the same as those of the Collectible Railway and 2014-onwards Take-n-Play. As such, they share many of the same characteristics, including:
	+ Edward, Henry and Merlin are incorrectly depicted as 2-6-0's.
	+ Henry is incorrectly depicted with a Fowler tender.
	+ Gordon is depicted with a 0-6-2 wheel arrangement.
	+ Hiro, Spencer, Connor, Belle and Caitlin are depicted with a 2-6-2 wheel configuration.
* Some of the tender engine's prototypes are depicted with Fowler tenders, when the actual model has the correct tender body.
* Many of the tender engines have the red footplate (chocolate for Emily or either colour for each engine) above their wheels, much like their Take-n-Play predecessors and unlike their Collectible Railway models which had the tender molded onto the footplates themselves, which are same color as the tender itself.
* Gina has her nameplate only on her right side.
* Trevor's wheels are grey instead of red, much like his Take Along predecessor.
* Hugo's wheels are black instead of blue.
	+ His propeller also has three blades instead of four blades.
* Diesel's face is printed on, much like the ones on the Minis toy range.
* In the Monster Maker Train Pack prototype, Gator is seen wearing a duplicate middle piece from Max.
* The Talking Space Mission Thomas' space helmet is the same as the Stanley in Space model's helmet.
* Space Mission Thomas, Dino Discovery James, Pirate Quest Diesel and Shark Escape Salty are all US, AUS and UK-exclusives.
* Timothy's promotional image depicts him with a full red buffer beam, similar to his Take-n-Play predecessor, but the produced item incorrectly has the red coloring on the bottom half with the top half being blue.
* The Space Mission Thomas, Dino Discovery James, Pirate Quest Diesel and Shark Escape Salty models all use their molds from the pre-2014 era of Take-n-Play, though their chassis are the same as their normal Adventures models.
	+ They also feature the same voices as their Take-n-Play counterparts.
* Some rolling stock's coupling hooks are black and do not rotate.
* Kevin is shown to have a front coupling and rail wheels, inaccurately depicting him as a railway vehicle much like his 2014-2016 Take-n-Play predecessor.
* The prototype Light-Up Racer engines only have a front light, which look similar to their Take-n-Play predecessors, while the produced models just have a front coupling hook.
* The Shark Escape Track Pack and Space Mission Track Pack are re-themed variants of the Bridges and Bends Track Pack and the Curves and Straights Track Pack respectively.
* Oliver (Excavator) is incorrectly labeled as a crane.
* Theo is missing his name plate and he also has no front coupling hook. This is because his face is too low down to accommodate one.
	+ His Promo also depicts him without his gear-spokes on his biggest gear.
* Merlin's running board is re-used from Henry's.
* Frankie's eyes lack eyelashes.
* On the 'Dino Discovery' set box artwork, Luke has Thomas' face.
* Jack and Theo's coupling hooks are abnormally high.
* Shane's prototype is missing his front coupling hook.
* The 'Charlie's Day at the Quarry' play set lists Thomas on the blurb rather than Charlie.
