They just arrived in Bachmann's warehouse. Hope they make your holidays extra merry. :) :) :)
I'm sure they will. :)
Someone, please post a picture of them the moment any of you receive them!! I want to see for myself!! Considering they're far too expensive for my taste (totally awesome I'm sure, but freaking expensive).
I got mine today from Reindeeer Pass Garden Supply(Kidman's in Des Moines). It is larger than I expected.

I plan to make it into a Stirling Single that it was based on, so the face will go.

We have a blizzard outside right now and I don't think Emily would make the 4' circle around my Christmas tree.
So does she run on two wheels (like the ones actually motorized, the big wheel and the small wheel next to it) like the HO scale model of her?
The big drive wheels and the set in front power it. Not sure about the HO, don't have any of that.
