The Keisei Group Hokuso Railway 7500 series, which originally came out in October 2010 in a limited edition of 3000 units, will be re-released on October 27th. I don't know whether the box will be different, this is the original, now a seriously rare collectors item.

wont be really rare now I guess
@Super, I think you should make a new Thread for the new releases because I don't really see much of the blue fellow here, this is mostly normal Plarail releases, and I'm not trying to criticize anyone, just trying to keep BPT more organized

Keisei trains (aside from the Skyliner) can get pricey.  You can always find Keikyu, Toei trains for an affordable price but man, congrats to those who have many Keisei plarail trains in their collection.  Even this year's 3100, people selling online want a lot for it.  I should have gotten it while it was still under Y4000.

But curious to see how much people will sell on eBay or Amazon after release

Rare in the sense that it rarely comes up for sale BNIB and when it does it costs a lot. Rare in the sense that we know that only 3000 were made.

This thread was started in February 2014, and was used exclusively for Thomas-related news until December 2017 and post #317 on page 32, since which time non-Thomas Plarail releases were increasingly lumped in as well. I go with the flow. You are by no means the first to make such a suggestion.

Plarail Tokyo Station Marunouchi
I had no idea that this station comes with consumer applied detail stickers. I had always assumed that all the detailing was painted and embossed.

On the box I see the Plarail logo as used in the Plarail Real Class series. Well, at least now that it is part of that series, this station should be painted/embossed, and without applying any stickers. And how many stickers does it have? Twenty?  Confused

It does have a new box, and again it's a limited edition of 3000.  There's a picture on X of the queue at 6:00 am.
