    I am curious as to what the new 10 models will be? Sure we can expect Skyfall models, but what will the others be?

    Wikipedia list the cars up to issue 135, which include two Skyfall vehicles:

    Absolute JOKE we are gonna get ANOTHER DB5! WHY? Because its another £8.00 they can screw out of us! Suppose it will be surrounded by crates so that will be ok then?! A bit like the second Goldfinger DB5 in the collection with crates.

    So when we get it? That'll be the 4th DB5 in the set! Unless they do the one from Casino Royale for good measure!

    Have we had a DB5 from GoldenEye yet? And TND? And the deleted scene from TWINE? Lots of scope for the DB5 model to be rereleased. :)

    they will probably have the car that the parking attendant put a ticket on in WINE and not forgetting the car stuck in the tree from FYEO or how about taxi that took Bond etc to the hotel in QofS ? OOHHHHHHHHH THE POSSIBILITIES. This is going to run and run, we all know it and they know we will keep buying as it is Bond and we are fans and collectors

    Huh. Just got home to find issues 120 and 121 waiting for me. Wasn't expecting them so soon.

    Likewise, Chevron. I think Fabbri are finally taking on board some of the less than favourable comments on here regarding their shameless barrel-bottom scraping, though, as I see they're going to make up for 120 being just a generic, production-line Mercedes briefly driven by Locque in FYEO with 122 which is... um... just a generic, production-line Mercedes driven by Locque in FYEO!

    Just as thought, two issues in one month. I too received issues 120 and 121 today.

    WH Smith got it wrong.

    Gonna ask them myself tomorrow as i am going to order a box file for the magazines as they are pretty full, especially as they are going on for longer too.

    Would have asked today but i am a NATWEST customer so it went a little pear-shaped as i was wandering what the hell was going on? Will post tomorrow what they say to me about how regular the issues will be released?

    I think all we can do is edit the text out of the second post and type "double post".

    I like the Gaz Volga. It has a little flag and they took the trouble to put a bit of railway track in the corner of the base.

    I think this is the only thread on the car collection, although there is another generic 'share your bond collection' thread:

    Just had a look on Wikipedia list, i think there maybe an announcement on the other models to be released soon? The spaces are there ready? Make them models worth waiting for?!!!!

    Received 121 today. Nice little model alongside a bit of train track but no figures in the car, Next car doesn't look anything special but you never know?

    On a letter regarding the issues coming out every 2 weeks again? There was nothing in this issue so i assume it's 4 weeks an issue in the UK?

    i just rang the distributor in uk ( w h smith ) and the next issue 122 is due for release on 8 august..........they did get it right for the 121 issue, maybe they have got it right again.......since they are the sole distributor in uk , you'd think eaglemoss would take the trouble to inform them if they wanted to go back to a 2 x week schedule.......

    Subscribers in the UK received issue 121 on 21st June, so those who collect them in store are slightly behind it appears, for whatever reason.

    It's a little odd that some people have received a letter in the UK, but others have not?

    As it happens I received another letter, two days ago listing all the issues and dates from 114 - 135. Odd, as the other letter, from 25th May listed dates ahead of this one and was up to date. Those issues were 120 - 140.

    Did it state the models to be released too samuel?

    No, the letters never list them. Wikipedia does list the models up to 135 and normally, that list turns out to be correct.

    Today, I received issues 122 and 123. Great cars. At last another vehicle from From Russia With Love.

    I wonder how long the website will stay up after the collection finishes? There's quite a few issues/models I'd like to buy, but for various reasons, not going to buy them at the moment.
