Hello, welcome to AJB
The collection will go to 85 cars, due to the licence running out.
A list of the cars so far (and future models) can be found using the below link

Wait, ... what? That sounds pretty definitive. Do you know smething I don't? Is this common knowledge that the collection will absolutely, definitely, no doubt about it, finally finish at 85 issues?
Can you provide a link or source to this information please?

Here's a bit of (sad) news: my mother's friend, who lives in the UK, contacted the JBCC publisher for me (I live in the Netherlands, she has a subscription for me). She asked if they could confirm that they are going to release 85 models. The guy she had on the phone told her that he couldn't guarantee 85 models would be released, but that it looks like they will be. However - and here's the sad bit - he also said that after those 85 models the licence expires and therefor there will be definitely no more than 85 models...
I would have loved to see some more obscure cars from the series (however, not like the Ford GT40).
Thanks for posting the pictures bondaholic! Looks good
I think it is only a matter of time until there are some new pics on eBay of future issues, like the Land Rover 90 in its box, and the Lotus Esprit Turbo which I am really looking forward to, lets hope that the wheels are facing forward unlike the TSWLM version.
This ‘news’ of the end of the collection at 85 is probably good news. I really have loved this collection, and although I can still think of many cars (25+) that I would like in the set that aren’t, I am willing to accept that 85 is enough!
good effort with the dbs customisation ak007, quite impressive. -{
It not terrible is it? Well not as bad as I thought it was going to be when I started it!
I chose not to put the mud effect on the DBS as I knew I would just spoil it and put too much on. )

Yes, very nice. I too prefer not having the mud effect that would distract from the beautiful lines and finish of the DBS. I think it's good use of artistic license, since there is a big difference between the a moving image of the 1:1 car in the best possible lighting vs. that of a static miniature...and ultimately what counts is the model's final impression in conveying that particular movie sequence.

I didn't know F Planet sold 'em - I'll pop along there in a few minutes!
Gotta say that the JB Car Collection would surely have done very well for itself if it sold more of these vehicles more widely. Let's face it, we all know about them because we're fans and have our ear to the ground, but lots of Bond fans never visit websites but would gladly pick up a car if they saw it for sale.
Then again, maybe I'm wrong and the JBCC want fans to subscribe and get all the cars, not just cherry pick the best ones.
Just got 64 65. The Bentley really is massive! The land rover defender is very detailed (even the mud flaps have the land rover logo) But surprise surprise no figures. Oh and its in a larger box again. This settles the matter once and for all that the JBCC does not have the same rights for making models for the last two installments.
By the time this collection reaches the 80 mark!...they will probably have new cars for the latest Bond movie???....It could go on forever???...I am slowly running out of room...Might have to evict the Wife & Cats!! for more space ) :007)-{

Well there is 20 issues left (at the moment ) and that in 2 issues a month so that’s 10 months, 6 months to Christmas then 4 to April, so unfortunately no cars from bond 23.

It’s another big box by the looks of it...
Cant really understand why, its no bigger that the range rover sport or land rover.
it seams to be called lightweight not land rover 90 as we had thought
Looks good still will buy it.
our last was 62+63 so 64 and 65 should come in about a week or so.
I saw the bently in forbidden planet yesterday, looks ace!
