Package from Japan

6 Replies, 7704 Views

Its been a very long time since I had the fun of opening a package from Japan. I learned from Gerisplarail1 that you have to get these rare, event exclusive when you start seeing them but not too early. Prices are high right off the bat and come down a bit after but these are offered by those who buy them from the Plarail Expos just for selling them. Problem is that the collectors end up buying them and they tend to keep them in their collection so the availability to purchase a set dries up quickly. The trick is getting one at a decent price before they are gone.

This, new in box from the 2015 Japan Plarail Expo is a highly detailed 3 unit Monorail and a great improvement from their other over rail Monorails including the Disney ones, as they have corrected the wobble. You can see the difference in Suzukawas video here, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7__KHDNZL4
Also had to have extra rail holder clips in order to complete a the big loop in our layout. This won't be in our next video but should be seen in the video after that. Also in the package from Japan are some various other layout goodies. Will have one other box coming from Japan as soon as I find a couple more items to add to what I already have in the warehouse before once again locking down the account until the next new items appear.

Super I'm not quite sure what you mean by "real replicas over or under"...but as far a Disney goes, I'm not a big fan of Walt Disney at all, and the only reason I have any
Disney in the collection is they seem to have a monopoly on the Western Steamer design...Sad
Play nice & have fun!!Smile
Hi Muddy

By replicas I mean like models of actual monorails from Japan like the one above. And over or under means the monorails that run on top of their rails like the one above or ones that hang under their rails.
Ahhh...they're pretty cool...Idk maybe one day...
Play nice & have fun!!Smile
