In the beginning: The sales brochure ...
Next, the key (the only part I would have for a year) ...
Unloading the Globetrotter from the truck ...
Manhandling same into the house ...
Prop Shop technician adjusting the machine guns ...
Bulltetproof shield and rotating license plate mechanisms.
In place at last ...
Unveiled.
Control box.
Bluetooth remote.
Many of the knobs, etc. are functional. Although made of rubber, the seats were prepped in such a way as to simulate leather.
Sadly, the steering wheel is stationary and there is no indication of a radio phone.
Interior details include armrest controls, ejector seat button.
The machine guns operate just as on the full-size prop via springs on the marker lights.
Rear detail. Sadly, the taillights do not open.
The fit of some components is disappointing.
Being told by Prop Shop that for now, anyway, this is the only one in the US.

Are you gonna complain the poor fit?
I certainly would!

I'm jealous!
congratulation!
I went over it with the tech when he was here and told that that's simply what you get with fibreglass; worth noting that unlike the SF props, these are NOT 3D printed, or at least, sections are not.
It still blows me away that we pay more for these here in the UK, its country of manufacture than collectors such as yourself overseas
Again congratulations on a wonderful Bond collectible {[]
It looks really "real" - I don't think the panel gaps are too bad. Real Aston Martins weren't like a new Audi either, with their aluminium sheets hammered over wooden moulds. It's just that today we only see over-restored examples that are much better than when new.

Whoa! So I suppose the 2008/09 DBS would cost the same for a year, why so much?
