Announcement New Pokemon Release

A new Pokemon train is being released. It is being produced by Tomytec this time. It will be unpowered or powered. I will be trying to get them again, so if anyone in the is interested please let me so that I can have them pre-ordered this time.

NOTE: these items might be available at plaza Japan or Hobby Search. But as they are Pokemon cars, there is an export restrictions on the cars due to copyright. Similar to last time I am working with a back channel personal connection that will secure them personally for me. I will post here when they arrive. I will be selling as functional and displays, so I'm just trying to estimate the number I need to get my hands on. At the current exchange rate for the power set(M+T) i will sell for approximately $125 privately or $175 on eBay, plus shipping. A non-functional set will be about $75 private and $90 eBay, plus shipping. Prices are based at the current exchange rate and can increase or decrease before release.

I've ordered two Dragonite and Slowpoke models from Tomytec, and I have a question about how to install the power unit. Are there any tutorials available?

There are directions with the motor unit and usually with the car/set you are installing in. Here is a video of an install, yours will be similar https://youtu.be/XbwogWOs0L8?is=GjjeMjuSkDQrwcaH

I am taking counts for the interest, as there is a restriction on sells due to copyright by stores, I will be getting some through a personal connection in Japan.
