Or u can oso buy e orginial ones at sentosa cable car towers.

get 1 imitation tibs bendy bus as well for $9.90 (painted w e old tibs bus colour)

Superbus SG

That's right. The SBS Transit Superbus models are also available at all Nikko Shops; branches at HarbourFront, Suntec City Mall, Wisma Atria and Changi Airport Terminal 1. They cost much more expensive though.

I do not recommend buying those cheap SBS/TIBS models, manufactured by Nikko themselves.

the $20 bus models is not so nice compared to the $100 nbus models.recommend u buy the $100 models. Smile

sbs&tibs SG

That day I go ComfortDelgro to by the 2 bus model aka Twin Pack for $98.

BonJovi SG

That day? When was tt? Now still selling? At Braddell there arh? Wads the scale of the model ar? hee....sorrie.. so many question Neutral

BonJovi SG

How much is Nikko selling the twin pack btw arh?

sbst275 SG

Not Corp Comm, just ask the guard that you want to buy bus/ NEL models

Actually, you can just go to any NEL/ SBST Int to buy the Nite 'Owl', SBS/ SBST plastic (Thanks to SuperBus note below) model and the NEL model

sbst275 SG

Yes, ComfortDelgro is their lau pei

The DD model is $90+ (If I could remember) for the pair... The NEL model is $75. The owl, cannot remember... You can also find them in HK...

Actually, they wanted to cme out LA models in 1990's

Superbus SG

I'm not too sure of the exact price, but it should not be more than $150. There are 4500 Twin Packs produced, so there should be sufficient stocks with SBS Transit.

They are die-cast models, not acrylic. Saw this under the models,

My Twin Pack models have the serial number: 0797
