3	''TOMICA Thomas & Friends'' is a parody series of ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends'' by [[https://www.youtube.com/user/DieselD199 DieselD199]] on Website/YouTube. It follows the same general idea, but with in-jokes, parental bonuses and themes that wouldn't be present in the original show. It was originally made with Tomy toys, but like the show, has since gone CGI.

5	----
6	!!''TOMICA Thomas & Friends'' provides examples of:
7
8	* AbhorrentAdmirer: Toad likes Oliver so much that it's seen as pathetic. Some of the things that Oliver's said to him include:
9	-->'''Oliver:''' Toad. Shut up.\
10	'''Oliver:''' Are you kidding me? Toad's a ''worse'' name than Duck.\
11	'''Oliver:''' ''Oh my god'', Toad, you are ''so'' annoying!
12	* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Thomas becomes a {{Jerkass}} and sometimes a JerkWithAHeartOfJerk, Edward is a borderline pervert a la [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Herbert]], Henry and Molly TookALevelInDumbass, Percy is gay, Toby also becomes a {{Jerkass}} and Duck hates diesels and [[spoiler: gets possessed]].
13	* AffectionateParody: Of WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends.
14	* AmbiguouslyGay: Toad is ''very'' close to Oliver. The engine, however...
15	-->''[after being asked about Valentine's Day]''\
16	'''Oliver:''' I wish I could, but I'm going to be [sigh], ''Toad's'' Valentine.\
17	'''Toad:''' Oh, it's going to be ''so'' romantic, Mr Oliver.\
18	'''Oliver:''' OH MY GOD, Toad, you are ''so'' annoying!
19	* BigEater: The Fat Controller once nearly ruined Christmas thanks to his large appetite. He also once sent out Thomas to do, as the engine said himself, "his food shopping".
20	* BlatantLies: In short 3, Thomas vehemently denies violently [[DisproportionateRetribution murdering the Fat Controller over a donut]], despite it being proved by video evidence on Website/YouTube ''and'' Thomas himself saying so.
21	* BuffySpeak: "Attack of the Wooden Box on Wheels"
22	* TheCameo: The Slender Engine appears in occasional background shots; most often when it's mentioned offhand.
23	* {{Camp}}: Percy comes off as this. He has a very high-pitched voice, is quite close to Thomas and wants to be Music/MileyCyrus for Halloween. Not helped by the fact that he's actually CampGay.
24	* CurseCutShort: Peter Sam barely has enough time to say ''motherfucker'' before the trucks barrel into him in short 38.
25	* DirtyOldMan: Edward. His price for excorcising Duck in short 32? ''Percy''.
26	* DisproportionateRetribution:
27	** Thomas blows up Toby's shed because he is bored.
28	** He also kills the Fat Controller because he ate the last donut.
29	* ADogNamedDog: Lampshaded in short 24, when the Fat Controller first hears Diesel's name:
30	-->'''The Fat Controller:''' Well, that's bloody original, that is.
31	* DwindlingParty: [[spoiler:In short 37, the Slender Engine takes out engines during the night, starting with Henry, until only Thomas and Percy are the ones left.]]
32	* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The first two shorts are the only videos to be age-restricted due to excessive cursing. A lot of the older videos also had a lot of humor intended for older audiences. [=DieselD199=] would later go back and remake the first short in his current style.
33	* EldritchAbomination: The Slender Engine. It's a jet black steam engine with a blank face, and is implied to have supernatural powers. [[spoiler: Then it gets possessed.]]
34	* [[EnergyWeapon Frickin' Laser Beams]]: The giant Thomas from Henry's dream in short 35 can shoot lasers from its eyes.
35	* InsaneTrollLogic: Thomas thinks that he is invincible because he is the title character.
36	* InsistentTerminology: It's not a lobotomy, it's 'sensitivity training'.
37	* {{Irony}}: Thomas is disgusted by 'Cheap merchandising!' in short 35, despite the fact that he's also a toy.
38	* {{Jerkass}}: Thomas, surprisingly.
39	* JumpScare: Whenever the Slender Engine is seen, this is inevitable, which makes sense [[Franchise/TheSlenderManMythos considering its inspiration.]]
40	* LarynxDissonance: Diesel D 199's portrayal of Emily.
41	* LeaningOnTheFourthWall:
42	** From short 17:
43	--->'''James:''' Haven't you ever read the opening credits?
44	** From short 38:
45	--->'''Trucks:''' It made more sense in the ''Literature/TheRailwaySeries''.
46	* NegativeContinuity: The Fat Controller is brutally murdered by Thomas in short 5, only for him to reappear alive and well a few shorts later. Knapford Station has also been destroyed ''twice'' only to be completely rebuilt in the next episode.
47	* NoodleIncident:
48	** Toby turns out to be able to exorcise farm animals.
49	** Thomas can ''somehow'' buy uranium off eBay.
50	* NoPeriodsPeriod: Played with in short 5:
51	-->'''James:''' Maybe it's his time of the month.
52	* RunningGag: Several.
53	** Oliver telling Toad to shut up.
54	** How Duck has a stupid name for an engine.
55	** Thomas repeatedly referring to his status as title character and how he is thus invincible.
56	* SavingChristmas: Henry, Gordon and James try to stop the [[BigEater Fat Controller]] from eating all the cookies and milk.
57	* ScareChord: Always accompanies the Slender Engine's JumpScare.
58	* ShoutOut:
59	** The Slender Engine is an obvious reference to the Slenderman creepypasta.
60	** For Halloween, Henry, Gordon and James once dressed up as the Avengers.
61	* TheStoner: Henry is implied to be this after his 'special coal' makes Gordon and James high, (although in Henry’s defense he still claims to smoke that coal for ''Medical Reasons'').
62	* StuffBlowingUp: Knapford Station has been blown up ''twice'', Bill and Ben once blew up the Express by accident, and Thomas has destroyed Toby's shed because he was bored.
63	* TakeThat: A number of shorts poke fun at recent events on the show. Short 47 is particularly vicious.
