New Thomas Keihan 10000 S-59 - Gerisplarail1 - 10-08-2015
So The new Thomas and Friends wrapping Keihan 10000 arrived at my door today, and as expected it is a re-release of the first ever Tomy Thomas wrapping Keihan which has become quite rare and fetches a very high price.
This new release will replace the Keihan Elegant Saloon as catalog #S-59, meaning The Elegant Saloon has just gone out of print.
As you can see this release has different packaging and has the new drive unit, so it runs on a AA battery as opposed to C sized I have not run it yet but I am hoping this means it will be faster than its rare counterpart!
the original will go back in his box and this new one will be the one I run from here on out!
here is a picture I just took to show the comparison:

Are they exactly the same with the same wrapping but only the chassis is different?

Is this still available for purchase somewhere? Or was it only available for a limited time? Thanks.

this should be easily obtainable for at least a year. it just came out so it may take a minute for it to show up on ebay. I know Hobby Search is currently sold out but it will probably be getting more soon, they are sold out because they have just fulfilled their pre-orders
and this will be a regular catalog model you should have no trouble locating it but if you do I will be glad to help you locate one online.
