ne of the great things
about this hobby of ours
is that it is continually
changing! There are always new
products, new accessories and
new innovations to look at and
the rate at which new kits keep
hitting the market certainly
gives you pause for thought. This
month we take a look at what will
be available to us modellers in
the coming year as David Francis
reports from his annual sojourn
to the Nuremburg Toy Fair,
where the great and the good had
their forthcoming attractions
on show. Some modellers will be
delighted and some disappointed
at what is on ofer, however, the
number of new releases planned
certainly shows that the hobby
of sticking plastic, etch and resin
together, and decorating it with
a plethora of paint choices and
decal options is still vibrant, and

still well supported, and long may
it continue. Here at SAMI we pride
ourselves in being able to bring
you all the latest news, reviews
and informed comment from the
scale aircraft modelling world,
and to that end we are going ‘fast
forward’ from our next issue
with a great new look both inside
and outside to your favourite
magazine. I don’t want to give
too much away at this point, but
suice to say we are all excited
about this, and we are looking
forward to bringing you the ‘new

look’ SAMI from the April issue.
In fact, to quote a old song from
by Timbuk3 ‘The Futures So
Bright I Gotta Wear Shades!’ But
returning to this month, I hope
that you enjoy all we have to ofer,
and that you ind that our Toy
Fair report whets your appetite
for the modelling year to come!
Happy Modelling

David Francis
