I wonder if it will be motorised? If not, will it be compatible with the Tomitec chassis? 😁

done, visa will be calling soon to verify the $950k charge. They are giving you a discount for ordering a dozen.

It's a steal. I'll add on a big tip!

Yeah, got a few of those kicking around. Was thinking of throwing them up on the Classifieds - For Sale or Trade thread. 🤣

I'll wait until they become available on Yahoo Auctions for about half the price, you never know I might get lucky and get surprise interior lighting.

 

Disappointing they aren't releasing intermediate cars though, will be difficult to put together like a prototypical formation.
