New Year, New Kits! 🎉 Scale Model Releases You Might Have Missed – December 2025 Roundup

Описание: In this episode, we’re kicking off 2026 by taking one last look back at the model kit announcements from December 2025 — and there’s plenty to get excited about. From tanks to helicopters, warships, a jet older than I am... and yes, even tubs filled with rocks (you'll see what I mean)!

I highlight the standout releases from brands like Meng, Eduard, AK Interactive, I Love Kit and RyeField Model, and more, and give you the inside scoop on what caught my eye and why. This roundup includes everything from WWII armour, modern helicopters, movie tie-ins, and even oddball gems that deserve your attention.

While technically from last month, these kits are what you'll be building in 2026—so let’s start the year off right by diving into what’s new, what’s weird, and what’s worth getting excited about.

Whether you’re a beginner, intermediate, or advanced modeller, this roundup has something for you.

📌 Chapters, links, and timestamps in the description.
💬 Let me know your favourite announcement — or if I missed something that blew your mind!

👇 And don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more updates, tutorials, and hobby inspiration throughout the year!
