Hobby Japan Issue 676 (October 2025)

Lead Special Feature: Jurassic World Dinosaurs return to Hobby Japan's lead feature for the first time since 1993!? To coincide with the 8 August release of the film Jurassic World Rebirth, we present a grand showcase of the Jurassic film series to date! This includes introductions to each successive film, expert explanations of dinosaurs, and, of course, a wealth of dioramas recreating iconic scenes from the movies. This summer, while admiring these awe-inspiring dinosaur models, let's make it a season where you gain more dinosaur knowledge than ever before.

Second Special Feature: Reflecting on 45 Years of Gunpla History with HJ It has been 45 years since the release of the first Gunpla, Best Mecha Collection 1/144 Gundam, in July 1980. Gunpla has evolved dramatically and sparked numerous booms along the way. From its birth to the present day, we unravel the history of Gunpla by revisiting the pages of Monthly Hobby Japan—which has followed it for over 45 years—and reintroducing the past model examples that graced those pages.

Plus of course, there are hundreds of pages of other news, features and articles you'll love!
