Mirage F.1 built by Marco Rondelli

Marco Rondelli has finished his another take on the Special Hobby Mirage F.1, this time in the form of an IRIAF airframe wearing a fancy coat of blue and pale grey. Trés chic, is it not?

Some of the models and sets which were mentioned in the previous instalment of our monthly Newesletter are going to be presented to the readers now, in the October Special Hobby Newsletter. And our team are working hard on the others. We have also decided on unveiling two more projects which are currently in development – these being a pair of Italian WW2 fighter aeroplanes, the Reggiane Re 2000 Falco and Reggiane Re 2005 Sagittario, both in the quarter scale. We expect they can appear on the shop shelves in very early 2020. Both these kits will reach the standards of our latest 1/48 scale models such as the Siebel Si 204, ie with 3D-designed components produced from milled moulding tools. And now, as it seems, these very types are also being worked on by other model companies – but to be honest we are not afraid of this unintended  confrontation, being quite sure of the still-increasing levels of quality of our recent models. And what is in the pipe line before the Italians come out?…

The end of yet another year is inevitably coming. It has been long thirty years now since the so-called Velvet revolution in our country, the event which marked the end of the cruel communist regime in November 1989. After a long period of darkness, we were able to return to a free life and began to rebuild democracy, once again in our post-war history. And although the very first model kits bearing the now famous MPM logo on their boxes had begun to appear on the shop shelves back in 1989, the MPM company was officially established only the next year, in 1990. So in 2020, we are going to celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of MPM (now Special Hobby) in the model industry. 
   But first things first, it is the time now to announce the new models we have prepared for the this December. After some delay, we are happy to be able to bring you the 1/72 CV-707 Vesikko (SN72004), a model of the Finnish WW2 submarine. But what seems to be really the most important amongst the December new i…

Throughout February, our end customers kept their eye on our social media much closely than they had before. And this is just very humble description. We put it down to the ever increasing levels of accuracy and quality of our models which goes hand in hand in the increased customers‘ interest in them. The information we published at the time of the Nuremberg toy fair only supported this. If it is going to be reflected in the number of orders, we do have something to look forward to. And especially the colleagues in the warehouse and packing centre.  Our new 1/72 Heinkel He 162 Spatz was heavily on the radar of businessmen, journalists and the modellers themselves at the event, while the SMB2 Super Mystere / Sa’ar Duo Pack & Book was among the most watched upcoming projects. However, our March Newsletter is not just bringing information on these two models, we have a new Special Mask addition to our range as well as a lot of new resin detail sets, three of which cater for the n…
