I just got back from the research trip.
Now, C58 Steam Locomotive which is manufactured for only 1 year in 1972, information is very scarce on the internet. I heard some people say 4 years from 1972 and 1 year from 1970, so information is fluctuating to a certain degree. However the C58 appeared in only 1 box, in the Merry-Go-Round mark era and the logo was discontinued in 1973. The G-nn number on the box is G-21 so it is definitely 1972. Welcome the C58 into the ever confused category of D51 body, where it shares similar mold with the early D51 and the C62汽笛入り.
Next is Electric Train (Yellow) from the 3rd generation box. The body looks like the first generation mold, but the chassis clip holders are different. It's cool that TOMY still decided to reuse the old mold from the 1964 in 1973.
