Plarail Shinkansen Bullet Train Tomica McDonald’s Japan (2012)

The Plarail Shinkansen Bullet Train Tomica McDonald’s Japan (2012) is a collectible toy released as part of a limited-edition promotion by McDonald's in Japan, featuring miniature versions of Japan’s iconic high-speed trains from the Plarail and Tomica lines. Inspired by the famous Shinkansen, often called “bullet trains,” these toys were designed with bright colors, simplified details, and child-friendly proportions while still reflecting real train models like the N700 series. Made primarily of durable plastic with some rolling mechanisms, the toy could be pushed along surfaces or used with compatible Plarail tracks, encouraging imaginative play and early interest in rail transport. As part of a fast-food tie-in, it was typically included in Happy Meals, making it both a fun toy for children and a sought-after collectible among train enthusiasts and McDonald’s promotional item collectors.

The Shinkansen (新幹線?, new trunk line) is a network of high-speed railway lines in Japan operated by four Japan Railways Group companies. Starting with the Tōkaidō Shinkansen (515.4 km) in 1964, the network has expanded to currently consist of 2,387.7 km (1,483.6 mi) of lines with maximum speeds of 240–320 km/h (150–200 mph), 283.5 km (176.2 mi) of Mini-shinkansen lines with a maximum speed of 130 km/h (80 mph), and 10.3 km (6.4 mi) of spur lines with Shinkansen services. The network presently links most major cities on the islands of Honshu and Kyushu, with construction of a link to the northern island of Hokkaido underway.
