What is a good/fair price for talk n action Toby and diesel 10?

The rivets were a bust. I found some on amazon I am going to order but for now used hot glue. I got D10 working tonight. Very cool and like Muddy said, very complex. I had to use a spare set of black wheels too as the gear was stripped on the ones it had. Actually this has been the case on all three TnA engines.

I started on James tonight. He was by first the worse of the three. I had to replace the bottom battery terminal, and some one had tried a fix at one time with the red wire, it was replaced with a very heavy gauge wire, so while troubleshooting I swapped it out. I felt like a moron through. I thought the motor was dead because it would not turn over when testing with my battery tester. I soldiered in a new one, and same thing. Swapped the batteries out in my tester and voila.. But I luckily got the gearbox and motor all back together. I got the wires connected back and it worked while disassembled, but once assembled, it would not come on. I will look a bit more tomorrow maybe.

That said, James is Japanese too. Is that a rare version? I was thinking it was going to be English.

That's great!! Yes all the Japanese T'nA's are 15 year old toys by now, and unless you live in Japan VERY hard to find in the western world...ALSO there is a fuse underneath that piece of tape aboave/ between the battery terminals..I don't know it's value, but I had to replace it on James once to get him working... Congrats and good luck!!
