Down the mine pilot has been found

So if you were to ask or wonder if any footage of down the mine pilot is around well good news that it has been found by mattel archives and now that the footage is real and will be release today at 6 pm in UK time. I never thought it'll existed but now that it's here I get to see the test pilot and maybe eee some breakdowns between the episode and the pilot. 



Wow gordon's original model looks way different than the finish model and now that we're getting to see what it was like on pilot even his face is way different.

Found a childhood show of mine that i forgot


So dear reader i found a beloved show that i use to watch as a kid which was Paz show that i recall watching and was trying to figure out what that show was at the time and ask couple of my friends if they know it or not. It's one of those obseure shows that you either remember or don't remember as kids but i honestly remember that show around six years old i believe and wow i wish i done my research better than before while i was doing my childhood show posts and man since i'm 25 getting old. 

Honestly i never forgot the show and really wanted to remember it's name as well and since i found it and paz and his mom reminds me of mine too when my mom and i would watch this show. As of writing this down i can't help but went down in tears of this i don't know why.

Happy 40th Anniversary to Thomas the Tank Engine

Today marks 40 years of Thomas the Tank Engine and friends how it all started in 1984 October 9 it's when it got bigger and air on tv. I can remember watching the show as a kid it was season 5 Make Someone Happy on VHS and later on Seasons 1-7 I was around 2-7 years old at that time and watch later seasons and specials as a kid. Later on I would still watch Thomas but gotten older and later to my teenage years and adult years. Still to this very day I watch thomas and share it to my nieces and nephews and still enjoy it. 

Thomas holds a special place in my heart mainly the stories that wilbert awdry had written to his son and would go on for generation and generation. I enjoy the content that other thomas creators do with the series either on model or Trainz simulation and I would try it out on Trainz and sometimes I would try and write thomas stories either as a kid or teenager. I remember playing with the toys, whether Tomy Wooden Railway or Take along, and still have them. Before I would reimagine them and play with the toys and I want to shared with you all of what I've kept with me. 





These are the survivor vhs and DVDs I have and some of them are on DVD. I got Thomas and the Magic Railroad and great discovery that one is among my favorite and TATMRR I use to watch it in kindergarten and have fund memories. 


I have this photo of Bachmann thomas model and haven't even bothered to try it out since 2014/15 and maybe stop working. I try out the model back in 2011 and it was a fun experience as a kid. 


Down below is Trainz rws Thomas from Wildnorwester and wanted to try out Trainz on a computer device one day I'll get one. 


I'm sure we all have our own stories of Thomas and how the franchise is going through but what I want to say is that children's media should be cherished and learned and what David britt and wilbert did before and back they didn't sugar code it they care and why it's important for us and the next generation to care for as seen by a butterfly effect and they wrote stories to entertain us and world build the story around Thomas and friends wilbert who said this before. "You got to remember who your writing for. You're not merely writing for children you're writing for the unfortunate people who've got to read the stories over and over and over again" Wilbert will always be an inspiration of mine and the books will always be something I'll never forget about. 

The fandom I am happy with and seeing how we've been part of and grown even meet in person and go to heritage railways which is a wish I want to make and perhaps one day go to. 

Thank you Wilbert David Christopher and Britt for these stories you created and adapted into. These episodes always help me before when I was sick or having a hard time. 

Thank you Thomas for being my friend.

Happy 40th Anniversary to Thomas and friends.

Who Remembers X-Men Evolution

It's been interesting in these past 20 or so years ago remembering a video game movie or show that we grow up and play with as kids or had these nostalgia memories in the past if it's good or something bad. 

But there's been this show that i recall seeing back in 2009 which was nearly 10 years at the time after it's the conclusion and it was X-Men Evolution airing back in Augest 20 2000 right around X-Men film. I think there are those who remember watching it at the time or those who either seen or heard of it before seeing it in the 2010s mostly me. I did watch the show when i was 9-14 years old and later on 15 and 16 years old. I haven't yet watch it but looking back at the show it was a good show and one of the best x men shows to see back than. It is on dvd and on Disney plus the ending to the show was pretty great and emotional too and having the characters the x men some of them as teenagers is an interesting take on it. Wow looking back at these shows that 20 makes me sad but happy.
