Tenshodo HO 6-car set Shinkansen 500 ( Got a New Toy TODAY )

[Toy Maker]

Just bought this IMPOSSIBLE to find (6-CAR) set !!!!   :grin

It should be on its way over from Japan this week.

I can't wait to have my set back. I never should have sold the 1st 16-car set I had...

Yeah Toy Maker doesn't own any HO track to run trains on, "JR 500系" I think he just owns enough to display his JR500s on.  I personally don't get why people buy these expensive trains just to look at. But he buys these really nice Tenshodo JR500s and doesn't run them and resells them after a while. Although he did recently get another one from Japan and told me on facebook he is thinking of custom painting it in EVA colors and its going to be the first EVA train in HO. He said he might sell it to if he ends up making it.
