the blue and white cover of the jewel case for the first and only digital plarail vehicle expansion pack, with the included fire truck, ambulances, tow truck, and highway patrol car shown at an angle

i have all of digital plarail (and most of digital tomica) now

several pc cd-rom boxes spread on a grey carpet in an arc. the top row has the original larger release of the base digital plarail game, the first three expansions in slim cardboard sleeves, and the first boxed expansion with jewel case inside as well as the thomas the tank engine combination pack with the first licensed expansion alongside the base game as well as separate copies of the two thomas packa in boxes. the second row contains two digital plarail and tomica dx hard plastic cases with the player's guidebook with demo cd sitting on top as well as the third train expansion, the only building pack, and a copy of the first thomas expansion in its jewel case. the bottom row has a few copies of both digital plarail and tomica in their jewel cases. the covers of the boxes show the trains or accessories included

the whole idea that you need to "have something worth saying" before you put yourself out there or make a little page, is backwards. running a little site, like human expression, is about just being you, being dumb, being creative for no reason! there doesnt have to be a grand purpose. be stupid

When it rains, it pours Gundam merchandise, in this Asahi Graph photo-essay from 1981: the peak of the Gundam phenomenon. This was the room of a high schooler who ran a fan club. Much of this stuff is worth a small fortune now.

i'm driving the tohoku joetsu shinkansen

a picture of a somewhat beat-up box of the plarail 1984 radio control i'm a driver tohoku joetsu shinkansen set. the box has a light blue stripe across the top with the title of the set and one down the left with the contents. a rectangle shows the contents of the set, a radio control 200 series shinkansen on an oval layout with tunnel, station, and accessories. the rest of the box shows a much larger promotional setup with the set incorporated into the center, with many shaking blue train tracks traversing around through stations and up bridges with different colorful three-car japanese trains populating them

goodbye yellow brick road has gotta be in my top five albums somewhere

this is about you, still-sealed low-serial-number plarail fan club exclusive 40th anniversary album that i bought because it was a good price but cannot bring myself to open

a black box that is open to reveal five plarail trains, a yellow and black fictional steam locomotive and a red european-style steam engine with yellow freight cars, reproductions of less-common color variations of early plarail trains, a black japanese d-51 steam locomotive with two blue passenger cars, a three-car 0-series shinkansen with lit nose cone, and a more true-to-life color variant of the 500 series shinkansen than was in the regular plarail range at the time

the top of the box at an angle with the protective thin translucent sheet on top, surrounded by other train toys with a tomix n scale train pack and an early 1970s plarail box featuring four small freight cars

i pulled a second controller out of one of my thomas sets, i'm supposed to get a bunch more tomix stuff in the mail tomorrow but i probably won't set any of it up until next weekend

a tomix model train set up on carpet, a figure eight with elevated curves and a red truss bridge forming the cross of the eight sits to the left of an oval with two wired switches connecting them, a yard with a few more unpowered switches hold stationary trains while a green and orange tokai type train cross the bridge and a black steam locomotive with freight cars rounds the oval

oh right. i also daily drive one of these

an ibm model f keyboard, the type used with the original ibm pc and pc xt in the 1980s. it has a qwerty layout for its primary keys but other portions differ from modern keyboards such as ten function keys instead of 12 arranged in two columns to the left of the main keyboard instead of in one row above, the numeric keypad being jutted right up against a tall, skinny enter key and the right side of the keyboard, with an asterisk/print screen key below enter with a wide delete, zero, and the capslock key taking up the rest of the space where a set of arrow keys would typically appear. on the other side of the wide space bar is the alt key where control typically sits today, with control in place of caps lock

fallinsideahole @fallinsideahole.com · 10/01/2025

huh, if i actually post things then people can actually interact with them. if you haven't checked it out, i am often adding more japanese toy trains to my website www.fallinsideahole.com/updates.html

three silver subway-style trains pass each other on a multi-level plastic plarail train set, with two trains on a two-track elevated line and a third on the lower line that travels under the upper lines. a grey road system curves along the inside of the lower track with a red suv turning the corner

a loop of several track sections making up a small plastic thomas the tank engine set. several engines sit at various points around the oval, some with carriages trailing behind. the track sections are mostly green and brown and have trackside accessories like stations, a water tower, and a cow. one track section includes a turntable and siding and another has a red drawbridge

the cover of a 1980s plarail set featuring the white and green 200 series shinkansen. the box is mostly yellow with a cartoon train traveling through a green countryside background at the bottom and blue clouds around the three plastic windows showing the three cars of the included train

an old green plarail electric commuter train, curved to show the yellow wheels and two unpowered cars trailing the lead power car, with metal power switch hanging out the front

fallinsideahole @fallinsideahole.com · 10/01/2025

started playing with some of my japanese n scale trains

an n scale (small) model train track set up on a carpeted floor. the main portion of the track forms a figure eight with sloping curves leading to a trestle bridge crossing the perpendicular lower track. a switch track leads over to another loop of track. some boxes, loose track, and trains in plastic cases sit around the track. a silver electric locomotive with lit headlights pulls a blue passenger train up the back of the figure eight heading towards the bridge. a steam locomotive sits on the branch connecting the figure eight and the loop

similar to how you can get to the mute word menu directly from any post you should be able to mute or block the poster od any post directly instead of having to go throigh to their profile. the options could even go in the same profile picture-accessed menu

i have three game boys in the box and two of them don't even count

three cardboard boxes on a carpet, from left to right: the japanese box for the super game boy, featuring a rainbow-backed illustration of a stylized super game boy cartridge; the pink hello kitty-covered box of a japan-only pink game boy pocket with hello kitty's face and sanrio graphics as well as a pack in game; and the box for the japan-only super game boy 2, showing the translucent blue cartridge at an angle with both a red and green led shining through the plastic

i have gotten into the habit of buying most reasonable-looking pedestrian hifi vcrs priced under 10 bucks because i suspect i will only continue to see them less frequently in the future and there's a nice spot in the late 90s where they often just work

what the fuck do you mean tumbling fishing choo choo

a colorful plastic train toy with an odd looping track and little black steam locomotive of one of the common types of mall kiosk and tourist trap type "tumbling loco" toys. this version incorporates a large platform turntable at one of the reversing loops of the toy that has a version of the traditionally wind-up magnetic fishing game that instead only operates while the train is actively traveling around that portion of the loop

thrifting today, an old robotix set from milton-bradley, linux in a box, some vhs tapes and a few eight tracks from artists you might actually want to listen to (and one of the ford quad demo tapes)

a spread of items on a carpet including a robotix plastic construction set, a copy of open linux in a white and yellow box, several vhs tapes including an episode of star trek: the next generation and three herbie the love bug movies, and four eight track tapes

aerosmith's night in the ruts, yes' going for the one, and ringo starr's ringo on eight track tape

a robotix plastic construction set with its box lid above its open inner tray of parts. the components vary in size and mostly follow a black and grey color scheme, a motor unit and battery box, and a sci-fi theme (and greebling)

fallinsideahole @fallinsideahole.com · 17/11/2024

i have probably bought too much plarail the past few days but i will hopefully have an old power yamanote line green 103 series and an old panorama express with two extra intermediate cars and the hikari version of the 30th anniversary set and the sound steam d51 set and. . . coming
