Hi Guys , I Am Wanting To No If Anybody Who Collects The Bond Collection From Bisset Magazine Or News Agent On How Many Models Are In The Collection .
I Thought There Was 70 Models But I Am Up To Number 70 And It Shows That There Are More To Come , So Does Anybody No At All How Many?.

Cheers Barry.

originally i think it was meant to be 40, then it got expanded due to demand or something, and now they just keep on coming. as for numbers, i think i am upto #71 and the UK site lists upto #83 as back issues - surely they would be running out of cars by now :confused:

Hi All this is my first time on a forum.
I have tried to contact bissette direct and get an answer to the number of models to come but had no reply.Also does any one have models from the License to Kill Bond movie as thats the only one I have nothing for.
Cheers To All

Having a Newsagency , we have had a few customers complain when the magazine kept going past its original planned number, we contacted the distributor and were told the current plan is for 100 issues.

:eek:

Well that's a great way to milk a franchise! However, for Bond fans, it will be appreciated.

I guess its similar to CC and Biante releasing different colours of the Phase 1-3 GTHO's!

On TVSN (Foxtel) they had a collectable cars segment. For a while that prattled on about

1. Steve McQueen bike - 1/12 by Minichamps
2. James Bond - 1/43 by Minichamps Boxset - DB5 and some new car
3. whole heaps of James Bond modern 1/43 cars.

They werent overly cheap either. For the 1/43 they were $60 delivered....

I got so sick of it I switched to another channel!!!

Opps - just found TVSN post !

just when i thought the end was near, there was a note with todays delivery to say that due to popular demand, they are going to extend the collection past issue 110. and what must have cars are they going to produce: Locque's 450sel from For Your Eyes Only, the laser carrying Dodge Ambulance from Goldfinger, the VAZ-2106 from Goldeneye and several more. aaarrrhhhhhh.

And in other James Bond 1:43 news:

Dear Newsagent,

The frequency for James Bond Car Collection will be temporarily slowed down to monthly due to production delays.

The series will move to a monthly from Issue 108 then return to its (fortnightly) frequency from Part 112.

and by that time, the latest movie will have been released, so they can add more. i think i will stop at 110.

spolyhronidis

17-11-2011, 07:08 PM

this is issue 110 and the last one i will be getting. well, second last, as i am waiting for a replacement due to the large crack in the case of this one.

it's also very disappointing that most of the last lot of cars, don't have any driver or passenger figures in them.
