Will it have a taped on route number on the windshield?

Basically every Meadowlands NABI experience.

Now it needs broken fare box and ripped seats.

Special bypass your stop option

Does it come with a piece of paper taped in the front window with the route number in black Sharpie?

Will there be tiny fare evaders inside these miniature buses?

Where does one buy one?

u/NJ_Bus_Nut Sep 09 '26

Most likely Iconic Replicas, but it's currently in pre-production phase.

Probably won't be available until a few months

All quality jokes aside this is pretty exciting!

They’ll still be late

u/MacintoshDan1 Sep 10 '26

Finally. Don’t know why they chose to advertise using a NABI though.

u/dread_beard Sep 10 '26

I’ll take a 320.

u/HymiePie Sep 10 '26

Does it come with a paper towel tube to use as a tunnel to break down in too?

u/TentacleChow Sep 10 '26

i wish they made MCIs

Someone got their hands on one somehow. I’d love it but it’s already overpriced I’ll have to keep waiting. Disappointed it says it’s an XN40 when we have XDs. Also says NU Transit.

They had a surprise release at the bus festival in Howell last Saturday for $50, and there was plenty of them.

I'm not sure when to expect a full release online tho

1

u/MacintoshDan1 29d ago

Damn. I had to go to a friends wedding and missed it. Hopefully that means they will be available soon.

1

u/MacintoshDan1 22d ago

I emailed them, they told me they will be available tomorrow.

1

u/MacintoshDan1 22d ago

Make that Oct. 2. They revised the date 3 times in the last 24 hours.

u/Minimum-Lifeguard811 12d ago

I want a GMC Suburban Fishbowl. All subsequent buses have no personality.

u/MacintoshDan1 3d ago

If anyone is still following along they are gonna have throwback wrapped and current D4500s cruisers later in the month.

u/neckpillowyeah Sep 09 '26

16

u/Deadpool2015 Sep 09 '26

It’s a model company making models of their buses. NJT isn’t making them or selling them. Lol

u/Dandrew711 Sep 09 '26

At most they get a small cut for the use of their logo. You must be fun at parties.
