Kits I Didn’t Know I Needed! | February 2026 Scale Model Announcements

From armour to aircraft, sci-fi to classic subjects, there is something here for every modeller. February delivered another wave of exciting scale model announcements, and a couple of them completely caught me off guard. You know those kits you didn’t even know you wanted… until you saw them? Well, this month delivered a few of those — and now I can’t stop thinking about them. In this Top 10 roundup, I take a look at the new releases that stood out the most, including announcements from: Trumpeter Takom Bell Fine IBG AMT Kaizo MiniArt Arma Hobby Last month’s announcement video performed incredibly well, so I’m hoping this month’s selection keeps the momentum going. As always, I also touch on the history and background of each subject, giving you a little extra context for the models that caught my eye. So grab a coffee, settle in, and let’s take a look at the February releases that might be heading to your bench soon.
