Today's the 45th anniversary of "Star Wars: A New Hope". And the birthdays of actors Mike Myers and Frank Oz. And also the 39th anniversary of Return of the Jedi, and Goofy's 90th anniversary.
Yep, Gumby was dangerously out-of-character in that one! Art Clokey even later disowned that episode ("Point of Honor"), especially since he didn't actually write most of the late 1960s "Gumby" episodes, thus leading to out-of-character bits like that.
@@ZakWolf I think it's kinda badass. I can imagine a bully asking for a fight after school, he shows up with five of his friends, and then suddenly they hear the ground shaking, and then I show up riding on top of a steam locomotive They then say something like "that's not fair" and I'll reply with "you didn't say what type of fight" and then steam is relased everywhere, the whistle sounds, and they all scatter and run away. That would be epic. Wouldn't try to actually hit them though.
@ 0:24 Gumby's going to a toy store. This from the episode, "Train Trouble". Funny thing, Gumby lives in a toy store (also known as Toyland) and he's going to a smaller toy store in the bigger toy store where he lives to finds his runaway toy train he won from a contest. A toy store in a toy store @ 0:08.
First clip of Toy store is very early Gumby prototype with Red Dot Eyes that extend out. But magnet scene Gumby has black irises that are flat in his eyes 👀.
Do you wish that model trains exists with those Magic auto generating rails like in this clip? 2:14: That goes to show ‘And if there’s something big on the tracks, it can even make the train turn over’ (After all, this year is the 30th Anniversary of where this reference comes from)
HOWDY DOODY, AND BUFFALO BOB SMITH, had Gumby in the 1950s TV show in black and white, and Gumby was filmed in color for future broadcasts on other stations. Now we had VHS tapes, and DVD, and now digital, soon new 3D-c.g.i, COOOOOL!!!!! HI IN MAY 2023A.D.!!
Gumby rides on top of engine 2035, yet I wonder if Mr. CLOKEY had known the LOS ANGELES LIVE STEAMERS and Miniature Railroad in Griffith Park. And also Mr. WALT DISNEY had his backyard live steamer 4-4-0 American in 1956, and I saw his photo in the old POPULAR MECHANICS MAGAZINE from my dad.
Nope; that's not mine. I took the photo at a model train show, and it's probably not the same one used on "Gumby". But since it was a mass-produced locomotive, I am still looking to buy one, as I do have some O-scale Lionel trains, in addition to my HO-scale layout.
@@ZakWolfas a fan of diesels as much as I am a fan of steamers am I the only one that was a little disappointed that we didn’t see a little bit more of that blue streamlined diesel? I wonder what it’s sounds would’ve been like in this video?
That's probably why they only did it in "Train Trouble," as an early attempt at making an O-scale model train appear to be sentient. Being from 1959, the animation is also a bit rougher than the rest of the shorts here from the 1960s.
@@WesternOhioInterurbanHistory, at least with that one they used clay for the magic train focusing his smoke box towards Pokey and Prickle, and so it looked less awkward than it did with the Lionel 2035 here. It was also neat how they used that battery-operated Bump-n-Go "Classic" Train painted black for the close-ups and a kitbashed TYCO 2-6-2 steam locomotive for long and medium-shots.
Yep, the Lionel 2035 is loosely based on the PRR K4 steam engines, complete with PRR logo number plate, but the tender car would read "LIONEL LINES" (here they covered it up, probably for licensing or copyright reasons; if you look closely at 1:03 you can barely make out the blacked-out "LIONEL LINES" lettering).
Yes, it's based on a Pennsylvania Railroad K4-type steam locomotive, but the tender doesn't say "PENNSYLVANIA." Originally it read "LIONEL LINES", but the artists at Clokey Productions covered it up (most likely for licensing/copyright reasons), and on that side of the tender they put some kind of vague lettering on it, while on the other side they put a fictional railroad insignia over where "LIONEL LINES" was.

Yep, the Lionel 2035 is definitely fashioned after one, complete with PRR keystone number plate on the front of the smokebox. But the tender car actually reads "LIONEL LINES" (though here they covered it up for licensing or copyright reasons).
I didn’t know it appears multiple times in the show! I like to think of it as a recurring character!

JUST UNDER this video, reccomended, is where gordon ramsay cooks with that giant muppet. what a coincidence
Mike Myers is also voice shrek
The tiny locomotive sounds at 2:18 are CUTE!!!
Considering the height of the Lionel 2025 engine gives me a decent idea of how tall Gumby is.
"You said to choose any weapon, well this is mine"
*uses a literal train and attempts to run someone over, eventually hitting them*

A father and son interaction is what I like to call this.

Because the first episode here is from 1959. The rest are from the 1960s.

Yep! And at 1:17, if Gumby weren't a cartoon character, he'd be dead as a doornail!
@@ZakWolf That’s not a bad idea for a meme. If I weren’t a cartoon character, I’d be dead as a doornail.
@@Sunshinesomerset you made no sense there.
@@Amtrak1971 That would only apply to cartoon character.
And by the way, Zak Wolf, you’re seeing the light.

You are awesome 😎
Don't make Gumby mad, he'll run your ass over with a Lionel toy train!
Gumbo: Thank goodness for the internal genitalia.
Gumby: "Pay for my head bump surgery and I'll get you down!"
I'm sorry, but that loud metal clanging sound that's heard at 4:55 when the caboose smacks Prickle out of it's way just makes me laugh. 😆
Indeed, the older "Gumby" episodes had some pretty funky sound effects.
4:05
Gumby commits vehicular homicide and other stories
Cool 😎
That's nice, as long as we don't have to think about the year 2035 which is 13 years from now.
I am thinking, if it still works
Two years ago someone had a lot of time on their hands.
I wonder if this locomotive from a long time ago still works
Gumby always had cool toys
I felt bad for Prickle when Gumby hit him with the train sending him sliding backwards.
Wow. You own an actual 'Gumby' prop.

I wonder where was pokey during the first clip
Nice. 👍
I just wonder what kind of whistle is that at 4:17?
It is JNR C57-1 Whistle.
I don’t like how the smoke box moves, that’s creepy
That's probably why they only did it in "Train Trouble," as an early attempt at making an O-scale model train appear to be sentient. Being from 1959, the animation is also a bit rougher than the rest of the shorts here from the 1960s.
you'll hate the episode "just train crazy" then

@@ZakWolf it makes us ask really weird questions like "how far can the face extend" or "what other parts of the train can extend like that"
3:34 4:41 These are thomas and friends refrences
Good Work With The Video.
I wonder who owns the toy store.
Oh larzears charles
In which gumby cartoons/episodes does the engine appear?
The clips come from "Train Trouble," "The Zoops," "The Reluctant Gargoyles," "Making Squares," "A Bone For Nopey" and "Point Of Honor".
