Hi everyone-
I'm StarSwitcher07 (usually found as TheStarSwitcher, or Epi). I'm a diehard Tugs fan, and have been slowly building a collection over the course of five years, to the point where the collection is considered one of the biggest Tugs collections in the world, with many unique items from the UK and Japan 🙂. I been into Thomas since day 1, and always grew up with the Wooden Railway, the movies, other toys, and obviously the Tomy/Trackmaster engines.
I always been intrigued by the Wooden Railway, but it hasn't been until recently where I've been getting a gripe towards the Plarail field of collecting. Considering I have years of experience of importing from Japan to the US, I thought it would be really cool to get into Plarail collecting. In July of this year, I managed to score a boxed Giant Thomas set with the old box in great condition for only $50 from a local site. In August, I got a Plarail Gator/Marion pack as a gift, and been on-and-off Plarail news since. Then of course Muddy's video of the Gold Thomas pops up on my feed, and here I am squealing that the thing is even real haha! Explored his wonderful channel and got really inspired by his collection, and Ucwepn's layouts. Thought it would be fun to get into the amazing realm of Plarail collecting, and since I recently won a lot which has almost all the Talk N Action engines, I'm pretty hype to see where the runaway Plarail train leads me next! Looking forward to chatting with all of you! 😃
