  • When Rusty gets fed up with Fred's illnesses, Atlas tells a cautionary tale. After all, he's seen a similar situation before and it didn't end well.
    Thank-you to the voice actors, modelmakers and others involved for keeping this video under wraps. I appreciate it.

    Okay folks, I'm going to make one thing clear for those unfamiliar with the intro to this episode. It is from a series called TUGS, as is the character of Ten Cents. It is not a copy of the one done by Victor Tanzig. His first video with that intro came out a year AFTER this one. He's probably done his as a TUGS tribute, too.

    It was a really bold move to incorporate TUGS in, but you pulled it off extremely well :) Nothing about the tugs' inclusion felt forced or jarring, mentions of other characters like Zorran felt natural, and above all the interactions were great :)
    Must say also it's great to finally see what your model making skills did with Ten Cents, he looks incredibly detailed, and the lovely water effects in TANE made the visuals all the better.

    • @Damocles178
      @Damocles178 8 лет назад +12

      Amen. Crossovers can be tricky to get right. Tugs had a different writing style from TTTE so it really is something to see how well this turned out. I would ordinarily see them as separate universes but after seeing how well the characters interact without feeling out of place; it's like they were in the same universe all along. :)

Some episodes have been hit or miss at times but this has been a truly outstanding series that I have followed for at least 5 years and I have no regrets for doing so. This was certainly a very unexpected outing; Tugs & the RWS together? Well there was enough creative backbone to make it work. Great voice actors too; really brought it to life. On another note the water looks absolutely splendid with Trainz: A New Era. It was a great idea to switch to it.

    So at 8:35 Ten Cents is talking about the Z-Stacks and is doing so in past tense. Does that mean this takes place after the one season of TUGS? It would make sense considering TUGS takes place in the 20s while Thomas is in the 40s at the earliest. Also does this mean that Captain Star sold Ten Cents and sent him across the ocean from Bigg City Port to Sodor?

    • @russellgxy2905
      @russellgxy2905 8 лет назад +10

      Atlas' flashback takes place in 1951, three decades after the setting of TUGS' original airing. So yes, I'd assume that Ten Cents had been sold from the Star Tugs. Nice to see his Star flag replaced with the new canon Sodor flag. I didn't even notice until the end credits!

      Hey - Atlas' VA here, this story takes place mainly in 1951 whereas the TUGS series takes place in the 1920's. As you can hear Drollan mentioning, Ten Cents arrived on Sodor during World War 2, but I shant say much more.

    Glad to see Duncan still had his Yellow paintjob in the beginning of the episode.
