With the release of the above model today in Hong Kong, I am curious as to how sales of this model will do. Whilst having bought a couple of 1/50 scale C'sM...
Hi Graham, I was also intrigued at this choice, particularly of a vehicle that many of the younger Hong Kong collectors will not remember personally. I'm sure...
Indeed it's a must have for the collection -- I wonder if Corgi will try to flog this casting to death by giving us a China Motor Bus version. Harry ... ...
I must say I am quite taken by this model, which considering I've only bought about 3 or 4 models this year is quite notable! Will Jotus be selling this one?...
I would assume that the KMB version has been commissioned by KMB or by a joint approach through KMB and 80M. A CMB version would be different (I guess) in that...
Joe, I did ask Joe at Jotus if they could reserve an Atlantean for me and there appeared to be no problem so hopefully it will appear on the website in the...
Hi All, Looking on 80m's site this afternoon I noticed that they're now showing the KMB BACo bodied Fleetline as a "coming Soon" model. Although its not the...
Hello everyone, I've just been on the 80m website. They are listing the Baco Fleetline as a forthcoming model. It's got all the styling of a house-brick, but I...
Not being an expert on UK 1/50 scale models, I question whether Corgi, or KMB, have chosen the right prototype vehicle to base the model on bearing in mind...
And long sought after as well. Makes one wonder what other new castings KMB will now consider, as the BaCo Fleetline was about the last of the vehicles on many...
My thoughts exactly (almost)...not so keen on the Fuso, but I have always been looking forward to the ones you have listed. Also, how about the KMB Dennis...
I'd be delighted to see the Dominator, although I guess this would only allow the one livery permutation, although at least two fleetname variations. My...
There doesn't seem as though there are many KMB types left unmodelled, though I did think the 12 metre 3N Dragon may have been modelled at some point, and the...
Apart from the Carlyle/Dart, which has yet to be seen in anything other than qbus form there are a few other possibilities, albeit more on the obscure side....
Hi Graham, That would be good - I was looking at some photos of these buses in Mike Davis' book and also in the evolution of HK Buses - Kowloon and New...
I received both sets of Public Light Buses this week in the same parcel, a sort of minibus invasion, after the type having never been modelled before (although...
Hi All, After talking about some of the buses that KMB could model the other day, I had a scan back through the messages and looked at some of our past...
Hi Joe, In March, on my last visit, KMB were still operating non aircon MCW Metrobus S3M's, Leyland Olympian S3BL's, Volvo Olympian S3V's (all 30 of them!) and...
Hi Donald, Good to hear some of the old stock is still running - always loved the red and cream KMB livery scheme. An S3M would make a great model, not just...
Joe, I would have though the KMB S3M can be produced with the blessing of KMB without problem, as it would be a brand new casting. The twelve metre 3M was an...
Hello, Yes I would be thrilled to see S3M and 3N/DL2-48 made into model form. A model for the small-windowed S3N would also be nice! I'm somewhat surprised...
Firstly isn't it a shame that we are resigned to only KMB providing us with any new model castings. Oh for a NWFB liveried SF! Cars Workshop appear to drive...
It would even be a step forward if NWFB would even consider another advertising model, such as the Environmental Protection livery portrayed on Trident 1092....
It is a pity that NWFB have all but stopped releasing models; An SF in fleet livery would be very welcome indeed - has Collectors Model ceased trading now...
I would like to add my voice for an S3M. While I'm at it, I wouldn't mind seeing a second model of the CMB MB class Metrobus. I still think that this model is...
Hi All, Just thought I would share my thoughts on this new arrival - in a word the model is excellent, and although we've all said that its not the most...
