[ Closed ] Donk's Modest Bond collection (Page 3 of 30)

Great updates Donk, Thanks for sharing    Keep em coming 

thats a nice Gilbert Thunderball Jetpack set - way cool!!!

I recognise that Red boxed Odd job - hehe I sold that to Justin - still got a red and black shrinkwrapped.

Old toys don't disappear they just get richer owners!   

terrific collection - one day I'll get an invite 

It's more like a lair     Whatever it is... it's the coolest place on the planet for sure!!

Cool dolls sweetchuck!

When's the toys coming out?

Oh Shucks! 

Bloody hell Donk, where do you hide this stuff    I thought you had most of it on display 

False what Donk 

At first glance these both look like the Corgi Juniors packaged 1001 James Bond Aston Martin DB6 however the first diecast issued in 1968 is technically the 3rd and in my opinion the superior variant of the Husky Bond DB6 with metal wheels and rubber tyres & matt silver coachwork, this example being made for the American market, the baseplate featuring a Corgi Juniors sticker covering the husky branding. The second diecast issued in 1970 featured metalic silver coachwork, a new casting for the baseplate featuring Corgi Juniors branding and the less aesthetically pleasing Whizzwheels. Not surprising the first diecast which I class as a transitional model for the Husky/Corgi Juniors change over is the rarer version which took this collector many years to source

Very cool Donk 

I have a set of them wheels on my Golf 

Nice Buddy, good to see you got the 68 version at last, they appear to be reaching hen's teeth levels of rarity.

Defo one of my favorites that also made an equally rare appearance in the Husky Crime Busters set

Hey Donk,

My vote for one of the rarest juniors is the one in the Heroes Giftset - whats your vote?
