Plarail TOMY Thomas NEW RELEASES

Sounds like great fun for the children, thanks Dr Chris 😃

August 10th release, J.R. Kyushu Splatrain.  "This specially designed express train was operated within the JR Kyushu area from February to May 2024 and was decorated with cool, colorful Splatoon 3 motifs."

Thank you Dr Chris...Hurray...a new and different PlaKid. I would be interested in seeing the manufacturing processes for how they make PlaKids and how long a production run is before they have all they need of a certain look. I also wonder if they have saved all the molds of the past styles of Kids so they can be re-imagined.

For that to happen, there would need to have been an actual Mario-themed train. I wasn't aware there had been one, but...
