Also will buy some issues only.
I think most issues will repeat the same car.
Now I got 1 & 2 only.

The pictures information come from FB.

Difference between DB5 with issue 3 and 6 is that issue 3's car is the one with ejected passenger seat, hence the hole in the roof. Issue six is with the extended tyre slasher on the rear wheel.

Yeah, 2000GT is nice. Since this convertible version only existed because of this movie. This model is worth collecting, regardless if you're a James Bond fan or not. smile.gif

This is cool!! The diaroma look so nice! drool.gif

I'm more interested to see if the James Bond figurine looks like Sean Connery or not... tongue.gif

But yeah, if headlights can open or even if it's fixed in open position, would be even greater. Since the diorama scene is night time.

since you will get the same car again on issues 6
so this one will have open rooftop as the diorama is from goldfinger's factory chase after he ejected the henchmen out
*
The hole in the roof is part of the scene's action sequence. To help you guys understand better, here's the video of that car chase scene. smile.gif


And if you look closely at the model, you can see the machine guns at the turn signals. biggrin.gif
