Plarail TOMY Thomas NEW RELEASES

And also this Let`s Connect Plarail 5 (Set of 10) (Shokugan) comes mid July:

This is not regular Plarail, the cars are about 70mm long, about 50% of regular Plarail size, and the gauge of the tracks reduced accordingly, maybe the same as Capsule Plarail track. Despite there being a representation of an on/off switch, they are not motorised. It is made by F-Toys Confect (i.e. candy) under licence from Plarail. I seem to remember F-toys making pre-painted 1:144 scale snap-together helecopter construction kits many years ago, but I'd need to check the memory-banks.  Not surprisingly (this being #5) there are four previous 3-train sets available, the first released in October 2017. We probably need a separate thread for these.
