The HiT Toy Company playsets are difficult to beat, I wasn't a fan of the all blue Thomas Daring Drop. Said to be the tallest playset but it actually wasn't at that time.
Im glad young me bought the misty island set and the blue mountain quarry set, i still do have all the track and other pieces but they're all scattered around my room
I had both sets (my Misty Island one wasn't the deluxe one tho, it was the shake shake bridge one), although I lost almost every track besides the special parts.
You have to admit tho, getting that absolute GIANT Cranky was amazing, maybe not the most "exciting or complex" set, but having a giant cranky was awesome.
I sadly no longer have it- But I was one of the lucky ones who had an Action Canyon, received it for christmas like 12-11ish years ago. It was the only set I ever revived in box, brand new from what I remember. I went absolutely bonkers christmas morning when I got it, even getting the stanley pack as a side gift. Again, I no longer have it, but I was able to keep the Stanley and Thomas I received all those years ago. Good memories.
I had the shake shake bridge and Great discovery sets, but I had to give them to my cousin and throw away part of the Great Discovery set along with a Tomy set I had sadly, which was only because my parents had bought me he Blue Mountain Mystery set which I cried for and said that I had to get rid of my old tracks. I still have another set that came with Arthur and Thomas from my neighbor grandson. I still have both that and Blue Mountain in a tote in my closet, I still regret giving away and throwing out my other sets, including the stem works I had got from that same neighbor. That same cousin also let his parent throw out his old Thomas sets including the pieces I gave him while I was there with them and couldn’t doing anything about it cause I was 15 or 16 at the time, but I’m 17 now with a small love for Thomas still.🙂
Seeing this video made me so happy. When I saw the Misty Island and Great Discovery sets I had a rush of nostalgia from when I was little and asking my parents for the sets. Felt good remembering those days.
I always wanted the afton canyon as a kid, i remember asking my mom for it all the time when I was 7 or 8, I’ve since gotten out of track-master in favor of other stuff but I might get it one day just to full fill a childhood dream
I knew action Canyon was going to be number one I actually had that set when I was a lot younger it’s a shame I don’t have it anymore I still remember all the good times I had fun with it
I had the action canyon set, the RC Thomas at Tidmouth sheds set and the shake shake bridge set. The first two sets adored by how revolutionary they were as a whole.
Action Canyon is definitely an S tier but the Knapford Station Celebration Set, Sodor Friends Road and Rail Set and Super Sodor Adventure Set definitely deserve honorable mentions.
Man oh man, when I saw that you put Action canyon at Number 1, I was so happy, I remember getting it for Christmas as a kid and I was so happy. That was the very first Trackmaster set I had ever gotten as a kid and I still have it today, every engine I have works with it (except Tomy Oliver). Thanks so much for the nostalgia man. :)
I think I actually had all of these except for Action Canyon. The memories of sitting down with my Trackmasters for hours on end as a kid will probably stay with me forever…
Mate, I've ALWAYS wanted Action Canyon since I was a kid, that commercial that I saw online, had always caught my attention! I still intend to get it some day in, because this set was awesome! As for the rest of the set in this list, I still want to get those sets, especially Tidmoth Shed, the Misty island set, and Thomas's daring drop, are still on my wish list, but Action Canyon has and still is one of my most wanted set, and I don't mine if I find the original, the snow theme or even both, this set was just so awesome
this was really interesting, i had very few track master sets only 2 iirc, one i forget the title of, the other was from thomas and bertie’s race back in season 1. i admit trackmaster is interesting however my preference has always been the wooden train sets.
I’m very happy to have the troublesome traps set just minus the James, but I’m confused why Percy wasn’t in the set as he was the “scardie engine”. Also why didnt Rheneas come in the thomas’ daring drop as he was the one who went on the breaking bridge in blue mountain, for your next video you should do a top five trackmaster packs also great video as always!
The Thomas falling waterset was one of my favorite sets unfortunately I don't have it anymore but I do one day hope I can get another one and this was a really great video
I actually have a Action Canyon set. Funny story with this set when I was younger. I covered it with 1 or 2 big containers of Nesquick power to make “snow”. My mom was angry but I didn’t get in to much trouble because she was to busy laughing her butt off. To this day some years later you can tell which trains I played with that day because I’ve never been able to fully clean them.
Just heard your Voice in tank engine JonJons Gauge 1 thomas video! Nice to hear you working with other smaller creators and giving them a hand t get noticed!
Excellent video as always. I actually own every one of these sets... sorta. I only actually got the Shake Shake Bridge set on its own, but to me, that kinda counts. And I agree about the Troublesome Traps set, as back then even, I found it far more enjoyable and less gimmicky than later sets. Plus, my version of Thomas' Daring Drop came with a truck, boulders, a zip line, and stone cutting station, so there was an even better version of that set than what was shown here. Just goes to show how awesome Thomas merch was.
I had the action canyon set when I was a kid don't have it anymore sadly, but the nostalgia from seeing it again. I collect HO / N scale model trains now and almost all the current thomas models from bachmann, but action canyon will always have a special place in my heart
We bought a HUGE bundle of track of off ebay (the track from back when it was blue) and it had a huge bridge, a really long double track section that went round all of it and a small little engine shed bit
Always remembered loving seeing the Action Canyon commercial when watching The Great Discovery. From one of THE best specials, I expected nothing less.
To this day I still have action canyon in my possession, it may miss a few pieces, but most of it is still together. I pull it out every few years or so and just, relive the sweet childhood memories
My first ever track master set was #1 and I’m glad it was, my second was shake shake bridge and last was #2. Sadly I only have #2 left in my closet still, but I still have the engines that went with them mostly being Thomas lol, but I also have this other set that came with Arthur from my neighbors grandson.
I'm happy to say that I have an almost complete version of the action canyon playset, it was so much fun, and I loved it! You knew you were cool if you had that as a kid
I was honestly a Take Along kid but I still had like 3 of these sets and man they were so fun. I remember even if I didn’t have the entire action canyon set up I would use the mountain part as Gordon’s hill lmao
When I was 5 I got Action-Canyon as a Christmas Present,and boy was it absolutely pique trackmaster. Something about it was just God Tier,it really sucks that nothing has ever come even close to it's greatness
Also the blue mountain set I had was different, it had a zip line that carried a boulders to a little station that a stopper at the end so you could put the boulders back in Thomas’s cart
My list of my favorite thomas toys 1: Trackmaster 2: minis 3: wooden railway/wood 4: trackmaster push along but the all engines go looks 5: plarail/プラレール 6: tomica/トミカ 7: hornby 8: lionel 9: tomix/トミックス 10: take n play and a little bit of take along 11: lego Duplo/mega Blocks 12: thomas toys of chinese ver 13: the rc Thomases 14: board games 15: plush/soft toys 16 is the McDonald's and the diablocks so that's it
What about making a list of worst/best Trackmaster Thomas *destinations* or *accessories* next? Like, I’m sure you could find quite a decent amount of them which either were essential for a proper layout, or even some that just didn’t make any sense
the action canyon set was probably the only trackmaster set i had growing up, but my lord did it entertain me for hours, days, even months. i was a huge thomas fanatic as a child and thomas is what introduced me to real-world steam locomotives. loved this play set as a kiddo and im in the process of trying to dig it up again the bias is valid B) at least to me
As somebody not interested in Thomas but interested in other Children's Toys (Lego, My Little Pony, Action Figures), I wanna say that you make very cool videos.
I had all of the Top 4 Classic Trackmaster sets as a kid, and still do to this day. My two favorites were Action Canyon and the Tidmouth Sheds set. The former was just really fun with how many different ways you could send the engines and the fun spiral, and the latter was just really nice to have an integral location from the show. I similarly got excited when I finally got Knapford Station
I don’t have the action canyon set anymore but I still remember getting it for Christmas in 2010 with the Thomas and the jet engine DVD, my 6 year old self was so happy!! I miss my childhood man!
i am by no means a member of the thomas fandom. i grew out of it long ago, in favor of video games like super mario and pokemon. i can remember getting the misty island deluxe set for christmas when i was... roughly seven? seeing it complete again makes me feel nostalgic. i remember getting the set for christmas and having a blast with it. seeing that grand canyon ad brought tears to my eyes as well. i remember going onto my dead-beat windows xp and watching trailers for the toys as a kid. that one mustve been in one of the dvds i had. currently, i am in college and do not have most of the trains i used to own. hell, i barely have much thought of anything thomas, but thank you for reminding me of a simplier time in my life. i rarely like videos these days, but you deserve one.
I actually got the Misty Island DX set but seperately ( M.I and Shake Shake Bridge.) So no Bash & Dash. But still, i spent HUNDREDS OF HOURS just playing with it. Also, IMO Tidmouth is the best. I prefer more casual sets, that make it feel like a real railway! But yeah, they're all really good!
@TrainBoy My top 1 set would be the Hero of the Rails steam works set because of that rotating thing it had. I loved it so much because I had never seen anything like it before! Sadly I never got it but I did have lots of trackmasters. *Sadly my mom sold them all.. But I am rebuilding my collection with Plarail and some trackmasters!*
Rc flip face Thomas was my dream Thomas set as a kid, so much so I would have conversations about it with my imaginary friend. I regret passing up on it when I saw it at a second hand market a couple years ago
i remember having the action canyon set. i think i still have all the pieces, but i’m pretty sure the thomas stopped working because of all the slam-into-another-train accidents i would always do with it. i’m pretty sure i had the 2011 version, because it was a hit era looking thomas. i don’t remember too much about it, (probably because i was only 3-5 when i got it) but nonetheless, it was a really fun set that i played with for hours when i was a toddler. very deserving of the number 1 spot on this list.
I had 12 different sets that being the blue TOMY tracks, classic tracks, and trackmaster tracks. I put them all together and it was the experience of the biggest set! The way I put the sets together was that there is a custom piece that let you connect blue tracks, original tracks, and trackmaster tracks! I love the sets that release over the years.
I'm also huge trackmaster fan, I remember having so much fun playing with the action canyon set, even when I rebuilt it years after it was put away in storage. I wish I could bring it out for a bit more but most of the pieces are at one of my family member's place who lives really far from me.
When I was a lot younger, I had a variant of the MIR stuff that had the bridge, and I vividly remember using the regular Misty Island track to make ‘worn out’ sidings and track, especially if I tried remaking sets from Hero of the Rails
You should do tomy next! Lemme tell you the plarail search and rescue set is AMAZING! it has aback and go Thomas which goes forwards and backwards. It has a nice figure 8 track, a nice little building, and Harold. I used to have that set, I broke the Thomas though, I'm very sad about that
Dude the bridge was the fucking TITS when it released. I was a lil kid when it released, and was super fucking into Thomas. I spent literally hours playing it, going through every possible route with all my Trackmaster trains.
I'm not sure what is was called but there was this huge set i had that came with Thomas, Annie and Clarabel Percy with some trucks And one of the pack members. Also a level crossing with lots of road. If you can find it please mention it in your vid 👍
Thomas with Annie and Clarabel, Percy with some trucks, a level crossing, lots of road, and I don’t think any of the Pack members are in the set due to them not being made around that time. It does feature Elizabeth, who is not a member of the pack, neither are Trevor and Caroline. Terence is not a member of the pack, either.
I have the Timouth sheds set and pieces of the Misty Island. I remember watching The Great Discovery DVD and seeing the add for The Action Canyon and going”wow, that looks amazing. Where can I get that?”
I just was clicking on random videos I found this video man I remember having a few trackmaster sets where a set that had a rail that was only one rail or something but it gave me memories of the set I do still have it but it is in a black box in my closet.
When I tell you, action canyon was the shit (excuse me for the language but like, my favorite set of all time ;_;), I mean it. The Action canyon set made me so extremely happy as a kid-
I had all but the number one spot and I wanted it so much when I was a kid. Tomas and friends always will hold a place in my heart because it was my childhood and I can’t stand the abomination it has become there is truly no coming back for it and it hurts a bit but I will always cherish those times as a child and still am connected to the fan base and show even now.
There is a second version of the Thomas' Daring Drop set - the Risky Rails Bridge Drop set. It's basically the same thing except when Thomas goes to the top he can stop, drop a boulder into a chute which then goes to Merrick and from there it's sent in a crate on a string back down. I think that deserves to be the second best set. ruclips.net/video/UNN-cG4V0pk/видео.html
I actually have an alternate version of the Thomas’s Daring Drop set. It’s called the Risky Rails Bridge Drop. It’s the same layout as Thomas’s Daring Drop except it lacks the yellow gate and has a red boulder car, two boulders, a drop off and loading station, and a track and zip line for the boulders that attached to Merick.
I remember the day I got the Great Discovery DVD, I was met by the fisher price commercial and then just the best commercial for a Thomas merchandise product ever made. I always asked for it but never got it, and now I feel like I need it
I absolutely loved that Action Canyon set growing up! I remember being I getting this when it first came out and my dad always had to help me put it back together 😂. Good times.
I remember watching the “Great Discovery” DVD when I was little and they would always show the action canyon commercial and I wanted it so badly back then.
I have the Misty Island Deluxe set, and I would clean out my whole living room (even tho it didn't take up that much room) just to set it up. It was and still is my favorite Trackmasters set!
I actually still have that last set with all the pieces, my mom wanted me to get rid of it in a garage sale but I told her Ill save it either to sell it for a decent amount online or save it for my children
the ONLY thing i hated about the RC Thomas, is they never made a version where the attached car was Annie. and that made me mad. Like how TF you supposed to have the most Iconic Thomas Consist now without Annie and Clarabelle.
The 2010 Busy Day On Sodor set should've been on here. I loved it so much as a kid, and it was where most of my Trackmaster pieces came from. I adored it so much, I even made my mom cut of the back of the box and hang it in my room as a "poster" lol
Great list but I thought you would have the other version of the bridge drop set where Thomas has a boulder that rolls down to Marian and then zip lines down to this station where you can put it back on Thomas
I would have if the boulder function worked better; I think THATS the one I actually had and it ended up rolling off of the set more than anything 😭🤣 Thank you so much man!!
The HiT Toy Company playsets are difficult to beat, I wasn't a fan of the all blue Thomas Daring Drop. Said to be the tallest playset but it actually wasn't at that time.
Sounds like a major bias
LEO LETS GOOO
I am a big fan

@@dogemaster-hm2ce same here except for the second set but I had shake shake bridge separately
@@dogemaster-hm2ce I have the Shake-Shake Bridge set as well as that Zipline one.
One of my friends had the misty island set while I had the blue mountain quarry set
You have to admit tho, getting that absolute GIANT Cranky was amazing, maybe not the most "exciting or complex" set, but having a giant cranky was awesome.
BEST CRANKY MERCH EVER NO COMPETITION
i had it and i was scared of cranky so embarrassed now but the set was so good and the movie was good
GIANT CRANKY IS LEGENDARY
Actually I had a giant cranky and my cousin got hurt with it but other then that the giant cranky was awesome
I have one! It’s so cool
I find it nostalgic that the top 3 are sets I had as a kid and man I loved these sets when I was little

I actually had #3 as my very first Trackmaster Thomas set. It was very innovative for me and I wish I still kept it to this day.
I sadly no longer have it- But I was one of the lucky ones who had an Action Canyon, received it for christmas like 12-11ish years ago. It was the only set I ever revived in box, brand new from what I remember. I went absolutely bonkers christmas morning when I got it, even getting the stanley pack as a side gift. Again, I no longer have it, but I was able to keep the Stanley and Thomas I received all those years ago. Good memories.
I had the shake shake bridge and Great discovery sets, but I had to give them to my cousin and throw away part of the Great Discovery set along with a Tomy set I had sadly, which was only because my parents had bought me he Blue Mountain Mystery set which I cried for and said that I had to get rid of my old tracks.

More like a Chad Banger
Brings back so many memories. I remember watching the commercial on my Great Discovery DVD when I was 4 and getting absolutely lost in the moment.
Action Canyon is definitely an S tier but the Knapford Station Celebration Set, Sodor Friends Road and Rail Set and Super Sodor Adventure Set definitely deserve honorable mentions.

How much did you pay for the tomy Oliver
@@jamestheshinyredengine4350 Uhh... I think around 110 US Dollars. He came in a lot with 2 red branchline coaches and a Tomy Duck.
Damn that expensive, but the price is kinda expected
@@jamestheshinyredengine4350 Yeah, I was expecting it to be like that, but it was worth it since I got Duck and some new coaches. :)

I owned all of them except for Misty Island deluxe and the timber sheds one unfortunately I lost the action canyon bridge

I had 12 different sets that being the blue TOMY tracks, classic tracks, and trackmaster tracks. I put them all together and it was the experience of the biggest set! The way I put the sets together was that there is a custom piece that let you connect blue tracks, original tracks, and trackmaster tracks! I love the sets that release over the years.
I used to have Action Canyon and it was a really awesome set. I loved it.
I'm also huge trackmaster fan, I remember having so much fun playing with the action canyon set, even when I rebuilt it years after it was put away in storage. I wish I could bring it out for a bit more but most of the pieces are at one of my family member's place who lives really far from me.
I’m planning to get the Action Canyon Set sometime in the future because it looks so cool! 😎
God, the nostalgia emanating from this video makes me so happy, yet so sad. Trackmaster was my childhood and most of these were my favorite sets.
I had all there classic Trackmaster sets on this list. I still have few pieces from them.
Action Canyon was my personal favorite set, I ran that set for HOURS, and loved connecting it to this small one-engine shed set, I loved it to pieces
When I was a lot younger, I had a variant of the MIR stuff that had the bridge, and I vividly remember using the regular Misty Island track to make ‘worn out’ sidings and track, especially if I tried remaking sets from Hero of the Rails
You should do tomy next! Lemme tell you the plarail search and rescue set is AMAZING! it has aback and go Thomas which goes forwards and backwards. It has a nice figure 8 track, a nice little building, and Harold.
I used to have that set, I broke the Thomas though, I'm very sad about that
Dude the bridge was the fucking TITS when it released. I was a lil kid when it released, and was super fucking into Thomas. I spent literally hours playing it, going through every possible route with all my Trackmaster trains.
I'm not sure what is was called but there was this huge set i had that came with Thomas, Annie and Clarabel
Percy with some trucks
And one of the pack members. Also a level crossing with lots of road. If you can find it please mention it in your vid 👍
Thomas with Annie and Clarabel, Percy with some trucks, a level crossing, lots of road, and I don’t think any of the Pack members are in the set due to them not being made around that time. It does feature Elizabeth, who is not a member of the pack, neither are Trevor and Caroline. Terence is not a member of the pack, either.
@@stevennorthrup5790 what's the set called?
@@RufusBoi2008 Its the ultimate set, from tomy
@@cbe6909 huh weird didn't know that set didn't existed. I'm sure it was trackmaster. Imma guess they just did a ctrl-c ctrl-v on that one
I actually do had action Canyon set when I got from Chirstmas in 2020
That action canyon ad just reactivated my childhood memories and now i’m overwhelmed
lord have mercy
I got the Action Canyon set for the Christmas of 2008. Best christmas of my life to be honest.
#1 was something I always wanted as the movie I thought was amazing and so much so I still recognize the kids screaming
Misty island and rescue set it was awesome I had that when I was 7
I have the Timouth sheds set and pieces of the Misty Island. I remember watching The Great Discovery DVD and seeing the add for The Action Canyon and going”wow, that looks amazing. Where can I get that?”
I just was clicking on random videos I found this video man I remember having a few trackmaster sets where a set that had a rail that was only one rail or something but it gave me memories of the set I do still have it but it is in a black box in my closet.
When I tell you, action canyon was the shit (excuse me for the language but like, my favorite set of all time ;_;), I mean it. The Action canyon set made me so extremely happy as a kid-
I had all but the number one spot and I wanted it so much when I was a kid. Tomas and friends always will hold a place in my heart because it was my childhood and I can’t stand the abomination it has become there is truly no coming back for it and it hurts a bit but I will always cherish those times as a child and still am connected to the fan base and show even now.
I had every one of these and they are so nostalgic
There is a second version of the Thomas' Daring Drop set - the Risky Rails Bridge Drop set. It's basically the same thing except when Thomas goes to the top he can stop, drop a boulder into a chute which then goes to Merrick and from there it's sent in a crate on a string back down. I think that deserves to be the second best set. ruclips.net/video/UNN-cG4V0pk/видео.html
ah, thats the variant i actually own lmao
I actually have an alternate version of the Thomas’s Daring Drop set. It’s called the Risky Rails Bridge Drop. It’s the same layout as Thomas’s Daring Drop except it lacks the yellow gate and has a red boulder car, two boulders, a drop off and loading station, and a track and zip line for the boulders that attached to Merick.
The set to have when I was growing up was the Tomy Thomas Big Set. It was my first set and the one I built every layout off of
5:31 This set. This freaking set man.
I never owned this set but DANG IT THIS IS AMAZING!
I remember the day I got the Great Discovery DVD, I was met by the fisher price commercial and then just the best commercial for a Thomas merchandise product ever made. I always asked for it but never got it, and now I feel like I need it
I absolutely loved that Action Canyon set growing up! I remember being I getting this when it first came out and my dad always had to help me put it back together 😂. Good times.
I remember watching the “Great Discovery” DVD when I was little and they would always show the action canyon commercial and I wanted it so badly back then.
These trackmaster sets are awesome (especially action canyon) too bad we don’t get sets like these anymore
Its too bad that the trains got redesigned into the new version that cartoon network made 🙁
@@ARCTICN0VA same
I have the Misty Island Deluxe set, and I would clean out my whole living room (even tho it didn't take up that much room) just to set it up. It was and still is my favorite Trackmasters set!
I remember playing with set #1 a lot as a little kid. The great memories…
I unfortunately never had action Canyon… I've always wanted it growing up
I like the Trackmaster sets where it’s big and has unique moving features like the Misty Island Rescue set and the Action Canyon set!
I actually still have that last set with all the pieces, my mom wanted me to get rid of it in a garage sale but I told her Ill save it either to sell it for a decent amount online or save it for my children
the ONLY thing i hated about the RC Thomas, is they never made a version where the attached car was Annie. and that made me mad. Like how TF you supposed to have the most Iconic Thomas Consist now without Annie and Clarabelle.
The 2010 Busy Day On Sodor set should've been on here. I loved it so much as a kid, and it was where most of my Trackmaster pieces came from. I adored it so much, I even made my mom cut of the back of the box and hang it in my room as a "poster" lol
Great list but I thought you would have the other version of the bridge drop set where Thomas has a boulder that rolls down to Marian and then zip lines down to this station where you can put it back on Thomas
I would have if the boulder function worked better; I think THATS the one I actually had and it ended up rolling off of the set more than anything 😭🤣
Thank you so much man!!
Do you mean Merrick
