Miniart wins some awards and decides to come clean about their new kits…

At the recent Nuremburg Toy Fair Miniart took away two kit of the year awards from Modelfan Magazine – well deserved we thought – but more exciting for us is the images and links of a great deal of their new releases for a good part of this year. Let’s have a look at what is coming from these award winners…
