Certain Plarail items on Amazon Japan might remain out of stock for months. - Trainboy90 Productions - 06-22-2020
Okay, I was on Amazon Japan that there some Plarails that haven't been in stock for quite some time (The ones that are still in production, not discontinued). Who knows what's going on? I wonder how often Amazom Japan stocks these items? Could it be the current pandemic putting these items out of stock for long periods of time?
Here's Edward and Henry (The 2018 versions) for an example:

I might hopefully be getting my hands on Plarail TS-10 (For a custom), TS-18 (For a detailed custom), & S-57 (An as is and for a custom) sometime next month when they're in stock hopefully at the time.

Have you checked other Online sellers T-Boy? Maybe they are having limited production runs due to the pandemic.

I did, they're more expensive than Amazon themselves.

But other sellers do have them right? I see that Hobby Search only has 5 Thomas trains in stock https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/list/2561/0/1?sold=1

Yeah but they're much more expensive and possibly less stock. Sometimes they're out of stock for months.

Its even worse for the Thomas and Friends Special Sets at Hobby Search with only 2 available and another for pre-order. https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/list/2562/0/1?sold=1

Hopefully production gets back to normal later this year. I still have plans to get some for future customs.

Sorry to bump this topic again.
I'm hearing that this year, engines like Nia, Ashima, and Yong Bao are now out of stock too. Sorry to bump this.

Sorry for putting this in another thread.

Nia seems to be out of stock today. Also, Ashima and Yong Bao are no longer available from Amazon themselves for some reason.
This is interesting
