This section gathers items that extend the catalogue or return to it after a pause. It differs from new releases in that these are not necessarily premieres – often they are things people looked for here earlier and did not find.
The record is arranged month by month, so you can read only the period you missed instead of working through one long list. What dominates a given month depends entirely on what came in, so the monthly summaries differ in character rather than repeating each other.
Detail sets, more than anything else. Resin parts carrying detail that a plastic mould cannot reproduce, etched brass for grilles, latches and instrument panels, self-adhesive masks for glazing, and decal sheets. Whole kits appear alongside them, and occasionally finished collector models for a cabinet. Because a detail set is always tied to a specific kit and scale, it is worth reading the full item designation rather than the product name alone – the scale and the intended kit are usually both in there.
The two summaries read quite differently, which is the point of splitting them: one month can be almost all brass, the next almost all resin. If you are searching by subject rather than by date, go straight to plastic model kits or to modelling supplies, where everything is sorted by type and scale and a detail set sits next to the kits it fits. Premieres have their own section in new releases, and items announced but not yet filed are in pre-orders.
