hbr245b Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 I've fancied getting a Tomix 923 Type Shinkansen Dr. Yellow - I see that Hobby Store in Japan has the 3 car set available and the 4 car add-on as a June re-release (but waiting list closed). The release date of the 3 car base set (according to Hobby Store) is December 2002 - does that mean that the stock they have has been sitting on their shelves for 5 and a half years? Or is that the original release date and the trains currently on sale have been manufactured more recently? Link to comment
Martijn Meerts Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 I don't think Tomix usually waits 5 years to re-release a set, especially not one as popular as Dr. Yellow. Even so, the add-on re-release will work just fine with the base set coupler wise if that's your main issue? If the coupler changes, or they change something else on a train, they tend to give them new article numbers. Link to comment
