Mr Squishy has been enjoying a range of new kiddie programmes recently and one of these is Thomas the Tank Engine. He is now even making the choooo choooo sound which I must say is super adorable! Bladez Toyz contacted us and asked if we would like to review their RC (radio control) inflatables and would you believe they had a Thomas the Tank Engine RC inflatable, what luck. Bladez Toyz has a lovely range of inflatable toys for children with some of the most popular characters including Peppa Pig, R2-D2, Lightning McQueen, Olaf, Nemo and many more. The inflatables range in price so you can find something for every budget. Sizes of items also range from around 26cm to approx. 75cm
Thomas arrived and of course everyone was very excited and Mr Squishy decided he wanted to take charge of this review and show the girls how it was done.
Mummy of helped with the inflating of Thomas and putting the batteries in. Batteries are not included. Set up is very quick and simple which was useful especially as there were 3 very excited munchkins waiting to play with their new toy!
Radio Control Inflatable Thomas The Tank Engine
Within the box was the instruction manual, radio control handset and inflatable Thomas. This is suitable for ages 2 and over and can be used indoors and outdoors. There are built in sound effects although this option can be turned off and you can still play with Thomas without the sound although the little ones might tell you off firstly for playing with their toy and secondly turning the sound off. It’s great fun seeing Thomas whizzing around the room and it’s a simple toy to play with. The radio control handset is very easy to use and all the children loved watching him shooting around the room.
Mr Squishy did get a little possessive over Thomas. We decided to try and teach him that sharing is caring! It’s a work in progress lol.
Although photos are great for you to get a feel for a toy seeing it in action and the honesty of a child’s expressions can show you far more so we have made a fun little video for you to watch and hear Thomas and the children in action.
What Did We Think?
The children as you can see loved Thomas and had great fun playing with him. From a parent’s perspective, I must say it is really lovely watching the children having fun. They even let me play too!!! The toy is also pretty robust. Mr Squishy has squeezed the life out of poor Thomas and he still hasn’t needed reinflating yet. He has also thrown the radio control device around the place being a pretty heavy-handed child and miraculously it has survived – it’s Mr Squishy proof!
We loved the Radio Control Inflatable Thomas The Tank Engine. It’s a great toy for toddlers. Would you buy this sort of toy?

We were sent this lovely toy to test, and enjoy. Not only has it survived, like the Duracell bunny is still going strong. All opinions are my own. Now as I haven’t said this for a while I must remind you all that ONLY items we like get a feature on my blog hence the name ‘Fab Finds’. We loved this toy and would highly recommend it.

Ah!! Mr. Thomas brings back a lot of memory. It is till date one of my favourite character.
It is a great toy, all mine love Thomas even my girls.
This product looks great – it actually moves quite fast – especially when turning…..and your kids are adorable in the video! I like the fact that it’s squishy and I’d be less like to get sort ankles with the kids driving it into me! Like your son did with you! He liked it so much he didn’t want you to have it – so sweet! My friends with young kids would like this too.
It’s a great toy for little ones and as you can see mine love it.
This toy would be perfect for my wee boy, if only we had a bit more space! Hopefully we will be moving to a bigger house soon, so I’m looking forward to getting more of his toys out for him to play with! 🙂
He would love this it’s great as it’s fun and pretty child proof too 😉
