Keihan limited edition Tetsudo Collection and B Train Shorty

[bikkuri bahn]

Posters seen at several Keihan stations over the weekend:

1. Keihan 80 series Tetsudo Collection available from 10/14 at selected Keihan Stations and Moriguchi Keihan Dept. Store only.

 

2. Keihan 60 Series Biwako-go B Train Shorty, availability same as above.

 

*forumers visiting Kansai this month may be interested in checking these items out.

Wow, these look good, especially the Tetsudo Collection one. If only these would be distributed to normal shops too. I'm still waiting for the Keihan 600 to appear.

The Keihan 60 Series Biwako-go B Train Shorty, really want one of these.

Looks amazing!!

[Densha]

I really shouldn't get into B-Trains so even if I would have the chance to get the 60 series I wouldn't. If it would have been a Tetsudo Collection it would have been another story. After a second look at the 80 series I want to get it even more.

I hope an opportunity will come for others to get them, and I don't know anyone living in Japan that could get and ship them either, not to forget that the person should live not too far too from the store. Let's hope they will release this in the other stores soon.

I think I'm getting jealous.

Oooh! That 80 Type looks so awesome! WANT!

Btw, if I computer translate the second comment one of the page I linked to it says:

"Well, I have been commercialized said limited companies will be expected general release."

Original:  まあ、事業者限定とはいえ製品化されたのですから、一般発売も期待しましょう。

I'll just post it like this, because computer translation often make no sense.

The 80 series looks excellent.

I think I've already seen one or two sets up for grabs on Yahoo Japan Auctions. Worth spending some time and looking for them.

In that case > http://auctions.search.yahoo.co.jp/search?auccat=0&p=%B5%FE%BA%E5%A3%B8%A3%B0&tab_ex=commerce&ei=euc-jp

But look at the prices.

I think the gist is "even though (now) it's a limited edition sold exclusively, it exists as a product, so let's hope (kitai) it gets a general release."

Ah, I didn't actually looked at the romaji from google translate, but now I see it. It's unfortunate, I really shouldn't add more useless nonsense talk.
