in this episode of Beyond the Box, Mos & Alex talk (often in a very roundabout way!) about the factors that go into making a model kit suitable for a new modeller. In Hit, Miss or Twist, they go through their choices in the categories, holding to a self-imposed maximum price of £15 - not counting ebay specials! Do you agree with our assessments, and do you have suggestions of your own? We'd love to hear from you!

In this episode, Mos and Alex take a look at new releases that are NOT new toolings, and ask the question - What makes a new release "new"? Is it new parts, new decals, a new box, or just the fact that it's not been released for a while? In Hit, Miss or Twist, we examine some selections from the announced "new" releases from various model manufacturers in 2023 to give some personal examples of what we'...

Join us in this R-rated episode together with Lange and Nathan from the former Jaded Gamercast, where the pair share "brutal honesty" with a capital "F" regarding Spartan Games' recent flurry of manic activity after a long summer of little but HGC. Not for the faint hearted and definitely check with an adult before listening if you're a minor - Enjoy!
