"KILL ME!!!"
— Thomas when he came to life.

Main

Thomas is the toy of a blue tank engine who lives at a big station on the Island of Sodor. He's a cheeky little engine, with six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boiler, and a short stumpy dome. Junior has a strong affection for him. He is one of the main characters in British Railway Series books by the Rev. W. Awdry and his son Christopher and became the most popular and famous character in the series and is the main character and titular protagonist of the accompanying television series Thomas & Friends, which the toy Junior had is based on. Junior has been consistently seen with a Thomas from the Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway toyline. Usually, the Thomas used is the 2013 Wooden Railway Thomas, but in Chicken!, the late 2004 Wooden Railway Thomas is used. He is a recurring character in the SML Movies.

History[]

Thomas is a toy tank engine that belongs to Bowser Junior, which is Junior's favorite toy and does not allow anyone else to play with it when playing trains. He is always Thomas and makes whoever playing trains with him be Salty (Which Junior calls him "The Ugly Red One").

Trivia[]

  • Thomas is based on the character from the British bestselling children’s book series The Railway Series by the Rev. W Awdry.
    • Which was later adapted into the even more popular television series Thomas & Friends created by Britt Allcroft, and a reboot called All Engines Go by Mattel, which got some criticism from fans. (the first time he was seen as an All Engines Go toy was in Jeffy's YES Day! as the launch & loop maintenance set.)
  • Thomas’ show could be Bowser Junior’s favorite show after Doofy the Dragon.
  • Thomas has spoken several times, in "Bowser Junior's 6th Birthday" where he says "Today is your birthday, Junior!", "Bowser Junior's 7th Birthday!" where he said "Gooo... Hitler!", "Bowser Junior's Breakfast", where he says "I touch you, while you sleep." and "Hungry for yo mom's (censored), "Awaken" and "Cody's Curse!" when he yells “KILL ME!” repeatedly, due to an error in Cody’s machine and "Everything The Rapper!", due to a carbon monoxide leak.
  • Junior has never watched the show onscreen, It’s possible that he knows the show or he forgot about it.
  • Alongside the Picture from Bowser Junior Goes To The Fair!, Thomas survived the house fire in Bowser's House Fire!, because Junior ran and took him as quickly as possible. He later gets burned by Brooklyn T. Guy (Does Bad Things Guy) in Bowser Junior Goes To Military School! Part 2.
  • However, later after "Bowser Junior Goes To Military School! Part 2", after Bowser and Bowser Junior have a heartfelt talk about their relationship, Thomas later returned in "The New House!". It is possible it came with it, due to the house already having a lot of things.
  • Along with Ken, Thomas is an inanimate object character.
    • Ironically, Mattel owns both franchises they originate from.
  • Bowser Junior has considered giving up Thomas multiple times, showing that he doesn't care too much about Thomas, although in some videos he really does.
  • The Engine that Junior refers to an "Ugly Red One" is Actually Salty the Dockside Diesel.
  • Despite how important Thomas has been to Junior in multiple episodes, in recent episodes he is not seen playing with Thomas much, meaning he has probably outgrown Thomas, although he still shows love for him in some videos.
  • The puppet for him was originally a plush until they made his mouth out of a Melissa & Doug puppet.
  • Junior always has Thomas saying "I think I can!" which is actually the mantra of the Little Engine from The Little Engine That Could by Watty Piper.
