Recruiting Plarail researchers to operate in my team

Has your team considered the following situation which frequently occurs with Plarail:

Designed/manufactured in 1967 --> "Released" to market via distributors as planned in 1968 December --> Accessible/sold/marketed in January 1969

This actually very common for Plarail products. There have been many cases in the past 10 years where products "released" at events could not be delivered until January of the year after.

Very interesting, and good question to ask. However I know the definite answer that the events are not in December.

According to this image, the settlement month is changed to September from 1956. So this means it was January to December from 1953 to 1956, then the fiscal year of TOMY started on October of 1956 as stated in the second bullet point. This means that the events do not happen on December, rather happening on October instead.

Thanks plarnold for asking a very smart question nevertheless!
