    Hey all, My name Is John Lowry, I run a company called Royale Models. To date we have been doing 3d printed N scale trucks, parts, and decals. However I am going to be getting a larger 3d Printer soon and would like to expand into HO scale. My question is, What (from my current catalog) would you like me to bring ino HO Scale?

    If you are sticking to the truck theme, the first truck that comes to my mind is the International 9800 cabover. I always thought those looked cool in the Schneider National orange. Or maybe an International rear-engine school bus? In HO scale, it seems like everyone has the Herpa Bluebird model. It’s a recognizable model, so it gets old seeing it in everyone’s collection. An 90’s-ish era bus would fill the void between the Herpa bluebird and the newer Walthers CE. Or maybe not even a school bus. Transit buses would be cool too. Rapido has the New Look, but newer ones like articulated or Hybrid buses are not that common. European model companies make some, but a US outline model for big cities like Chicago or New York would be cool.

    Would be nice to see the crown School bus in ho or the Mack superliner or Mack F700.

    Great to hear that the ho is getting closer.
