I find it hilarious. And brilliant on Lionel's part. Scooby Doo was enjoyed by not only myself, but dozens of kids from the 60's. Although, they should make more O gauge Thomas and Friends in my opinion. We almost had Mavis and she was canceled. I think they're might be enough demand for the rest of the steam team. Maybe we'll get them after we get some more AFOT's.(My personal acronym for Adult Fans of Thomas. XD)

Big Scooby fan here...but they seem to have pasted the "Thomas" description 

under the Locomotive specs refers to "Chuffing steam". Anybody else notice that? I will post my

Mystery Machine made out of Lego parts adapted on to E-Z Streets frame.

Not on my version of the Big Book which it's the online version. They must have fixed it there, but the physical catalog might be misprinted.

I'd love to see a Hanna Barbera themed train, since most kids today don't even know who half of them are, especially since boomerang went south. Maybe a Yogi Bear train, with boxcars/other cars relating to HB characters? I don't know. I just think it's a shame that so many great classic characters aren't being used/aired anymore, maybe an HB reboot is needed.

I always wanted a Mystery Machine for the superstreets going around the layout! They need to have some figures too!

I picked up a Mystery Machine at York.  Wonder how hard it would be to convert?  Or get a VW bus from ETS or a Super Streets van and do a repaint.

Already been done by Hot Wheels in 1:43, except it’s a static model.

I'm gonna probably pass on it. I have other priorities right now, and I'm waiting on the re-release of the Thomas set with Bluetooth. I'm hoping they get his whistle right this time and not that ugly sounding one. If not I'll cave and buy the previous non-Bluetooth version. I already have Annie and Clarabel, so I don't need a whole new set if they don't change the whistle. I honestly don't know what to do. Better sounding whistle VS the extra money that the Bluetooth version costs which isn't worth it if there's not a new whistle...meh.

My local train store said they would have the catalog in a week. Went back the following week and got a catalog. As he handed it to me he said I needed to get my order in the next 3-4 days. 

The catalog had been online online for a bit, but still...

When does Lionel actually pull the plug on something, and how many pending pre-orders do they need to justify a run. I suppose it's different for different items. That is one that might be worthy of an order just so they're not 1 order short of being a reality.
