The TOMY Thomas & Friends Big Loader set is a well known classic toy which many children around the world have enjoyed. Watch out as there is a cheap and nasty knock off version of this toy and it's loaded with dark side trouble.

Fake toys were purchased from stores in Sydney's western suburbs markets.

The real toy is still available today but watch out the pricing is pretty wild, I have seen some online vendors asking as much as $200 for this simple toy train set.
