New Releases for May and June



Osaka City Subway, Midosuji Line Model 23

Making its first appearance as a Plarail train, the Midosuji Subway line has run through the heart of Osaka City since 1933. This is another release in Takara Tomy's series of light-up trains. As usual, the front car houses the switch that turns the lights on. The rear car has holes on the roof and holes on the rear which allow light in and give it the appearance of rear facing lights.



Tokyo Metro, Fukutoshin Line Series 10000


The Fukutoshin is a further addition to Tomy's Plarail line of light-up trains. This line is a new line of the Tokyo Metro subway system scheduled to be opened in June of 2008 and will connect the three city centers of Shinjuku, Shibuya and Ikebukuro.


The 10000 series is also packaged with the Tokyo Metro 7000 series as a separate set of two trains. The Tokyo Metro 7000 series runs along the Yurakucho subway line pictured above.



Subway Grand Station

Seemingly designed to be mated to Tomy's Dome Station, the Grand Station comes with a laundry list of features and accessories:

Subway Station Platform
Real Subway Station Lights and Sounds
Above-ground Plaroad street and rail area
Pla-kids
Functioning Elevator for Pla-kids

Together with other the Dome Station and other rail sections, you can create a truly EPIC setup.

Are we excited yet?
