1st Japan Auction Purchase TnA galore..

[ripley802]

Well, after much debate I decided to finally try the Japan Auctions. I will post my expierence in another thread in case anyone is thinking of doing so and maybe has some questions still or just wants to hear my thoughts. This thread though is for the trains. Christmas has come and gone this year, but here was my Presents..

Here is the box. Was HUGE...

Yes those are all Talk n Action:


Other trains and cars:


And yes this is both TnA Henry and Gordon:



So condition varies. Henry defiantly needs some work. He has battery corrosion. Gordon came on fine but no sound. I tested a Percy and Thomas and both worked and spoke Japaneese. That was great as I did not have these with that "accent" yet. There was also a Real Steam Talking Thomas but in looking at it someone gutted the engine portion. I may be able to steal some parts from and American one..

Hope you enjoy, I know I will. And will be posting some more as I get them cleaned up and going. I think I have close to 20+ of the TnA engines.

These things are just so cool and fun to repair..
