I think the main complaint was that the Diesel 10 toys currently lack the evil grin. They have a soft, friendly smile.

Everyone is just mad that his chin isn't so seductively chiseled anymore

"He'll always rank 10/10 for devious deeds and brutal strength, and be the blast from the past that hates steam engines" That last sentence almost had me in tears 😤💯

Matt Wilkinson once said that Diesel 10 is his favorite character to voice.

To me, Diesel 10 was always one of those characters that had much potential, yet limited potential, in terms of what could be done with him in television series. Though, what they could do with him worked very well, for where they were trying to go.

I always saw 10 as freaking hilarious as a kid in the movie. Maybe it was because of his voice actor who sounds like he improved everything like a champ and was having a blast doing so.

9:11 "Oh, look, it's that funny claw guy, get him mom, I wanna put my Christmas decorations on him" lol

I say he'll may comeback, but obviously in toddler form. He still left an impression years after the movie with his unique design and character.

People seem to forget Diesel 10 only put his plans into action in Thomas and the Magic Railroad after Sir Topham Hatt left. You don't do that unless you are afraid of that person. And when it comes to classic Topham, you understand why. Sure, he could be kind, but get on his bad side, and oh boy, you are in for a rough time. The reason it fails in Day of the Diesels is becuase CGI Topham is nowhere near as intimidating, and is honestly a joke.

3:20 uh you may wanna tell that to young me who was terrified to literally leave my room as I thought he would find me and murder me

Y’all better stop sleeping on mr troublesome junction ✨

10:04 I like how Diesel 10 is restraining himself from hurting Percy which in its self is pretty scary

I remember when I was a little boy and after watching misty island rescue I was absolutely hyped to see the CGI diesel 10 and was so hyped to see diesel 10 make a full on return in CGI

I still don't get why Diesel 10 sounds like Emperor Palpatine in the CGI series.

Diesel 10 is certainly fascinating, having three distinct incarnations, the crazy villain, a grumpy bully and the devious mastermind.

My biggest complaint with CGI Diesel 10 is his new voice. A lot of the characters voices got nerfed, but Diesel 10's new voice is terribly high pitched and sounds way too soft. If anything, his original voice is the best, as it was both scary and funny.

Diesel 10 actually appeared in The Great Discovery although he doesn't speak, he's just in the background, which means he appears in all 3 model movies

Interesting man I never once thought of this. I always thought Diesel 10 wanted to pretend he was Percy's friend but I never once knew he wanted to manipulate him in order to get Thomas and in order to scrap him ya know. I think that's interesting you thought of him like that man spot on. I think Day of the Diesels, as well as Adventure Begins, Hero of the Rails, and Misty Island Rescue are the best CGI Thomas movies ever!! Not as great as the classic models movies of course (like both Magic Railroad and Great Discovery), but they're still nice to watch from time to time.

Also diesel 10 was in the great discovery as a cameo with some other diesels after thomas was found

Pinchy is semi-intellagent.

I was never scared of D10, but I get why he might've been spooky to some kids. Still, I mean...he's got a new jersey accent. Also, D10 was the only good thing about COE. He was legit spooky in that, but he fits on the railroad. Also, if CGI Diesel 10 and CGI Diesel were to switch personalities, it'd make way more sense.

I feel like TATMR diesel 10 is cannon, because in order to get back into sodor, he had to be nicer, just so he then could destroy the Stemies.

Let’s hope it doesn’t get taken down again

Can i be honest, I didn't know diesel 10's name until calling all engines came out. Great vid btw

Found you through your Hero of the Rails video, I love your stuff homie keep it up!

You do a good job stating the positive things about the franchise

Just saying I love the old voice for diesel ten. But love the grimy oiled look he has in cgi. Can we have both as one please.

For me, I like original Diesel 10 for the same reasons I like Ripto in Spyro 2. An angry and brutish villain who's temper would sometimes get the best of them, while still posing a genuine threat. They each had their moments of hilarity but proved dangerous, because of _and_ in spite of their personality flaws.

See the thing is Diesel 10 had to change his character for his plan to work. When trying to get Percy on their side, if he was the same homicidal maniac, it wouldn’t work coz Percy wouldn’t do it which is why we see him almost snap a couple of times.

This is amazing man !!!!

Well, it’s a good thing none of the narrators say his Claw’s name

I was an easily-scared kid, and I was the right age and demographic for Magic Railroad when it came out. In fact, it literally came out on my 6th birthday. I didn't find Diesel 10 scary either. I thought he was one of the coolest parts of Thomas, and his toys were my favorite...despite the fact that the ERTL one had zero claw articulation. At most, the very first time I saw his evil grin in a trailer, I found it creepy, but beyond that, he was the coolest part.

The funny thing is As a kid I loved diesel 10 in TATMR and CAE and I thought he was funny 😆

I like both faces of Diesel 10, he has always been my favorite character in Thomas the tank engine, he's a Robot, I mean I love him no matter what, I really don't care about the faces I like him no matter what.

Great job bro keep up the good work

9:54 10:04 You can tell he was seriously planning on scrapping Percy or pushing him off the platform in this moment

RIP diesel 10 he had a good run

fun fact: the voice actor for Dart and Flynn was gonna voice Diesel 10 but got replaced cause like Keith Scott it was too "scary"

I watched TATMR when I was 3 or 4 and in no way I was in the slightest afraid of Diesel 10.

Fairly good Point.

4:25 I wouldn’t say it became non canon, because all the engines somehow knew him in Calling All Engines, also Lady was in that same movie in a dream sequence, so it wouldn’t makes sense if Thomas was dreaming about her or he & the Steam Team knew who Diesel 10 was in the movie if Magic Railroad’s not canon.

I'm a kid and I will remember diesel 10 from Thomas and the magic railroad

When you realize that diesel 10 is in the background of the great discovery

2:47 your not alone brother

Day of the diesels movie got me inspired as a kid that I made my own diesel works out of color papers for my take-alongs. It was cool but sadly I don't have it anymore.

Diesel 10 was in the great discovery as a cameo

He did make a small cameo in The Great Discovery in the quarry with the other diesels

So cool

k but like where's the part where you tell us why "The Missing Christmas Decorations" had a good representation of D10 cuz i'm still not gonna buy that

I agree with you on all statements

Some one should actually bring back a series only about diesel 10 and his homicidal way and also with his fan made, siblings like diesel 13 and 20.

Magic railroad is not canon I'm so sad 😭 I never knew this for 16 years

(Just wanted to point something out) Diesel 10 made a small cameo in The Great Discovery

True

Did you know that in the directors cut of tatmr there was going to be a scene in which after diesel 10 and pt boomer are in the barge percy pulls up to the viaduct with Mr C and Junior and Junior uses his magic bandana to cover Diesel 10 and Pt boomer and sludge and it is very disturbing

If y'all remember clearly, Diesel 10 isn't really an engine, he's actually a Robot 🤖. Believe it or not, I'm just telling the truth, that's a Robot 🤖.

14:02 where are all his wrinkles then? The original Diesel 10 had looked much more older (and so had the others) And don't tell me that chaotic changing of one's facial expression in less than half second again and again is natural -_- Anyway, nice video. 👍

If they had brought the original voice actor in the cgi series with the same personality and design and the way the claw teeth do go pass each other unlike the magic railroad then that would be was awesome to his original face in CGI

when i was 2 i loved diesel 10 but also had nightmares that he was chasing me down but still love his character

Diesel 10 was in the great discovery you just have to look for him

Honestly the only thing that made me upset with cgi diesel 10 was after all the manipulation of Percy and acting like a mob boss. He just spids around a turntable I was expecting him to trash the steam works a little similar to how he smashed the scaffolding wall at tidmouth sheds in MR but no he just spins on a turntable what a letdown even if it was a little bit a little goes a long way. Also personal preference wished he called him Fat hat at least once didn't have to be at him could be under the breath just having it said would have been nice other than the end I think he was handled well.

when i was a kid i used to be scared of the part when diesel 10 comes to tidmouth sheds and also his scared face

I think I agree with you, The Unlucky Tug, The Sudrian, and Narrow Gauge (yes that's an actual channel name). The changes made to his CGI character and his very very brief HiT model era were understandable. Not the best "hooray hooray oh joyous-ray" changes, but slightly understandable. Due to the differences in tones between Gulleen and HiT regarding the ownership of Thomas (one willing to take chances by making content an entire family could enjoy [I.E. Season 5 and Magic Railroad vs Calling All Engines], HiT had the plan "no more of that horrible scary content because that'll cause controversy from parents against us. Let's make everyone act as a childish, idiotic, boring reckless imbecile, completely disregarded their previous personalities because we don't give a shit (I.E. Skarloey and Rheneas)." Because of this, originally slightly scary, manipulative yet comical characters like Diesel 10, the Killdane Ironworks Twins Arry and Bert and Devious Diesel became childish yet light-hearted bullies. However, as already stated in this, I slightly understand the change. Diesel 10 was only changed from Britt's original version by HiT to prevent themselves from receiving very angry letters from parents with children who watch the show. After all, P.T Boomer was removed from the original Director's Cut of TATMR after baby test audiences claimed to be "too scary" for children. Oh sure, Doug Lennox was too scary, but a big BR 42 Warship with a big hydraulic scrap picking up claw wasn't scary? People are messed up when things are scary. Clowns are scary, Slenderman is scary, Diesel 10 is hilariously comedic in TATMR, P.T Boomer was a bit boring. Come on idiots, wake up. This personally was carried on all the way until Day of The Diesels, and while yes, he did become a childish coward at the very very end, he was manipulative and secretive, using Percy as a pawn to have his plan come to fruition. Ok, that's enough ranting

They probably didn’t want to show an engine actually hurt a person since they are supposed to have drivers which means someone could be making his claw grab someone (like Sir Toppham)

10:12 Am I the only one that heard the Splodge theme there?

There a camio I notice on my last verwing of great discovery

Here’s things I find that ruined Diesel 10, having him as a good guy in CAE, being a big baby in the Christmas episode and in DOTD, also Pinchy is not even called Pinchy anymore, that’s saying oh there is Jerry and his huge big body guard that we forgot what his name was, and I’m disappointed that instead of using Splodge, he used Paxton, I mean 2 class 08s are better than 1, sure they turned on him but in the directors cut, George turns on them and trapping them using a boulder, also it just sucks how he made a cameo appearance in TGR and in that one BWBA episode (ok maybe not him but Pinchy appeared) overall I like CGI D10 but I like model version more

My head cannon for my thomas universe is that the magic railroad is cannon but i erase the magic element and mr conducter just travel by train and lady is just an very old engine that thomas just want to protect and diesel 10 want to destroyed because she is an escapey like oliver

If he's not scary then why do we all get nightmares of him trying to murder us?

6:04 not trying to be rude but d10 does make another model series cameo in the great discovery

11:02 the best part

One thing that makes me question, is Diesel 10 still going to be afraid of Sugar??

He made a cameo in the great discovery though

What's the music at 4:35?

GUUD GUUD OWSEEM

he scared me when i was younger not anymore

Does the cameo in the Great Discovery count

Test audience: let’s put a br class 42 warship diesel with a non hydraulic claw instead of an old man because people aren’t afraid of trains OutSide of Tatmr: Diesel 10 and his scary claw BWBA: Oh you guys let’s have this maniacs claw return for some steam engine that wants to be powerful Christmas Special: Paxton, come with me CAE: officially loses his evil role TGD: did nothing but be a bg character MIR: nothing wrong here These are just flaws I found throughout every D10 appearance

It's not Season 25 it's a reboot.

what l was 6 when l watched Thomas and the Magic Railroad... l found diesel 10 fascinating and because l was a kid l went out with my mum and dad and brought every diesel 10 train l could get l didn't find him scary he was one of them trains that wasn't in any episodes when I was a kid watching Thomas.. so l found him special and very unique because of that big arse crane arm claw that he had🥴🤣

13:22 That's the beauty of animation, you can get away with making characters with exaggerated expressions. How is this any different with Dragon Ball Z or hell any animations that exaggerate their faces/movements? You're essentially taking away the soul of the character and leave it with a bland face because it's not "natutal." This the same mindset people had when making the Lion King remake.

Well, there is the upcoming 2022 movie

More like Diesel 10 was using Percy as his little minion

Thomas and the Tragic failroad

Yeah, the toys honestly should have kept the classic series faces. The CGI faces honestly just feel odd on the toys.

Lol after the coal falls on him he said “now thats gonna ruin my face shield” XD like serously they probably spent awhile cleaning that one, and Diesel 10 is self aware hes a model lol. It sucks we only see Diesel 10 4 times he was the best character

I like original desil 10 and cgi desil 10

You had to put Willy Wonka in 😡

11:36 if that’s the case then why is lady in calling all engines

Defently i think nwr1991 Is post tatmr Diesel 10 done right in my opinión

The real question is, who tf is his driver, and why are they going along with this?

I honestly think the TCC handled D10 the best!

ah, 609 likes, *nice*

I like both diesel. Only wrost the cgi then other movie is the voice. But hate splat and dodge, make him a wimp. And his friend in cgi make him wimp again, he needs better friends

Where tf is lady is my question

Then why Lady be in Calling All Engines?

I personally prefer his Brooklyn accent and his dialect from the film . Not his attitude, just how he talked.

I've always thought that scene where Sir Topham tells off Diesel 10 actually makes sense realistically. In a world where sentient trains exist, there must be a system that prevents violent homicidal engines from fatally injuring people. If Diesel 10 actually tried to use Pinchy to attack him, there would definitely be dire consequences (most likely the threat of being scrapped). In Day of the Diesel, Diesel 10 was essentially trying to showcase how Diesels are not always given the same level of treatment as the Steamies (hence the state of the Dieselworks). Yet he's not above using underhanded tactics to pull this off, ie. manipulating an emotionally vulnerable Percy and his power trip insisting that he won't give the Steamworks back. Overall, I think this was a good direction to take Diesel 10 in as it rounds him out as a character better than tatmr.
