I received a couple goodies today... From Japan.. - ripley802 - 10-08-2015

Hello all. Well I finally received a package well actually 2 from Japan. One is the Patchwork HIRO. Very excited for this one. He was a bit pricey but worth it for me. HIRO is a favorite character for me so it was a mist have. I would have liked a bit more on the tender but otherwise it is a great train. And next we have the C571 engine which comes with a pla-kid I believe is what they are called. This is my first one like this, so o must say it is pretty cool too. I was not thinking it was tender driven, but it is all good. Finally I picked up the "snow storm" Oliver on eBay. I had a regular one but sold it awhile back so it is nice to add this back to the collection. Snow storm Kelly is on the way as well.

Very nice additions to your collection Ripley. I too wish Hiro's tender was also patchworked but my guess is that in the story/episode Hiro was abandoned and deteriorating without his tender and a new tender was given to him after he was repaired.

It was in the special Hero of the Rails, and his tender was not patchworked, so it's actually correct.

Yeah, I realize this is the correct design, just wish they would have had one "patchworked".. Not a huge issue, I still like it.

The Sonic is pretty robotic looking. I always thought the real trains front resembled an insect face.

Sweet! Someday I will get another train...
