Soo cute soo tempting Dave! Must resist dipping into z!

If someone did a good range of Z Shinkansen I would have a hard time not jumping in... imagine something like N-Trak in Z built around Shinkansen modeling.

don`t forget my shinkansen blades on my right arm and nankai rapit shaped chest plate

 

 

ken there is a few shinkansens out there in z bit rare now. The glass boxes by proz are amazing shame they are shying away from z Gauge as it was truly amazing there line up.

 

I think they needed to put more effort into building up the brand but they didn`t and yes i think a shinkansen would have boosted their sales.

 

I really think an e6 / e7 running loops on one of their display dioramas would look fantastic. or a doctor yellow :D

The ProZ dioramas are using the smallest possible radiuses for these commuter trains and the inner loop is even too tight for some older Z scale rolling stock. Any shinkansen would look bad on them and would have to use conventional truck mounted couplers. It's doable, but Tokyo Marui has a completly different product profile and adding new trains and turnouts was not an option. On the other hand, Rokuhan took up the business right from where Tokyo Marui left it. The japanese Z scale market is right at the same level now where the N scale was in the early 1970-ies, but has a much stronger competition from other scales.

still the models marui did are amazingly detailed for the size. i bought one for myself. seria or daiso sell plastic display cases for 108 yen and this model should fit in, i was thinking to d/c the motor and have it it on the shelf lit up using a self made battery pack to power it.
