Hi all,
I got back from Japan a few weeks ago. Although I didn’t manage to find any
sets exclusive to Japan, I spotted two quite rare sets in exceptional condition.
The name of the store is Toy Park, I believe, and it’s in Tokyo. Click
here for a picture
of the store front.
In the store, I saw a 4558 Metroliner + 4547 Club Car wrapped together in
plastic. It retailed for $300+ CDN. There was also a 4563 Load N Haul
Railroad. I don’t remember the price. I can’t guarantee that they are MISB
because of the plastic wrapping. Click
here for a picture
of the sets.
I didn’t buy these sets myself because I already have them (as well as the
Metroliner reissue). I can’t justify spending $$$ just to obtain MISB copies.
A word of warning though, I saw these sets back on July 16th. I make no
guarantees that they are still available! So don’t blame me if you spend $1000
on a ticket to Tokyo to buy these sets, only to find that they’ve been snatched
up! Also, the pictures are 200K+ in size...
Good luck!
-Bryan
