  what a joke - Tibs Shop selling HK bus models but none of its own co. livery bus models , books, etc. but this shop might better survive by selling online instead.

  Producing a bus model is not easy and it doesnt come cheap. With such a small market over in SIngapore, where do you find ppl who buy the models ? SBS did came out with the VOs. And from what i see, the demand for them wasnt that good as compared to other countries like HK and UK.

  although Spore market is small, what about marketing Spore bus model to other countries like HK, Japan, UK etc? or is it bus fans there are only interested in their own country's buses and not overseas buses like Spore buses?
  
  even the HK, and European bus models have made their way to Spore market; but why not our country's buses?
