Yes I like The reissue of the 4 Stage tower wish it still came with exclusive train, I would like to get it but I already have more curved rails than I could ever possibly use.

I am seriously considering the E7 Hokoriku set though!

Thanks Ucwepn

I am always glad when you post news of anything coming our way. Please keep them coming whenever you come across some news.

I have to admit though that I am not too excited about any of these as they all look to be items that are easily available now. The 4 Stage Tower doesn't look to be ramped so the trains would just go round and round in a small circle. The only things that aren't that easy to obtain are the gray risers though, especially the double wides. I know this because I have been buying up a few hundred of them on Yahoo Japan Hmmm...that brings to mind that we should have a thread about what we wish would be released in case Takara/Tomy/Plarail/Hypercity/Tomica World/Thomas passes by these Forums...

I posted this link in the Plarail group on Facebook the day this was officially announced and the post was ignored but anyway here is the link to Tomy Japans official announcement!

How do you get the pages to translate to English on the Tarkara/Tomy site. I have been trying to research their site for a long time but every time I hit the English button in the upper right corner I get sent to this page http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/english/index.html which the only English product page I can get is http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/english/prod...index.html which has no hot links to click on. What am I doing wrong and can I browse around looking for products in English?

use Google Chrome as your Browser and and google translate asks if you want it translated, you can also set Google translate to translate anytime your on a Japanese page. I also use it to translate my search words for Japanese auctions then I get right to the item I am looking for!

Strange as I thought that would be the purpose of the English button on a web page. What I can't get to is browsing their products. I get to this page http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/english/prod...index.html which is already in English and you would think that each category you would be able to click on but there is nothing to click. How do you browse around the site?

when you push the English button it takes you to a useless site of only the information they offer to english speaking people. Since their plarail is not sold in U.S. THEY DONT MAKE IT SO WE CAN EASILY VIEW. I use google translate even though it does not translate the site tabs that say the different sections of page . i just clicked on them all and google translate automatically translates the new page the tab directed me to, I do that until I find the tabs to plarail sections then remember or bookmark so I can review later.
