What is a partwork ? I see the yamato in "the brig" forum and it is also here www.model-space.co.uk/ships/battleship-yamatois this a pArtwork, that is a magazine and model that has been in the newsagents already? I see it is launching on 1st december, but only online??? From the info I got from dagostini site, we don't think it has been on trial yet outside japan. And the magazine is digital. So new launch next week or old partwork? |

Welcome to the forum.
A partworks (my defintion) is a weekly periodical coming with bits every week allowing the buyer to build a model. - such as the Bismarck &Yamato and the Lancaster. As far as I am aware the Yamato was only ever released in Japan. So technically its an old partwork but new to the United Kingdom

I consider partworks as a weekly magazine with modelparts included. The DeAg Model-space models are monthly without a magazine, so not a partwork in the traditional sense of the word. The Yamoto was released in Japan (and I believe the Netherlands) as a traditional partwork, but they have changed the format for the UK market. However, it doesn't really matter whether you call it a partwork or not, and talking about it on this forum, or my other partwork forum www.partworkmodels.co.uk/phpBB3 is welcomed and encouraged. There are plenty of modellers here to help, encourage and enjoy. Are you building the Yamoto ? |

DeAgostini have come out with a new partwork format it seems. No big advertising, but you can buy a kit in monthly installments, over a few months. I'm not sure what you get in the way of a magazine or instructions.
