Great to see the the Bond Bug re-released - I was convinced that the 'Bug' along with the Marina & Maxi would never become available to us due to the damaged tooling, so with the release of the 'Bug' could we see the other 2 again? I would like to hear your thoughts on this idea though, over the last 30 years or so I've been fortunate enough to build up a collection of pretty much all of the 32 scale 'Modern Car' series, it's been a long old haul as I refuse to pay 'stupid - box collector' type prices so most of my examples were previously constructed, some well and some of poor quality, no problem though as a quick dip in the caustic soda solution sorts out that little problem. Sorry, wandered off thread - during this period I explored the idea of converting scalextric cars into kerbside static models, some were hopless as the proportions and even the scaling is isomewhat inacurate to say the least, however I purchased recently the Reliant Regal Van, now this is bang on, I've always wanted an Aston DBS/V8 so I bought the recent release of the James Bond example, it is superb! Now don't get me wrong, they're not cheap around 50 quid or so but it got me to thinking - Hornby who owns Scalextric and (funny old thing) Airfix also, could they do an 'in house' venture to release these as static kits, after all the bodyshell tooling is all done as are the clear parts, wheels & lights etc. The Jaguar XJS is another lovely example, tell me what you all think!
