Did anyone on here actually ever get one of these trains? You know the release last year with the camera's and control etc... from a mobile App?

Just curious to know what you thought of it etc...

I have seen several on the Japan auctions and they seeem to be going for considerably less than in Hobby search but I have not purchased one. Would like to have it but not bit the bullet.. Undecided

Would those you seen cheaper on Jauce even be cheaper than HobbySearch with all the added Fees and double shipping?

Possibly. The one I was watching was at about 4800¥ when I stopped watching it. Several were around 6,000¥. I think the one at hobby search was 11 or 13,000¥ and shipping probably would be close to 4,000¥ or more I would suspect. But the fees and shipping through Jauce will probably put it close.

Come on Ripley...take one for the team and dive in, Big Grin

this new one would be lots better than that original vintage one you picked up, don't ya think? Imagine having a video of your Xmas layout right from the cab of a train. You know you want to...... Angel

Haha.. yeah that is true, this one is likely far better that the old one. That one is pretty horrendous... Undecided

Why exactly did you stop watching one at 4800? I think that's a steal. That's less than half of the price on Amazon when I last checked. Keep in mind this isn't just another plastic Plarail train. It's almost always going to be significantly more expensive, used or new, due to all the extra stuff, like bogie wheels, built-in camera, and all that jazz

Yeah, it was at the time. I think there was a day or more left so I figured it would go up. I already had requested a shipment too and did not want to pay for the fees and shipping on it. Big Grin

I may still look into it though..

Thanks for the feedback guys, although it looks like nobody's got one yet, not even AC, with his penchant for video I thought he would have been foaming at the mouth to get one Big Grin

Figured I would piggie back on this thread. Looking for some translation or advice on how to use this thing.. lol. Here are some pics of the manual.

Nigel where did you get the app? I am not not seeing an easy way really to get it. ??
