@SkyfallCraig, I bought the same ring as well. It took 6 days for it to get to the UK. I placed the order on a Tuesday and received the ring the following Monday.
PS: Just realised the image I posted a few days ago doesn't work. I'm going to fix it later today.
I am sorry. But you have to understand....at one moment this spoiler thing fades away....as the film premieres in more countries.
One advice I have for you. And that's what I did when "SPECTRE" premiered in the UK: Don't enter this forum.
I live in Toronto, and I think it took just over two weeks to get here.
And it was 50% off!
There also seem to be no clear release dates for Bond related merchandise. I've had a vague end of November release date given by the Cartamundi Facebook page for their new Bond playing cards, and Corgi will be releasing in January, at some point.
I've also ordered three Bond books in the last couple of months that have all missed their release date, Some Kind of Hero by a couple of weeks. The most recent to be affected is the SPECTRE edition of The James Bond Archives, which was cancelled once by Amazon, and has now been removed again, despite still appearing in my order history. Has anyone got any info on this?
It's still in my order history and says it will be despatched shortly.
Same here. Was hoping to have it by now.....
I think Blood, Sweat and Bond was released when it should have been (27th Oct), but there was still confusion on Amazon's part. Although, like the Bond on Set books, it reveals the order and structure of the film, I wouldn't say there are any major spoilers re. Oberhauser apart from
You may be right about the Archives books, but they still appear to have missed the original release date despite the film being out in most countries now.
Has it been released yet? It seems that you can buy a copy on the Taschen website now for €150, yet on Amazon it is listed as being in the £30 range, however it's release date keeps getting pushed back every week!
Yep, received it last week. What do you wanna know? Or should I post pictures?
I really can recommend it.
It features countless wonderful photographs of the cars and every car's backstory and link to the movie is described in great detail.
Here are some photos that I have just taken :)
It is very informative but from a movie fan's point of view rather than from a car fan's point of view I guess.
This time around for Spectre, we got the standard cardboard popcorn box and drink cup - the latter being the highlight, with a sturdy lid and straw, and rather classy chrome lettering/chrome strip running down the side:
These SF/SP designs are too similar for my liking, but I guess on the plus side, they all match nicely - like part of a big set. Also, it's good to see a bit of variety there with box, tube, cup and shaker:
While I was at the cinema, I inquired about their standees, and managed to snag the only Spectre standee there! Awesome! A bit anxious though, as I haven't seen the standee yet, but will pass it when I go to watch the new film in the next week or so. I hope it's a full size one. Of course, I have to wait til the end of the run to receive the standee, but will post pics when it arrives.
So what cinema-related stuff did you get?

Maybe if it continues to sell well they'll make more sizes. :)
It looks like a beautiful, beautiful book. Quite informative too, judging from the little bits I read via the images you posted. Sadly, for one reason or another, the book appears to be not available where I live. Neither amazon or local establishments are carrying it. It's wait and see status at the moment, but if it becomes available I'll definitely order a copy. Thanks for sharing the photos!
Nothing in my neck of the woods. When I saw the film for the first time with friends a couple weeks ago, the idea of maybe buying a cinema collectible crossed my mind, and I did take a peek, but nothing was being sold.
@QBranch: On the topic of standees, is it easy to get those? I've been told before that cinema have to send those back to the studios (presumably to be recycled and turned into new standees). Is that a load of bollocks or not?
Here's the car the night of the opening.
