A Train Not Yet Released??? - Super - 05-05-2017
In Suzukawas latest video where she visits the Plarail Tokyo Expo 2017 there is a train that I don't believe I have seen yet at the 5:52 Mark The Fujisan View Express. A tourist train to Mt Fuji that debut in June of 2016 https://www.japanstation.com/the-new-fujisan-view-express-to-make-spring-debut-this-april/ Maybe I missed this or just plain forgot discussing this but has anyone else seen or heard about this Plarail release?

I haven't seen it discussed yet but that's a nice looking train. Not sure if I'll buy it but darn, I'm tempted!

I have not seen this one either, although I do like this one..

Nice train so long as the windows are either moulded or painted rather than stickers like some others of recent times
RE: A Train Not Yet Released??? - Super - 05-05-2017
Good question but with only being able to look at this picture and video it seems like that everything is 3D molded and any of the Graphic/Lettering looks to be printed although it all remains to be seen with more proper pictures to peruse.
Upon further research, I wonder why we never saw a Plarail Model release of the Fujisan Express 2000 which was retired when this new train took its place last year.

You can't hear the echo?
BTW - On that video did you notice the buildings on the PlaRail layout? Seems they are clear boxes with paper interiors depicting different buildings, first time I think I've seen them, interesting looking if not outstanding...
RE: A Train Not Yet Released??? - Super - 05-06-2017
Those do look like new type, stackable Tomica buildings that must come in sets as Suzukawa has a video on one here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XU3kutNEWXg&t=424s
There is also a neat, vintage display with original boxes at the Expo show starting at the 0:31 second mark

Nope, I spent the last of my money on making a Krauss Maffei hydraulic in Lego size. (It's the first ever by the way)
