THAT WOULD BE TREV

CAME FROM A GEO TRAX  SET A COUPLE YEARS AGO

THAT IS ONE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE IN THE MEGA SIZE LINE

Love the collection, BBigMike! That's a really cool looking white & black Strip Weathers on the top shelf.

I'd have to agree about Trev.  He has been one of my son's favorites ever since his first viewing of Cars.  If Mattel had only made a Mega diecast Trev, we would have bought him straightaway – top of the list for sure. I almost bought this Geotrax one a while back, but had to abide by one of my arbitrary spending rules – 1:55 diecast only, unless the toy in question is done really really well.  One reason I think it is a marketing failure is that Trev perfectly bridges the gap between Cars land and the Island of Sodor, but hey maybe they'll end up making a wooden Trev for the TRU wooden Cars line….

You are right! It was the post with the vote on the final group of cars – Circus Cars, Albert Hickey, Barry Diesel, etc….  Pretty amazing that they actually made Barry Diesel, AND actually made him available to everyone! Would an HO scale model train work for a 1:55 Trev?  Here is the T5AD pic from that post….
