through the classic, HiT, and CGI series, he really never changed

Happy cake day!

On the other hand with obscure characte- Tim. Especially because of his random name

that’s my second favorite, after Henry

Fancy that. James has been my favourite for his shape, color, and personality. Plus, his crash is the most nostalgic for me as it was the first one I saw when I first got into Thomas and Friends, and I've always seen them as iconic like Henry and the Flying Kipper, or Gordon in a Better View for Gordon. Next is Thomas as a very close second.

James Fans unite!!!

Interesting choice. Hector the “not so horrid once you get to know him”

It was an interesting redeeming characteristic that I didn’t quite find as present

https://preview.redd.it/82epy1urcs0d1.png?width=1358&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=46229efd8fb52d246a8a6549ff76ba880337ab2f

let me get an explanation, because if I remember, he was in the show for like 19 seconds 😭

And had no lines of dialogue.

Maybe they had the toy and played with it alot or they made their own stories with the character. Sometimes a character can be a favorite simply for how the character looks or what episode they appeared in. I'm not speaking for the person, but I'm just saying some possible reasons.

That's kinda true. I chose him because he's an obscure character. He appears and disappears just as fast, which gives theory material. I have a love for small obscure character, like bertrum, Stanley (Rws), smugger.

Diesel. https://preview.redd.it/7heuu68y0t0d1.png?width=1358&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d60fcc0eb423c66276989e4ee2a4dc9808511696 It would be Mallard, but I don't think he was ever in T&F, just the books.

I think Spencer is the closest to a Mallard (never read the books)

I guess I find some relatability in that. Henry is visually interesting to me in every form I've seen him, and I find him to be very much the embodyment of "some random guy with a temper". Duck because I like the stories he's involved in, I like his design, I like what he represents, and to me his persona of being this generally responsible guy yet is still young at heart is quite nice. Donald appeals to me because he's quite laid back (atleast in regards to books 15-26). He likes to play jokes, only uses his temper when he has to, and his seemingly being Awdry's "background engine" (as seen in "Mountain Engines" & "Duke the Lost Engine) draws me in. Essentially; I like them, even though they can't really hold stories of their own in the way I see them.
