The LEGO® Thomas Starter Set 5544, released in June 2008, is a delightful addition to the Duplo theme, specifically the Thomas the Tank Engine subtheme. This set includes 82 pieces and offers a whole fun adventure for Thomas! Children can help Thomas as he carries coal around the island of Sodor, passing Callan Station, a windmill, and a signal station along the way. The set features safe, colorful, and durable LEGO® DUPLO® pieces that are perfect for little hands. It includes Thomas, Sir Topham Hatt, tracks, station, water tower, and much more. Kids can turn the handle on the windmill to make it spin, spin the signal to green or red, and tilt the coal into the carts. The full track measures 28" x 23" (72cm x 58cm), and with carts attached, Thomas measures over 11" (28cm) long. This set has received several awards, including the National Parenting Center's Seal of Approval, Family Fun's Holiday List 2008, Oppenheim Toy Portfolio's Blue Chip Award, and TimetoPlayMag.com's Holiday List. LEGO 5544 is a must-have for any young Thomas the Tank Engine fan. With its vibrant colours, durable pieces, and interactive features, this set provides hours of imaginative play. The set has been designed to be safe and suitable for little hands, making it the perfect introduction to the world of LEGO® DUPLO®.
