The “It’s Super’s Fault” Lot - Part 2 - TnA!!!

[ripley802]

As mentioned in Part 1, Super helped me out and I ended up winning a “few” other lots to have shipped with the one single train I had initially won..lol..

This is the “TnA” lot.

Talking Action Percy and Gordon with boxes. This leaves me needing Toby for the complete set of them.

[Super]

The boxes look in pretty good condition.

Yeah, the boxes are pretty good for their age. Gordon looks to be in nice condition, probably needing a gear, but Percy has some heavy corrosion.. both were nicely shipped with all 3 batteries still in tact.

That's awesome!! If anyone should have a complete T'nA collection it is you!!
Congratulations

Don't you just hate it when they ship these things with the batteries in place? Aside from the danger of the batteries bursting it also means even more outrageous shipping charges lol!

As for the corrosion, have you seen these 'fibre glass' pens that you can get specifically for cleaning up terminals etc? I saw them in a hobby shop the other day and bought one as the concept makes sense, just have to see how effective they are

Thanks Nigel. I have not seen those but yeah it would be interesting. The issue with mine though are the terminals are basically gone, most snapped off, etc..

Damn I hate that, I feel the sellers should at least warn you if they are that badly corroded...
