Thomas and friends blind bag minis was our next video and it too was narrated by Jackie. Unfortunately we couldn't find any Thomas the Train themed decor to use, and we had a grand total of 0 Thomas toys to use as decor. We used to some beanie boos and drew a train track on the marker board to spruce it up a little, but it did not end up looking very dynamic and exciting. The toys were surprisingly great though. These toy trains are about $1.50 each and are by far the least expensive blind bag toys that we've found, but their quality surpassed most of the more expensive toys. For one, they have a lot of bright coloring and detail. They are also quite heavy and have numerous metal components rather than 100% plastic. The wheels spin very well and their natural weight helps them roll along quickly. The bags are marked with a code number on the back which determines what train is inside, so you can actually look up which train codes you are looking for and check the packages in the store to ensure you get the one you want. Doing this, we prevented ourselves from running in to duplicates. This video did not do very well though, and I think a more colorful background or dynamic setting would have helped captivate the little kid audience we were looking for on this one.
