MicroAce Keisei 3600

[Guest keio6000]

MicroAce Keisei 3600 seems to have been released.  I saw this photo:

 

 

should the small square 'lights' at the top left and right of the face be lit? they appear to be non-functional in the MA version which would be fine if not for the obscene amount they are asking for this set.

 

Toni - are you getting this one?

 

 

 

not clear to me from this image whether those are indeed red lights or what they are.

 

also, for the price they are charging, MA really needs to start makign tomix style tampo printed destination boards for the front and back.   no more shite waxy stickers!

Not getting this set atm, maybe later when the price drops. The square lights don't have to be lit, since other Keisei and Keikyu models also don't have these type of lights lit most of the time.

 

P.s. I'd be much more interested if the model were a pre-blue line addition model.

ah, the era of tokyu indistinguishability. :)

 

but i think you should fear not, ma will soon enough release a red stripe version.  for another 18000 yen or so.  not printing a blue stripe doesn't come cheap you know. 

 

for me the red and blue version is great, but the price....

incidentally, the blue stripe was printed on the ma model too low. if you look at the photo and compare you'll see it's obvious and can't be unseen.

Thanks for the video!   The running bits at the end are quite nice.
