I have a hard time identifying all the engines, especially some of the diesels, but it looks to me like you basically have Wave 2 plus Diesel 10 and Racing Gordon. Did you get them all in blind bags, or did Diesel 10 and Racing Gordon come from a different source (they also come in a 3-pack with Chillin' Sidney)? If Diesel 10 came in a blind bag you might be getting the same waves as Japan where Diesel 10 was in Wave 2, also.

RE: thomas and friends mini series - drewbenn - 10-16-2015

So I noticed something the other day: there's a definite hierarchy of engines. With the exception of bags 65/66 in Wave 4, and the DC engines that were apparently tacked on later, the engines within each wave follow the exact same order. The 3-packs also use the same order: the first 3-pack has engines 1, 11, and 19; the second has 2, 12, and 20; the third has 3, 13, and 21; and so on. Here's a matrix of their order and 3-pack locations:

The 8-packs, on the other hand, don't seem to follow any obvious order. So I think one person (or team) with a lot of attention to detail may have created the line and 3-packs, then someone else (who didn't have all the original information) did the 8-packs, DC engines, and was responsible for Wave 4. Another possible explanation for the strangeness of the 8-packs is that there were originally supposed to be five but someone nixed the last 8-pack (presumably the missing 8-pack would have contained Golden Thomas; that would also have put 76 engines in blister packs, or one more than the entire range, so maybe Dirty Percy was originally slated for an 8-pack, too).

nice breakdown, drew.

Not much, Bag 19 Super Thomas, the three in 3-pack L and most of the DCs.
For you Android users out there, I *finally* got my app up on the Google Play store. Just look for Blind Bag Helper.

Many, many thanks to everyone here and over at http://thomasminis.wikia.com/, I couldn't have done it without you. If anyone wants credits for any of the pictures used, I'm more than happy to give due credit.

Any and all feedback is welcome as well.
Does anyone know of any actual track sets (other than the Twist & Turn set) in the pipeline? Or if there are any tracks out there that these guys will fit well on?

I'm considering a 3D printer to make my own track if there are none on the horizon.
