Thomas & Friends: Thomas Gets Tricked / Thomas' Halloween Adventures Double Feature [DVD]

It was fun to look back on early episodes of one of my favorite shows.

What's better than a Thomas DVD, 2 Thomas dvds

Thomas Gets Tricked is one of the Best Thomas and Friends DVD ever! Why? Because this DVD contains the 1st 7 Thomas the Tank Engine episodes ever! Yep you are reading this right! The episodes that started it all. This is where you'll meet the first 5 engines: Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon and James as well as Annie and Clarabel, the Foolish Freight Cars and of course Sir Topham Hatt. All stories being told by its OG narration: 'The Beatles' Ringo Starr.Here are the first 7 episode being told on this DVD1. Thomas Gets Tricked - The one that started it all.

My young son was/is a HUGE Thomas the Tank Engine fan. As he was growing up I purchased many of these VHS Tapes and later DVDs for him to watch. It was my observation that he enjoyed hearing Ringo Star's voice as the narrator above all the others, and so, many videos were watched more repeatedly than others.They are all fun to watch, with beautiful scenic backgrounds, and beautiful model trains. The voices and scenarios are both fun and educational, and every episode comes with a lesson to be learned in it. This particular video also came with a toy train that fit his collection, and could be used on the same wooden tracks.While my son is older now - seven and no longer two or three (the pinnacle of his Thomas days), I still get nostalgic seeing these, and will occasionally put one into the DVD player when no one else is around. Great fun for kids and parents alike.

I bought three of these older original Thomas stories for my niece's son so haven't actually seen them myself. However, my niece said that her son loves them and she thinks they are better than the newer ones she has bought. These are the original stories narrated by Ringo Starr that my son loved, age 21, along with my husband and I, quite a while ago. I think the words my niece used were more quaint and innocent than the newer stories. I think that they would be the best ones to introduce Thomas and his fellow engines to any child. Look for narration by Ringo Starr and next George Carlin. These are the earlier ones.

Well, as far as graphics and animation goes, these movies are pretty crude. The only moving part id trains and a static wooden tiny pieces are used for everyone else including people. Except for the trains talking part the stories are short, simple and very realistic. Not all stories are good-feel, many-a-times stories have rather sad endings like a train ending in accident. The idea is to stress on the lesson learned from each short story.Although can't complain much, as my 3 years old love to watch them!

It is a wonderful British television show for kids and adults. The detail that is presented in these real miniatures is magical. Ringo Starr of The Beatles fame lends his voice and narrates this wonderful program which is a major bonus for anyone.

Good for kids

Genial, a mi hijo le encantó. Pese a ser de otra zona. Puede verse en computadora sin problema alguno.
