It was launched in 1960 in association with the model kit company Airfix, and ceased publication in 1993.

Originally a small-format magazine, it increased in sized eventually to A4 format in January 1976.

Although carrying the Airfix branding, the magazine was impartial in its editorial content and featured kits from other manufacturers.

The title was subsequently acquired by Alan W. Hall (Publications) Ltd. and publishing resumed with the September 1988 issue.

Occasionally reduced to a bi-monthly periodical, publication finally ceased after the October/November 1993 issue.
