Great Films, Shameless Re-Packaging
Review date: 2008-09-30 Rating: 6 out of 10
It goes without saying that the Idea of having all bond movies to date in a set is appealing and we bond fans kinda like the gimmicks such as the Idea of the inclusion of a Casino Royale Chip Set with Cards,But if you are drawn to this collection by this as I was then DON'T as the chip set shown in the pics is not what is in this box.
The Chips, 4 rolls of 25 (not 8 rolls of 25 as pictured) are in a re modeled container and are of shoddy quality with rounded edges on one side and an unfinished sharp flat side.
The DVDs are in standard size clear cases (unlike mentioned in another review) apart from CASINO ROYALE (black case)which does not come from the same mgm series and looks like it was added purely to update an existing out of date box set.
'Never Say Never Again' made in 1983 with a wiggy Sean Connery is incidentally not included in the quote "For the first time ever, all 21 of James Bond's riveting adventures are together in one riveting collection!"(I Know it is not an 'official' Paramount release but), nor is the original Casino Royale which IS excusable.
(or is it?)
Great Films, Shameless Re-Packaging but probably worth a look at the price

Slim cases

Are the disc cases slim in this edition? In the box set minus the poker set, the disc cases are all slimmer than the editions it is possible to buy seperately.

The best, the greatest, the James Bond Collection.
I haven't seen all of the dvds in this box set but, of course I've seen most. There is no James Bond film I wouldn't recommend except Thunderball.
Ya gotta trust me, this is great. What ya waiting for, BUY it.
