Hi there Super, to answer your question:
The troublesome tanker was first released in 2001 for Plarail in the Thomas and the Mirthful Cars Freight Set - only available in Japan at the time. Then, in 2003 the box was updated for Japan and Korea. It was also sold in Australia however the box had a Tomica World box design - this variant of the set was shortly retired that same year.
