finally arrived... viaduct and eneos sets - sunhuntin - 05-10-2014

well, after 15 days [yes, thats right!!] the two sets finally arrived.
very dissappointed with the "service" from the seller. yes, it was over a long weekend and school holidays, but somehow they had time to relist the one set i didnt bid on, but no time to flick me a quick email saying they are currently away. it took over a week just to get an email out of them.

the petrol station. i paid $20 for this. the plakid seems to have a bit of wear to the front, but not too major.

my cat tippy decided to help me take it to bits, before i had the photos needed. spoilt little brat that he is. Angel

the engine. its a really pale grey, quite a nice color. the battery terminals needed to have corrosion removed before it would work.

Looks like a preview of the new Godzilla movie ready to be released. "Mutated by atomic radiation, Cat-zilla destroys Tokyo"

I like the detail stickers of the elevated train station. I wish they would make just detail stickers that you could buy. I wish they would make a gray girder bridge also. They make just about every other color one. I think a dark gray bridge along with the light gray tracks and station would look good.

I dislike sellers that don't give the common courtesy of communication.

Great additions to your collection. Thanks for sharing the pictures with us.

Love the viaduct set! Hikari (translates to "Light") Railstar 700 Series is a great train!

@Super yeah they do make quite a few colors I am surprised no Grey as well.

super, i like the stickers too. theres one that looks like a poster with a shinkansen and red bridge. i wouldnt mind a full size version to go on my wall, lol.
yes, the lack of emails was annoying, and i went so far as to emailing the site and letting them know in case i needed their help. on the upside, because the seller hadnt sent the payment details, i hadnt actually lost anything that first week. if my $80 had gone out, i would have been much more concerned.

the bridge is a sort of purpley-grey. also a nice color, but i do agree it should have been dark grey.

geri, thanks for the correct train name. dont know what i would do without you!
