Vintage Set I have Not Seen Before - Super - 08-04-2016
Didn't think there was much left from Plarail/Tomy that I hadn't seen before but here is one. By the looks of the price might be an indication of its rarity and why I haven't seen it before. I like the looks of a high rise building/station with bus route but I don't see if the bus is motorized although I have to assume so. I have been looking for a motorized bus for a while and this one would fit the bill but not at that price.

Thank you Plarnold for the information, 1974 is vintage for sure. Does it say if the bus is motorized?

Ouch now that is expensive, but as you say very rare I would think at that age, I mean that's what 42 years old. I notice the road track is blue as well rather than the grey we're used to these days

I just noticed this other vintage set, even more expensive but with what was possibly the first Tomy monorail;

OMG...I looked at that posting from the same seller and thought it was the elevator set that I had seen before but now I see it is not, you are right, it looks to be a little monoral on the yellow track.
