In issue #791 of Thomas & Friends, Thomas takes a special trip to the capital.
Egmont says: “Thomas fans will love the amazing seven-piece playset that accompanies the magazine, which includes Thomas, Percy and a carriage. Readers can explore London alongside Thomas with the London Eye, bus, phone box and Fat Controller figurines also included in the playset. There’s heaps of fun for little ones inside the magazine too, with over 40 stickers, a reward chart, posters, puzzles and plenty more to help develop early years skills.”
Egmont have released three special editions of Thomas & Friends magazine this year. Thomas fans received an official mini train and story book in issue #781, and this year’s summer special included an anniversary train set.
32 years after launch, Thomas & Friends magazine remains a top 20 title in the children’s market and is the oldest single character magazine in the UK. This performance is testament to the strength of the Thomas & Friends brand, as well as the successful publishing partnership between Egmont Magazines and Mattel, says Egmont.
Kiran Vara, Publisher of Thomas & Friends magazine said: “We’ve loved celebrating with Thomas and Mattel through all three anniversary issues of this evergreen magazine but Thomas’ trip to London is really something special! We know that Thomas fans will love exploring the city with Thomas and enjoy all the exciting activities inside the magazine.”
