My son and I were at the Thomas & Friends Adventures Media Launch yesterday. My son loves to watch Thomas & Friends cartoon. We had a lot of fun here as Mattel Southeast Asia (Mattel) launched a new Thomas & Friends™ toy line in Malaysia, themed around Thomas’ new Adventures beyond the Island of Sodor.

In conjunction with the launch, Mattel has teamed up with Sunway Pyramid to bring Thomas & Friends’ Adventures to life. From now till 14^th May 2017, the Thomas & Friends™ Adventures event will be held at the Blue Concourse of Sunway Pyramid Shopping Mall. Children in Malaysia will be the first in Southeast Asia to experience the Adventures on land, sea and space with their favourite blue engine.

“In this digital age, parents are faced with the challenge of finding alternative ways to stimulate the healthy development of children in the crucial early years. The new toy line brings back the fun of physical play, presenting Thomas & Friends™ in new environments that encourage children to broaden the scope of their imagination through the endless hours of fun that physical play provides,” said Joanne Teng, Senior Brand Manager, Mattel Southeast Asia.

Children will be able to participate in a special obstacle course where they can find their way through a maze on land, slide into the sea of Adventure, challenge themselves to ‘Reach for the Stars’ in space and go on a ride on a Thomas train. The Thomas & Friends™ Adventures event promises to be exciting and engaging, with attractive prizes to be won, including the all-new Thomas & Friends™ Adventures engines and track sets.
