Because they are in high demand!
And more importantly we grandparents (and a lot of parents) will pay any price to see that beautiful smile on our toddlers' face when we give them their beloved Thomas LOL!
One thing to think about-----Our youngest grandson just turned 7 and no longer plays with any of the Thomas stuff we bought him over the last few years.
I sold all of his Thomas toys for a little less than what I paid for it.
I even had a bidding war going on for the train and tracks on a local garage sale site--
I don't agree with the high prices of kid's toys, but again, most of us will pay it.

They just are - incredibly popular. My boyz love em too.....Keep looking around on line for them....there are dozens of websites that have em keep checking ebay. Brio makes a similar set like thomas too - you could always get some of the main engines then get the Brio track etc...they all fit together. Dont buy anything in stores....it's too much$
