Brilliant Buses (aka B&B)

On 5th September 2023, this new name in model buses posted a photograph of a prototype 1/76 scale resin Volvo B12 with Jonckheere bodywork on its Facebook page.  I was unaware of this post at the time and it was not until September 2024 that I discovered the company was planning to release three Singapore liveried 3-door ADL 'facelift' Enviro500s.   In January 2025 I came across photographs of several Citybus versions of the Volvo B12 and after carrying out some research, discovered the company's Facebook page, where it confirmed, back in November 2023, that owing to licensing problems, it was no longer accepting orders for the Citybus liveried examples, but did release three  versions of a plain white model.  I am reliably informed that ten variants with Citybus liveries were released in September 2024, along with three white examples. If you can provide details of any models not listed below, please e-mail me.
