Why the hell does this knockoff look better than anything we've gotten since 2017
Mattel figured it out, they can make garbage and people will still continue to buy it. So like, why try am I right?
very true!
This is a thousand times better than the revolutions
2015 to be honest.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a knockoff look so real before. Normally it’s obvious, but it’s definitely not here.
The only one that came close was the tomy knockoff - but again, this one definetly amazed me
A few years ago my mom accidentally bought me a fake diesel ten, and I honestly love it. It’s pretty much identical to the real one and because it was from my mom I can’t help but have a special place in my heart for it
I read somewhere about how super accurate bootlegs like this get made. The factories in China that produce the official toys are occasionally rented out nights and days they'd normally be closed to bootleggers who bring their own inferior cheap material. The official packaging is even partially used sometimes.
Probably someone found the moulds for the original tm engines and just uses them.
@@greatgordonfan7094 that happens too.
@@dexstewart862 The busy bee james, AA powered dodge, AA arry and bert and other engines in counterfeit form could all have been dropped tm designs as the revolutions took over
@@greatgordonfan7094 just praying they find a Tomy Oliver mould lol
For fake merch it looks pretty accurate.
Let's go!!! Absolutely awesome man, you really knocked this outta the park.
Knockoffs may not be officially sanctioned... But they can be amazing and/or hilarious
Cool. I like it when James falls off the table.
The colab we’ve been dying to see, this was great, the screw thing was too funny 🤣
For a knock off Thomas toy, this looks pretty real and cool.
That’s gotta be one of the most convincing knockoffs I have seen in my days
Oh, nice to see a review with you and Tons of Trackmaster! And honestly, I thought that version of james was legit lol. Loved this
for some reason i have a feeling they will rise in sales due to it being identical to old trackmaster instead of tm2
That's typically how knockoffs gain popularity. The transformers franchise has similar things going on where the knockoff makers give the fans what they want while somehow staying out of the rights owners sights.
@@TheGreyTurtleEntertainment they aren't really knockoffs they're catagorized as third party figures.
You and Unlucky Tug are really bringing this community into the modern age. I love to listen to you both while I'm at work. If I could give a single bit of critique, it'd be that when you end your sentences, I've noticed you tend to cut to the next one very quickly, if that makes sense? Either way, keep up the good work. Every video you make is an absolute joy.
As a Thomas Collector myself, I have come across a few knock off items of my own. One in particular I actually found at a local arcade. He's quite an....interesting little fella. Definitely a clear knock off of a thomas toy with almost no attempt to even replicate a real toy. From classic typos on the box, to a hilariously messed up thomas inside, it's quite honestly a highlight of my collection.
If u were interested, I'd be willing to send you pics and vids of this....train (if you can even call it that) in action. He's quite the interesting fella :)
Edit: now that I think about it, seeing you review a compilation of obviously knock off thomas toys would definitely be an interesting idea!
Rock raises eyebrow
When I saw that “Oh crap” poster in the background.
I felt that.
1:23 *Gold Exists*
TrainBoy: No thanks
*Genie with 100 wishes*
TrainBoy: I'll pass
*Fountain of Youth*
TrainBoy: Meh
*Knockoff James Merchandise*
TrainBoy: I MUST HAVE IT!!!!!
I have a knockoff Tomy Thomas set. I only really got it because it came with this sweet container flatcar!
Why are your videos so amusing. I'm 26 and if my gf ever finds out that I'm watching a UA-cam guy talking about Tomas the train she might leave me.
Any time I hear about the dark side of Thomas merch it brings me back to being like 14 watching leokimvideo here on UA-cam on the subject his videos are pretty entertaining
There quite common here especially on Shopee and Lazada where I buy most of my plarail
these are the highest quality knockoffs though, they're cooler as they mix different drives and chassis and other stuff
well good to see trainboy iis back
Being that FisherPrice has singlehandedly ruined the TrackMaster range, I would gladly purchase any product that would undercut their profits and bypass their executives wallets.
Nice video though!
Fair play lol
My dad bought me a knock off James when I was five years old and I didn’t notice that it was a knock off until I was eight and I just laughed to death 💀😅😂😎
Pretty cool item. These are really interesting
ye
‘Which, i may add, SLAPPED.’
*SLAPPED*
most if not all of ,my old trackmaster engines (pre 09) that had tenders were attatched and took c batteries in the tenders.
Yeah surely that's the easiest way to know it's a fake - the buzz buzz James (official) was released before the change to batteries in the engines... But it didn't get brought up?
Hey man, don't feel bad you got a bootleg, I buy high quality bootlegs of 3.75" Star Wars figures on Ebay all the time. The bootleg Phase 2 Clone Troopers are AMAZING, and near-original. The only problem, is that the joints for the arms and legs are stiff compared to the original molds of the figures.
“I don’t think it felt like this” -TrainBoy 2022
7:38 Oh my paintwork oh my beautiful paintwork
I’m now crying this reminded me of my childhood so badly- ;-;
Last scen was like james acting as timothy 😂falling of cliff
I’m considering buying some of these knockoffs to butcher and customize
I mean probably cheaper than using classics 🤣
That’s something that every franchise would have so I’m not suprised
AU trainboy: his childhood busy bee james was the knock off
yoo tons of trackmasters and trainboy collab lets go
Very epic
ah yes the legend himself replies
I see a fake Thomas bubble blower in a toy stand every time I go the Glendale Americana, It makes me want to gag.
I was gonna ask if the screw got put back in but the end answers that question for me.
Leokimvideo: finnaly a worthy opponant. our battle will be legendary
I'm sorry, but the the fact he had that underlying feeling that the damn things would fucking explode, immediately followed by him turning it on and seeing how slow it was going was funny to me.
I rather that shit than the updated track master they have today😂
Me too bro 😭
At Trackmaster bee James looks so cool now I know in like super suspicious I'm not really a big fan of knockoffs but this looks absolutely amazing and I love the Bee James toys they just look so cool in my opinion 😎
"Lets give this guy some quick running time"
*one second of movement later...*
IT'S A CRUEL WORLD
It's possible this is a bootleg made by the factory which made some trackmaster stuff, and they just used old molds and project files. Its possible there may of been a James goes buzz buzz CGI prototype and its just somehow now got mass produced by this factory
7:36
*Well that escalated quickly*
0:12 I had this same exact set when I was younger
Is it possible the counterfeiters got a hold of some genuine surplus packaging?
lmao that was great, honestly the obvious difference to tell its a knock off is that james was not “the red nosed engine” like with other products such as the wooden engine note: i do not own a legit james goes buzz buzz product of any sort apart from the episode in best of james on dvd
Some fake stuff can look like the original because their trying to trick you and other people I recommend getting Ertl or nakayoshi bandai because they have no knockoffs
This counterfeit appears to have been made from the remaining stock of the real Classic Trackmasters
6:04 I have that hart screwdriver I got it for Christmas with persion screwdrivers
For a fake trackmaster engine. He looks decent
I wish the true stories of would return also who remembers og trackmaster
Me: Mum can we get busy bee James?
Mum: No we have busy bee James at him
Busy bee James at home:
It's no secret that buying a knockoff is seldom a good thing, but all things considered, this one is well put together. Heck, it's unironically better than what the OFFICIAL Trackmaster range has become.
Trainboy at The end of video be like: YEEEEEEEEET
This is almost like comparing Jordan shoes to fake ones
On this episode of Thomas Darkside
The creators of this toy: THOMAS THE BANK ENGINE
We live in a world where knock-off can be better then the actual brand
Long live the Gigachad of the fandom
Call it a CGI version of James Goes Buzz Buzz
Those fake tm items look better than anything tm we've gotten in a while
I might buy one off these because they're pretty much the same as the real
That’s a interesting topic to review .Do more !
Dang my boi ton Got in contact with TrainBoy
It's a shame that I almost met TrainBoy
Because I live near Entertainment Train Junction But I didn't even know that he was going there
Great review man enjoy the rest of your day
If there was a bootleg Reneas, there would be a smudger
I cant wait to leokimvedio to see this
"Well come to the dark side"
Hope Mattel doesn't claim the video...
*I actually purchased both a Donald and Douglas from that same seller most likely..*
It's interesting to say the least I think that it would just be a direct copy but I have never seen a buzz buz track master James before so yeah for soldier I'm pretty lost to say the least
Thailand unlicensed Buzzy Bee James
Wow, and here I thought Leokimvideo covered all of the fake knock off to Thomas products
Hey man, weird question but I love that blue hoodie you have on, any idea where you got it?
It's James Goes Buzz Buzz NOT Busy Bee
Epic
trackmaster is my favorite thomas toy
Scary it looks real
i agree with the intro
holy video resolution batman
Perfect way to end the video, demonstrating why no one should buy these knock off toys. Adult fans are gonna have a crappy product that falls apart and parents buying for their kids are going to have a product that won't survive playtime and is downright dangerous to their kids
I bought two of the fake Gordons and I regret nothing.
Some knockoffs look just awful but this one is scarily accurate
You should do another review on a knock-off toy
Could you also analize some thomas and friends takenplay fake merch, Ive seen a lot of it in diference apps like alliexpress and even on ebay and i would like to know your opinion about it.
i just hate knockoffs. its like when a little kid is getting a trackmaster thomas for the first time, hes like: GOD THATS A HORRYFING FACE.
This makes me scared that my James is fake ( I got this in an S&D kids with Gordon and a take n play Thomas) it makes a weirder noise than the regular
These are beautiful I love it!
Is it just me...or is fake trackmasters actually really good...idk tell me what u think 👇
Woah cool
Could you do a unblocking of the steam making Thomas, ynow the one where you use water to make the steam
Why did some track master locomotives come with the japanese style break van
Probably the batteries didn’t work because they weren’t c cells
Awsum video ❤️🚂👍👍👍👍👍
Omg it’s tons Whats up tons how is tons doing train boy
We be buzzin here
@@TonsOfTrackmasters oh that’s great
Should I buy him?
bee jumez boi
Its Really Werid How they look like the real deal
