    It's quite good although doesn't really contain anything new. I'd recommend the soft cover version if you can find it as it's less expensive and therefore worth picking up.

    Yeah, I already added this to my collection. There is also a soft cover magazine style one that differs from the hard cover version. I have that too. The 50th anniversary of cinematic Bond makes it a great time to collect.

    The softback has 65 pages less than the hardback.

    I just received a paper in the mail from Easton Press about a leather bound with gold pages version of this book. Is it worth the premium price of $135? I was going to get the normal version from Amazon when I finish the Archives book. From the flyer, I don't see any new pictures. And I paid less for the Archives book.

    It's your money - but I seriously wouldn't recommend buying the expensive version... The regular version is enjoyable because it's affordable.

    I just recently received that mailing from Easton Press too. Personally, I think it's a waist of money since I already have the hardcover and the soft cover regular editions. I like Easton Press, but not for this.
