Q Gadgets!
“Our 1:8 scale Aston Martin DB5 includes all the gadgets we were treated to in the 25th Bond movie No Time To Die, including its changing number plates, first seen in Goldfinger in 1964, updated in this latest design with LED screens.
Other gadgets also include tyre slashers, bulletproof glass, a brace of M134 Miniguns that protrude from behind the headlights, mine dispenser with dropping minimines, full command control panel with slider smokescreen control, working ejector seat with button and roof markings.
Plus, of course, replicas of the distinctive side strakes that were used to eject shells from the Miniguns, chrome bumpers, and 12-inch crossbow wheels.
The bodywork reflects the extensive damage caused by SPECTRE’s shower of bullets, however, we will provide the option of a damaged or pristine version for you to choose the finished effect.”

Ordering
As usual with most models from Agora, this DB5 is available as a 12 or 24-month subscription but is delivered over 12 monthly shipments. If you choose the 24-month option, you would pay smaller monthly payments for twice as long and receive a shipment every two months.
The Collector’s Edition version has larger up-front cost, but includes the cost of the first three pack shipments.
You can find all the details and how to order at the following Agora sites:

Drat. Was about halfway through the Eaglemoss one when Eaglemoss had a total existence failure. Not surprised that it’s a completely new model (and, given the not-great quality of the Eaglemoss one, fair enough), but was hoping there would at least be an option for it to be in the original Goldfinger configuration instead of this much later version (like how the Eaglemoss/Fanhome DeLorean has the BTTF3 stuff as an option). Curious to see how the rest of these go, since I still want a Bond car in my collection but this one isn’t going to be it.
Those LED license plates look ridiculous. I agree with Rachel. They should have offered a Goldfinger version as an option or at least just started with it. Oh well.
