That's not a bad distribution Rich. I'll have a look at a copy and see how it pans out.

sorry Rich, I don't agree. A general magazine should cover all bases each issue in my opinion. There are several specialist aircraft and military modelling magazines available, I get really fed up of hearing 'there are more aircraft models/modellers so there are more articles'. Ever heard of catch 22? Max Modeller magazine manages a much better spread of subjects and the Air/military subjects they do cover are pretty unusual ones. I'm not naive, it's got Airfix on the cover and Airfix adverts so it's not going to cover many cars and Trucks 'cos they don't make them (other than the odd unusual 1/32nd ex slot car turned kit - oh surprise, that was the one car subject) but if they want to call themselves a general modelling mag, that selection doesn't cut it in my view, sorry.

Looks pretty good to me - interested to note the kits reviewed werent only airfix but hopefully it will feature in depth articles on subjects other than aircraft in future issues.... trouble is, thats only going to happen if the mag succeeds - so go buy it
