Kato's 50th Birthday 1965-2015


Recommended Posts

Only available directly at/from the Hobbycentres in Tokyo and Osaka.

Until we all go out of our way at great expense to aquire one, then they will make them available for general release. :)

20 minute train ride and a 10 minute walk at either end for me ;)

 

They will also sell them by mail order, though no idea whether they're set up for overseas orders.

Does seem that they'll have spent an inordinate amount of money on tooling something for such a limited production run. Plus they seem to be quite fond of older short EMUs at the moment...

 

RTR version to come, maybe? Put a different running number on it if you're worried about offending the collectors.

That is fine since they are charging above the going rate for these.  Static model + motor unit = 7800 yen.  And since they are only in house sales, there is no discounting on the items and full profits also without the retailer's cut of the pie.
