BOND VEHICLE COLLECTIBLES SC

(W) Paul Brent Adams

In 1962, movie audiences were introduced to the most famous secret agent in the world and his fleet of fabulous motor cars. The classic Aston Martin DB5 first appeared in Goldfinger, followed by Thunderball and several more films. Every film featured a stable of exotic cars for both Bond and his adversaries. In 1965 the British toy company Corgi released a model of the DB5, complete with an array of spy gadgets, including a working ejection seat. Other firms joined in, producing both toys for children, and highly detailed models aimed at adult collectors. Here is your guide to the exciting world of miniature Bond cars, and their gadgets, with advice from an experienced Bond collector.

STAR WARS MEMORABILIA UNOFF GUIDE STAR WARS COLLECTABLES

(W) Paul Berry

Star Wars first debuted on movie screens in 1977, and it has generated more collectables than any other movie series in history. From inauspicious beginnings, Paul Berry charts the development of the Star Wars collectable from the Original Trilogy era of the 1970s and 1980s, the prequels of the 1990s and 2000s and the modern era of films. This book looks at the massive success of the Kenner, and later Hasbro, action figure range, which has spawned well over 1,000 figures; the story of the books and comics that have greatly expanded the Star Wars universe; the records and the videos; the bubblegum cards; and the modern collectors items.

The trilogy about toys naturally spawned immense amounts of collectible toys for fans to collect and enjoy. Toy Story Collectibles features highlights from the past two decades of Toy Story fandom!
