Nice I have the same exact buses but (2 Liberty Lines buses and 2 Triboro buses). Corgi was probably the best in terms of quality for models. Off the top of my head I also have:

 

Pennsylvania Railroad fishbowl

AC Transit Fishbowl

DC Transit Fishbowl

Grey Hound Fishbowl (LIRR & Subway)

Grey Hound Fishbowl (To World Fair)

Grey hound Scenic cruiser to New York

Golden gate Transit Fishbowl

Chicago Fire Dept Fishbowl (This was very nice and I believe a low number were made)

 

Street Cars

 

Brooklyn

NJ Transit

SEPTA

 

Safety Car

 

Steinway Lines

 

In regards to the green NYCT fishbowl I have yet to find one now. They use to show up sometimes a couple years ago but now I haven't even seen them. I would try ebay if anything and keep looking. You probably know this but the price for that one will most likely be three digits. But hey you may get a it for a steal. I remember I tried finding an LL fishbowl and I actually found one for 30 bucks. So anything can happen. Have you heard of any new models coming out? I haven't checked in the longest time.

Transit Guy I have not heard anything regarding new buses yet. I hope they would make a Queens Surface and a Jamaica Bus so that I can have the whole New York City collection. I saw the Green NYCTA bus but missed the end of the auction it went for $70 bucks but I'm still waiting to catch it again. I want to have them with my subway and railroad collection. Hope fully I'll find it but if I hear any release from Corgi i'll let you know.

Got some school buses overhauled to (MTA). Bus 756 and 755 are at the ENY CMF for Decaling and are headed to FP. Also the striped RTS is now RTS 8001 painted it a special Metro livery for (MTA) along with 8201, 8204 and 8399 all at ENY. 8201 was JBL 579 until it was changed to 8201. Also have a new paper nabi bus model demo for (MTA) as well as three out of the four Nabi buses that I made out of Magnets done. buses 6909-6910 and 6912 are done. 6911 is still waiting for destionation signs. All nabis to ENY.
