What did you order or the post deliver? (Japanese N Gauge)

[bc6]

Just a few things from RG-ROKKO arrived today.

I think this is my first set of Koki from TOMIX that I've ever purchased. 

Since I have a D51-498 I may as well get some coal cars to go with them right. 

This is a pretty cool kit, Its a rail carrier kit from World Kogei J.R. Tokai Series KIYA97 Blank Rail Truck. I document it fully with links to another site on my blog.

Finally, I missed a delivery from USPS from Hobby Search.

I love antique bookstores in Japan, as I've said time and time again. Literary treasures can be found cheaply and more often than you think! 😄
Today at a book festival in my town I found this and immediately snatched it up for only 3,000 yen! Can you tell what my favorite pages are? 🌸

My Plaza Japan order arrived:

• Kato 23-500 Toyota Autos (Crowns) x 2
• Tomix 4255 Convenience Store (Daily Yamazaki)
• Tomytec (Building 161) Shinto Shrine Set B
• Tomytec (Building 162) Shinto Shrine Accessory set
• Kato 23-600A Hino Town Bus Poncho Yellow and Blue Sky
• Tomix 4236 Convenience Store (Seicomart)

Total was 22,616 JPY including EMS shipping, and I had to pay an additional $26 CDN for PST, GST and Canada Post handling ($10).  No duty or brokerage charges.  I got the usual Plaza Japan eraser, and this time a fan (not in the picture).  Ordered September 9th and arrived September 16th to the door.  Half that time was in Canada to go less than 200 kms 😁

 

I did get an email noting I would not be able to re-order the Kato Crown's or the Daily Yamazaki as they were now out of stock, and not expected to be re-run (at least any time soon).  However they were good prices, and getting N scale Japanese vehicles can get expensive.

 

The Shinto shrine kits will be a focus of one of my T Track modules while every Japanese layout has to have multiples of konbini's (Japanese convenience stores), sort of like the Starbucks at every corner here in North America.  And the 4255 was half the price of the 4236 so seemed a good deal.
