I rescued my TOMIX 98487 from USPS
After back and forth trying to get my Yahoo auction win delivered I decided to go to the post office and liberate my package, Now it's safely in my hands.

New GreenMax JR103 series Kansai type Kumoha 103/Moha 102
I got my first JR103 kit from GreenMax its a pretty nice kit with no painting needed. Just add the details bogies, Glass, decals and you're done. Not quite you need to drill some holes and fit the glass into the cabin. It's pretty involved for a noob like me but it came out pretty decently. All I need is a motor unit to go with it and I'm in happy land. Below are some build pics of the JR103 Series from GreenMax.
