I was all set to take advantage of the 40% off deal on Thomas but I don't know which Harold to purchase.

Input?

TIA!

DS likes the plain wooden one between that and the take along thomas we have.

the take along is a little smaller and is metal, kind of like a matchbox car. it's actually sized more in line with the wooden thomas engines. the wooden one (and i would assume the magnet one you listed) are all painted wood except for the rotor up top (and maybe the skids are plastic too, i don't have it in front of me) and are slightly larger - DS likes the larger size tho - more harold to love ;). judging by the pic and the light and sound engine my husband bought, it's probably more metal than wood?

hth, lori

I was going to say get the basic wooden one but I've never seen the one with the magnet. I think I'd be inclined to get that one. DS has a Playmobil helicopter with a rope you can raise and lower and DS loves that feature (actually all the little boys who see it love that). So, I think lowering the magnet to pick up cargo would be a huge hit. Harold could help Cranky and do stuff on his own.
