That's okay--from your name I suspected that you were from the Continent, but I
confess that this really baffles me. Judging from the theme song and the names
in the credits, Thomas originates in the UK, which I believe *is* part of
Europe, right? So why wouldn't you guys get the LEGO stuff?
I know, I know--licensing deals etc. etc. etc.
Still, it's a bummer for you.
Dave!

| (...) Says the guy with a German surname... ;) (...) There's a theme song? In the UK there's a tune, but no song. But does Thomas the Tank Engine feature much in non-English-speaking countries? Jason Railton (20 years ago, 12-May-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.duplo)
