Back in 2003, there was a huge James Bond exhibit showing at the Henry Ford Museum here in Detroit. It too had all of the props and the Golden Gate Bridge greenscreen(my cousin and I pretended to stomp on the passing cars on the monitor) and even a climatic scenario of needing to disarm an exploding reactor. Also, both the Vanquish and Jaguar from Die Another Day were on display there, I remember my little brother running past the rope stanchions and getting into the jaguar without us or the staff knowing. LOL Since then, there hasn't been anything like it there, it was truly a once in a lifetime experience.

Who else thought it was J.W. Pepper as soon as he said “which one has the least usefulness rating?”

That Moonraker VHS was the first bond I ever watched, my nan got it me from Morrisons for like a fiver. 🤣 I must have been 6 years old and thought the plane sequence with the accompanying music was the greatest thing I had ever seen.... Fell in love with the series right then. Amazingly Roger Moore was the only Bond I knew and until Die Another Day and I was born in 1994 🤣 cheers Nan.

Would love to see a poster video. I feel the the best Bond poster is easily The Living Daylights full gun barrel poster. Great tag line: "The New James Bond...Living on the Edge," has great colors with locations and characters from the film, all with Timothy Daltons Bond in the center with a great pose. Love that poster.

Calvin, I felt that wave of nostalgia with the Moonraker VHS. The first Bond thing I ever owned was Live and Let Die on VHS. I recently dug it out and felt rather emotional. I remember watching all the VHS films with my late grandfather as soon as he would purchase me a new one, and we would look forward to piecing together that image on the spine of the video collection. Incidentally, I have every single book you showed in the video and I used to LOVE pouring over The Essential Bond.

Awesome video Calvin. Watch you going through old boxes of bond stuff brought back so many memories. I need to go back home and go through mine.

I remember collecting those Spy files magazines!! and when I say collecting, I was only ever able to get the first 2 issues from my local newsagent. I don't think they were too popular here in oz. I also used to own the full set of Bond DVD's in up until Skyfall. Then I had my entire collection stolen at my university. Lucky me though.. since then i've started again in blu ray format and i've been collecting the books! Great vid!! AND I love that some of the stuff you had made me remember stuff that I had from waaaay back then (i'm talking bout them Spy Files tins!! Used to keep mine under my bed within reaching distance cause I wanted to be James Bond one day).

Did anyone else read the guide book, "James Bond: The Secret World of 007"? I loved picking that thing up at the library and reading it.

Nice collection Calvin. I still have that box for the magazines in my room and fondly remember the amazing 'spy tips' such as covering a container you didn't want anyone to open in vaseline.

Love your enthusiasm Calvin. The best thing about this video was your reunion with the Moonraker cassette. :)

This is such a nostalgia trip! I had so much of this stuff! Unfortunately I had to get rid of it during various house moves, now slowly building it back up. My favourite bond book as a kid was one published by DK which had cross sections of famous scenes, gadgets and cars, cannot for the life of me remember what it was called and I have never seen it since

Being a video game collector I need an outlet so I’m start James Bond just now

Calvin, watching this was very nostalgic, because you and I are about the same age and I became a Bond fan in much the same way. I had the Spy Files magazines, the old VHS collection (not the full set, some taped off TV) - that exact one of Moonraker which I got in my Xmas stocking in 1999, and I also became a proper ‘fan’ through reading The Essential Bond, which as you quite rightly say was a Bible of sorts in the days before fast internet and helped me develop a critical eye for the films. Many thanks for this clip, keep up the great work.

Like you I got into Bond at a young age. Just by accidentally catching an ITV screening of For Your Eyes Only. Previous to that I didn't know Bond existed. But I was hooked straight away, and was amazed when I found there were so many others to catch up on! Like you I also bought any Bond magazine or article in another magazine, as in the pre-internet age we were so hungry for things we didn't already know, you'd buy anything on a whim. This also went for some books. I also have some of my VHS recordings of the films off ITV, as I like to still watch the old ads as they take me back to watching the film as a kid! They really set the scene. Along with some of the wonderfully dodgy editing done by ITV so they could show the film on an afternoon! OHMSS and YOLT also used to get routinely chopped up for time reasons. That cigarette rocket launcher was a genuine surprise to me (I just thought Bond wanted a cigarette) as the earlier scene of Tiger demonstrating it was cut out. As was Aki's murder, as I didn't know SPECTRE were sending assassins into the camp. Also the whole safe cracking scene from OHMSS was cut, just because Bond is reading Playboy!

Love your Bond stuff. I have lots too! Excellent, adore all Bond 💜

I always wondered why you seem to be more merciful on "Moonraker" than most are...now that I realize it was the first Bond film you saw it makes sense.

Álright. I once owned the issue on James Bond of the German magazine "Cinema". That was either around A View to a Kill/Never Say Never Again or a little later during the Dalton era. One of the first records I ever owned was a title song compilation whcih included all the movies up to For Your Eyes Only. I owned the soundtracks to A View to a Kill, Dr. No, From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, and my personal favorite of them all: On Her Majesty's Secret Service. I remember playing with a matchbox version of the Lotus Esprit in underwater mode with the fins sticking out. I also vaguely remember playing James Bond with a Walter PPK toy gun. I remember wearing a shoulder holster. That was still in the 80s. Long time ago. I bought some of the Bond paperbacks in the late 90s or early 2000s. Today, I only own some DVDs. Didn't care much for Bond from the Dalton era on until, I think, I found this channel. I hadn't even watched all the Roger Moore Bond movies until recently.

This was great. I think we’ve all had similar nostalgic experiences going through our collections over the years. My childhood bible was Rubin’s JB Movie Encyclopedia. I too started with VHS and have made the various releases and book editions my main focus as there is a surprising amount of variance in some of the video transfers. I laughed out loud at that tv magazine because I still have a random old one I saved from years ago. Since you’re heavily into the Bond games I think you’ll be thrilled with TWINE N64. It’s the dark horse favorite of Bond games because so few ever played it and it was an N64 late release. The graphics and controls are first rate for the system. While the single player campaign isn’t the greatest and can be extremely frustrating, the game comes alive in the multiplayer and is without a doubt the best Bond multiplayer of all time. Great weapon variety, some truly great maps and great controls that fix the Goldeneye quirks. The golden gun mode is phenomenal. This is the game I take to parties or do tournaments with as it is much easier to introduce new players to and runs much more smoothly than Goldeneye.

It's always nice to go through old stuff and then spend way too much time being nostalgic about it XD. The Special Edition DVDs are still my favourite because of the covers, booklets and custom menu's for each film, but what on earth did they do to all of the Roger Moore pictures lol. I mean I thought The Spy Who Loved Me cover one was bad, then I watched Moonraker yesterday (yes, I'm still going through them all lol) and that picture of him on the booklet, well that is what you would get using early naughties Photoshop I guess. Cool collection though, enjoyed the video as always :)

We were obviously of a similar age, I had the 007 spy files magazines, (I'm sure I got a pen that had a built in microphone) with the magazine I also had Bond magazines that you actually got a model car with each magazine, each issue told you about the car but it wasn't just the cars you would expect some used by enemies or played little role ! The other items you have obtained are pretty neat ! I have some of those also haha 😋

My James bond experience started with Goldeneye and my father told me there was going to be a bond marathon on tv because 'tomorrow never dies was being released. Of course the marathon started with Dr no and I was like "This is not so good" and walked outside but the more I saw random bond movies the more I got interested. My collection to date is not as epic as yours Calvin Dyson, but I do have a few things I will keep forever. I just told one of my friends the other day that 'die another day' is not my favorite bond but it is my most celebrated bond, I have the special edition DVD, the 1/18 scale Aston Martin, and two theater posters of it.

Blimey I remembered now having a lot of that stuff when it came out

Is it just me or does it seem like EON has massively dropped the ball in terms of merchandising? It seemed like Bond was everywhere during my childhood in the early 2000s - I had pretty much everything Calvin showed off!

I never collected much in the way of props or posters but I have a lot of the same reading material as yourself. I collected the Spy Files and have one entire set still in the wrapping. I have the Essential Bond book (same edition up to TWINO) and remember they often gave gave their opinion - I believe they claimed that Tomorrow Never Dies was a better film than Goldeneye 'on almost every level' and remember thinking that was a bold claim! I actually picked this up before I'd watched every film in the series and used it to pinpoint the films I wanted my parents to buy for my birthday (on VHS of course!) Also have The Art of Bond.

Man I remember those Spy Magazines. Do you remember the cards that had Villains, Gadgets, Girls etc? (NEVERMIND, Got to that part of the video)

I just got my spy files from my mum's house last month!! Brings back so many memories

Fun video Calvin..some really cool items there - brought back a lot of memories of my collecting days as I had many of the items you have. Didn't have the replica gun though. Some items I couldn't afford. Most of my collection had to go in a house move including nearly all the original posters signed by dear Desmond... Q which I sold on ebay. Lovely man. I've stll got 4 that he signed. Had a really nice trading card display mounted and signed by Lois Maxwell. Met several of the Bond actors the only Bond I met was Roger Moore on his theatre tour. Had those videos and that DVD set and the books on the films. Still have the poster book I kept that because I had a thing for posters. I thought that might be worth something in future years..but I just looked and it selling for £3.50. One thing I regret losing was a cinema display for The World is Not enough it was like a giant vinyl double sided poster with giant portaits the main characters that ran along the spare room of my old house it was awesome. It saved me on wallpapering and paint. When you got bored of the pic I'd flip it. I didn't have that magazine though..that was for younger ones like yourself.

Man, i got rid of all my 007 VHS tapes when I got all the movies on DVD, then again got rid of the DVDs when I got the Blu-Ray collection. I also had a an Action Figure that I have since lost into oblivion... I have some of the 007 comic books (Vargr and Eidolon) and a number of soundtracks still though.

hey calvin, i may be a little late with this, but has anyone recommended richard madden (bodyguard, cinderella, GOT) as a potential next bond? i think he'd nail it.

11:12 Awesome James Bond Collection Mate. X

How much was the replica gun if you don't mind me asking?

I had the movie poster book and I think a different James Bond-them Empire magazine, and still have the Legacy book (though mine is slightly damaged), The Essential James Bond (had 2, maybe even 3), and playing cards- all gifts. Had a few calendars over the years too, and me and my brother had remote control cars from Die Another Day (that we couldn't really use because they shared a signal so we kept controlling one another car, not to mention there wasn't really much space where we lived). Also had the films on VHS, but currently have the DVD collection in a silver suitcase (and the Craig ones separate, along with 60s Casino Royale and NSNA; have Casino Royale on DVD and Blu-Ray). Had a couple of the games too. I have a book you don't have that I recommend called Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, which is an unofficial look at the Bond films up to Brosnan (or mine is) including 60s Casino Royale and Never Say Never Again, goes into some depth about the production history of each film, and ends with them ranking things like plot, action, girls, villains, dialogue Bond himself etc and finally a rating (although they give Licence to Kill a bad rating because while they think it's a very good film, they don't think it's a very good Bond film). Makes for a good read, and also where I learnt that one of the early censors for the BBFC who gave Bond the go-ahead was a dude called Trevalyn, which must be where 006 got his name from.

You should def have a look at the real life MI6 Building, that gets blown up in Skyfall and Spectre. It's still intact BTW. It's location is no secret, it's even listed on maps as Secret Intelligence Service Headquarters! It's across The Thames from The Tate Gallery, and The National Intelligence Centre from Spectre, which is really Riverwalk House. Also Whitehall, as that's the exterior for MI6 HQ in the Moore films. The Royal College Of Arms from OHMSS. Sotherby's Auctioneers exterior as featured in Octopussy. The O2 Arena in TWINE. And Stanley Crescent in Notting Hill, which is the street Bond's flat is located on in Spectre. And if you want somewhere to eat: if your budget stretches, you could dine at Rules Restaurant, where M does in Spectre.

I had "The Art Of Bond" for my 10th or 11th birthday. I completely forgot I had it!

Calvin who are your favorite James Bond's? Mines are Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan!!

DVD's and VHS Are cool
