Daiso 100 yen shop Pla Rail Wannabe Shinkansen and tracks.

[gmat]

Noticed at the Daiso 100 Yen shop next to Shimokitazawa. Haven't bought any yet but the 700, Dr. Yellow and a third one come in three separate packs, front. middle and end cars. No dorsal fins. The tracks are gray in color and are flat, curved and raising. They also have a road crossing section, a station and viaducts for elevated tracks. There seems to be more listed on the poster next to the rack, including a tunnel, I believe.

 

Not as nice as the wooden Brio Wannabes from several years back. 

 

Best wishes,

Yes.

 

The track is not compatable with real plarail though

 

Also the trains last about 1 week with children and never work again.

 

Well at least with my children lol

Keitaro,

How did they breakdown? Did the wheels fall off or are they motorized? The earlier Brio types are still working fine.

Not sure to be honest just don't run changed the batteries still doesn't go. Connections look fine though

Thanks,

I should buy a bunch and give them the 'kid test' to see how mine will fare.

I'm kind of being pulled in several directions, moneywise.
