Hey James I don’t know if I brought this up before just an idea, and if I did I apologize, I was wondering that I know your not a big fan of the prequels of Star Wars, but when you do episode 3, would it be possible to do the scene of Ganakin slaughtering the separatists on Mustafar? That would be such a cool scene to see. Plus having his force ghost at the end of ep 9 as well while also helping Baby Brolo on Majora’s Moon 2.0 with Mario
This needs to be a movie! It could revive the whole Thomas the Train franchise. I can’t believe it’s dying. My son loved Thomas and these remakes. Michael Bay needs to make this a full-engagement feature film.
Hello! I'm trainsformer's fan. I'm Korean and 14 years old. I don't speak English well. haha. I remember seeing Trainsformer when I was four and I loved it a lot. Every day, I watched it, and wrote a picture book about it. This time, I felt like I was watching the Avengers:Endgame. I'm so thrilled. Finally, I'm very grateful that you made this video. I love you.
A two year old video just appeared on my feed... A crossover fusion I never thought I would need. What did i watch? I haven't a clue. Transformers and trains... A new take on big blue! How's this a thing? Why haven't I seen this before? Guess I'm binging this channel. I've got to see more.
@@florjanbrudar692 he’s.. clearly a teen just because of science and how humans work and how humans age.. the original trainsformers was in 2009 and he was really young and it’s now been 12 years since then so yea..
It isn't an April fool's joke, but the parts that feel like one is the way they talk, the villain that is combined from many others, and the fact that all of them combined just to anticlimactically flick his head off.
(12 years ago) When I discovered Opthomas Prime, I was 6. Im 18 and honestly I can only say that Opthomas has more maturity. You have more maturity. Thank you brother
I just couldn’t believe it. There’s just no way!! That OpThomas is back and here to save the day!! A company like Mattel may have ruined our Blue Star. But then came Trainsformers, made by James Farr!! The animation was awesome, and deserves so much praise. The crew who made this deserve a really huge raise!!

This is what makes me smile,people from the Thomas and friends community making stuff like this. I grew up with the older trains formers and you drop this. I love this!!
You have no idea how much this means to my son and I. He was like Vector and in diapers when we watched the first one. Now he is 10 and loves this even more. Thank you for helping create memories for my son and I. They grow up too fast.
You know, the first Trainsformers came out in a time where it could have easily just been another edgy, dark parody animation. But nah, it's lighthearted, awesome, and pretty sweet in its subject matter. I think that's why people have such fond memories of this series. Congrats to you and your family, Mr. Farr.
This video is the best. Seeing vector Grown up can really bring a tear. This show was and is still the best thing you’ve ever made. Once again, thanks for forming my childhood.
@@JFCStudiosYT watch the transformations of episode 1 and reborn in 0.25 speed carefully. It's a different model. I think they used a smaller fuel pack that has the same charge specs but requires less subs.
Forget Mattel's idea of All Engines Go, this is the REAL 2D reboot that Thomas and his friends truly deserve, where it's not just all engines, but ALL FRIENDS go!
This is better left as an parody. But in all seriousness they could learn from the better artstyle here. And every other idea would be better than MATTEL's reboot.
YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! Trainsformers was my childhood! I Just cant belive its Back!! Thank You James Farr! and thank you vector!!! and everybody who worked on this!!!! Thank You!!!
This right here is truly the best Thomas Internet parody Designs are so well animated, and accurate to the show (even though that almost cost your life) I even love the callbacks to the original shorts like the husband and wife getting stuck at the railway crossing or all the villains from previous shorts smashed together as one you did a phenomenal job with this!
Nine years ago i watched a masterpiece called trains-formers, and now i just watched one of the most awesome new videos in that series, my god its been a ride.
Thank you Vector for humoring this and agreeing to star in this again. Your voice work has been a fundamental contribution to many people's childhoods.
This was my childhood! I remember watching these while animating in PowerPoint. All these years later now... still animating in PowerPoint haha (though much improved over the years).

Thank you for the kind words, and welcome back. I actually started animating in PowerPoint as well - waaay back in the dark ages of 1998. The transition to Adobe (previously Macromedia) Flash was relatively easy for me due to my PowerPoint experience. All that to say, I'd highly encourage you to give it a shot. It's currently called Adobe Animate, and is much easier to pick up than it used to be. If I can do it, anyone can. 😂

We all thought the story was over, and the legacy had died. Only to realise the real story, has just begun I’ve been watching this series for years and I have never expected this to continue. The legacy of Thomas still continues
Just finished watching this again, finally got to show my 12,year old son this. We used to watch these together when he was younger. He loved it too. I’m not sure which one of us is the bigger kid lol
Words cannot... Words cannot describe how *LONG* I have awaited this day. At last. AND VECTOR'S ALL GROWN UP! :D I remember seeing and loving this show as a little kid. The nostalgia has returned! Nice seeing you James Farr!
I remember how much action the last 5 episodes were. The 3rd one was my favorite, but when I saw the gauge of extinction parody trailer, it was next level action.
You know, now looking back on the series, I can actually admire this quite a bit, this animation did something nobody else thought of an I thought that was super duper interesting
Forget the Fun Police! This is awesome! Thank you for bringing this back into my life again! I remember how much I loved this and then when the Fun Police came along, they ruined everything! Thank you so much! Trainformers forever! 🚂🤖
I used to watch Trains Formers all the time as I child and I thought of making my own parody of it. This comeback was a lovely one. I still love Trains Formers

i remember the nostalgia as a kid watching these THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEND HAS RETURNED and my wish came true all of the steam team came together and combined this will e monumental in history
This was well worth the wait when I was younger I saw the Orignal ones at the age of like 6-7 maybe. After that, I could never find it again. Then you began to make animations for Mark, Jack, and Zackscott, I found you again. From there channels, I began to dig through your work until I found the original Trainsformers remastered, and let me tell you the smile you put on my face was so big it stayed for the rest of the day, you may never read this but thank you for creating my childhood and congrats on 500K I hope someday you'll hit 1M and when you do I'll remain here to see it. Good luck out there Mr. Farr can't wait to see what you produce next!

We all thought the story was over, and the legacy had died.
Only to realise the real story, has just begun
I’ve been watching this series for years and I have never expected this to continue.
The legacy of Thomas still continues
You mean OPThomas

Im not surprised are little hero boy is a bit older
At least he grew up with us right?
@@pixelcat29 it’s almost the same name as that Steamworks engine and that train engineer
Just finished watching this again, finally got to show my 12,year old son this. We used to watch these together when he was younger.
He loved it too. I’m not sure which one of us is the bigger kid lol
This just brings me so much nostalgia and joy! I’m glad to see this back!
Welcome back.

Imagine how happy vector would be to see his old friend returning
Thomas said she's number one hero
“OpThomas Prime, you’re back!”
“Of course I’m back, everybody knows I’m number o- what the?”
Yeah
Remember the time he couldn’t properly speak?
“Well said little buddy. Well said”
Said Thomas while rethinking why he had such a driver
I remember how much action the last 5 episodes were. The 3rd one was my favorite, but when I saw the gauge of extinction parody trailer, it was next level action.
Vvv funk b hl4 bb dan DHL go go HP h
And when the world needed him the most, he returned.
Yes
Yup
Our number 1 hero has finally returned
Plot twist: Sir Thopham just really hates The amount of screen time Thomas is getting and that he isn’t in the reboot.
makes sense
Actually I believe he is but is used as a joke.
Plot twist Thomas is gay and likes rip off Tommy init
@@Go0uses stfu
@@Go0uses Thomas isn’t ripping off tommy innit thomas started in 1945
This is the only instance in where animating Thomas in a 2D style is okay.
True
And it's predate 8 years ago
Take that back 10 years ago
ATT on Titan turn it down
You know, now looking back on the series, I can actually admire this quite a bit, this animation did something nobody else thought of an I thought that was super duper interesting
Hell. Yes. This hits ALL of the nostalgia buttons for Trainsformers. Coolest thing I’ve seen in a good while.
😂

I was 7 when I first watched this series. Now I’m 76 and I’m in tears when they made this. I can die in peace amen and awomen
No you are not you are not fooling anyone you didn’t exist that long ago
Lmao
7? Now your 76? Tf
Yes! This is what all the Thomas fans wanted, and it is going to be very exciting! EDIT: Wow! I am getting a lot of likes now on my comment! :D

Forget the Fun Police! This is awesome! Thank you for bringing this back into my life again! I remember how much I loved this and then when the Fun Police came along, they ruined everything! Thank you so much! Trainformers forever! 🚂🤖
تماتىوىت
yes
I used to watch Trains Formers all the time as I child and I thought of making my own parody of it. This comeback was a lovely one. I still love Trains Formers
When Mattel announced the reboot they also unknowingly made a call for a former hero to return.
Opthomas prime
Thomas said she's number one hero
@@josegarica2435 It’s a he not she
They've angered something.
They've angered, The Trainsformers.
Look out Mattel. You've got Trouble Brewing.
@@josegarica2435 oh hell naw. Thomas is a girl? Then that means in Rosie is red...
The nostalgia just punched me harder than a bullet train.
Two of my favorite fandoms combined together 😁
Now Thomas looks twice as good 😳

Those haters have not even seen it
@@RWSfan2024 maybe. maybe..
No need to make it cringe
haters: My Argument is Falling Apart!
Opthomas Omega is now my favorite combination of Trainsformers history! we need more!
I can’t believe that you’re continuing the series after so long!
Decades of meme culture has led to this. And it's beautiful.
Truly the superior 2D Thomas series

I need more Trainsfromers, the whole series was a massive part of my childhood, and it still holds up so good!!!
1 year since this was released and this is still amazing! Still can't believe you managed to animate this. Like, my god, this is so detailed!
😂😂😢😊🎉
I am excited that Opthomas Prime Is Back, And I Have Been Watching The Trainsformers Movie!!!
Hold up. Since when was there a movie?
@@TracksideManiac Look The Trainsformers Are Likely Based On The Actually Transformers Movies!!
Oh
Lmao that one comment in the chat “THE FAT CONTROLLER!!!”
I remember watching this series as a kid and absolutely loved it so I'm happy that you made more.
seeing Thomas turn into a transformer and combining with his friends and turn into a megazord like thing.
aah good times
I'm honestly at tears at just the sheer love for Thomas you have. Thank you so much after all this time.
Childhood remembered and reborn with new fun to be had and (great quality to go with it) being shown in a whole new light.
Not everything uploaded on April Fools has to be a joke. This is not a joke, it’s a miracle.
I love how everyone is rhyming with the song in the background
Thank you! That was tricky.
3:16
*we’ve all been waiting for this*
I used to watch this series when I was younger and obsessed with Thomas and I just see this in my YT recommended, Nice to see it's back
To what my love to you and the family is great too much of a job with me and you can you kindly send me the link for
i remember the nostalgia as a kid watching these THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEND HAS RETURNED and my wish came true all of the steam team came together and combined this will e monumental in history
Yes
4:47 not the [KC SFX] again
This was well worth the wait when I was younger I saw the Orignal ones at the age of like 6-7 maybe. After that, I could never find it again. Then you began to make animations for Mark, Jack, and Zackscott, I found you again. From there channels, I began to dig through your work until I found the original Trainsformers remastered, and let me tell you the smile you put on my face was so big it stayed for the rest of the day, you may never read this but thank you for creating my childhood and congrats on 500K I hope someday you'll hit 1M and when you do I'll remain here to see it. Good luck out there Mr. Farr can't wait to see what you produce next!
Hey hey! I DID read this, and thank you so so much. Welcome back to the channel! Hope you love what's next. :)
@@JamesFarrOfficial where are Oliver Donald and Douglas?
