New Special Hobby models to be released in 2023

So the final day of the Nuremberg Toy and Model Fair is over. It was rather quitet day really, unlike those before it when I sometimes even had not had the chance to gulp something down the whole day. The Sunday was really different so I also found some time to start penning down first few thoughts for the February Newsletter. The new items to be available this month are already being completed and boxed so that all of them could become available by the 10th. This time, we have for you as many  as five injection moulded new kits. And we also need to satiate your hunger for any planned releases - so the almost complete list is here for you, just scroll down. Why only almost complete? We must keep a few things unveiled so you might be pleasantly suprised later :-)

Dear business friends,      The Nuremberg fair is over now. Despite some chaos in the organisation before the start of the fair, we can say we are quite satisfied with our participation and the fair itself. Compared to last year, the first post-covid year, the exhibitors were much more plentiful this year. Many more traders and distributors also arrived at the meeting. So we practically did not have the chance to stop for a while. This, of course, filled us with optimism as it was nice to meet you all in person. When I write about personal meetings, I was most impressed by meetings with colleagues from Ukrainian companies. War is terrible. It's one thing to watch it from the comfort of your home on TV news, and another to hear about personal experience with Russian missile and drone attacks on civilian targets. Working and creating kits in such conditions is extremely difficult. I hope that Ukraine will receive much more aid than it is receiving today and that European politicians ...

Dear Business Friends,    In the September instalment of Special Hobby Newsletter, you are going to read about only one large scale model, the 1/32 Fiat G.50bis that comes in the bomber and navalized versions. All the other model kits are in 1/72 scale, and these are the P-40N fighter that sports very attractive schemes, really very colourful inter-war B-12A bomber as well as the re-issue of our 1/72 scale SMB.2 French jet fighter.    The detailing sets for this month contain the third set for our 1/48 SF-260 nice little kit (the two previous sets became available last month), the most interesting of the new sets is the wide variety of new details for ICM's 1/48 scale B-26B Marauder kit. Some more sets for this model are to be announced in October.     Not a long while ago, our range of model kits got a nice addition in the form of the 1/72 SH72505 F-84F Thunderstreak ‘Reborn Luftwaffe’ model. Each one of this kit also contained a real fragment of the F-84F that crash-landed on our...

Dear Business Friends,     Now you have received this year's penultimate Special Hobby Newsletter. Among all the new releases this month, you will also find the DB-7 Havoc Mk.I Intruder kit set. And this kit does show very well why we love our work. It is not just about producing and selling the scale model kits, an important part of our jobs is also in finding tiny pieces of history, half forgotten stories and facts and fixing some long living mistakes. And this mentioned kit is just such one that has now the chance to put some errors of the past to a new light. In addition, we managed to combne the stories of some very brave airmen with actual Havoc airframes. Other of this month's kits are also worth your attention. Following last month's Boomerang, now the 1/48 Wirraway is here again on the offer in a new boxing. We have also prepared a re-release of the 1/48 AH-1G Cobra, now wearing very attractive US Navy and marines liveries.    Let us also mention very interesting s...
