A Community Service Reminder - Finno - 07-27-2019
Folks just a reminder that no matter how tempted you may be, never use your Plarail trains as a comb or brush.
As per the warning I received from Takara Tomy included with my train today.

Thank you for your understanding with this matter.

I seem to remember Muddy using that as his avatar a while ago.
I definitely remember having to remove Diesel from my grand-daughter's hair, so maybe not such a pointless warning as you might think!

LOL...right up there with not using Hair Dryers and Toasters in the shower and bath.
I do think that this happens often with the little ones though but this still begs the question, as the little ones don't read this insert, if the parents have to be reminded then they have to have their Parents License taken away.

Bit like the packs of peanuts you get in the UK with a warning: "Warning This Product May Contain Nuts", sometimes I think the nanny state has gone too far, there is a reason that evolution has natural selection!!!

LOL...and the key word is...May...LOL

Oh yeah, this has happened more than once with my daughter. In fact, I’m pretty sure she took the warning as a suggestion!

perhaps a cowcatchers are needed on all motorized trains to prevent them stuck on children's hair lol

Carpet is actually a bigger enemy than hair. It doesn't seem like a big issue in Japan with Plarail though because carpet is less common inside homes.
I've been going through some of my engines that are more than 10 years old and they all have carpet fibres on the axles.

True, but it's still the ones full of curly hair that worry me most.

also avoid playing plarail toys when you have pets especially cats. They are curious creatures.
