| My VHS copies date back to the late eighties, when the transfers were poor and missing several scenes. The two subsequent remastered UK VHS releases I also own. The final things I bought on VHS were SE box sets of OHMSS and GE plus an HMV exclusive TND box set and an MVC exclusively designed TND VHS case. I have the original 'big' VHS rental store versions of AVTAK, TLD and GE. I purchased the THX edition of TSWLM on DVD, before getting all the SE DVD's and UE DVD's. I own all the Blu-ray's so far released apart from TWINE. |

| I have all dvd's in a SE & UE editions. Never Say Never again Casino Royale '67 Casino Royale '53 (as a download on my computer)
BUT there is no copy of QoS in my collection, simply because I consider it a waste of good money. And anybody giving it to me as a present is unwanted in my house. :*h*:
I have all the EON soundtracks of the movies (Including QoS, bought it before I saw the movie), sadly no NSNA or CR'67 soundtrack. |

| I traded in my SE's for UE's and now regretting it! The SE's were so much better and the menus where breath taking - let's hope the Blue Rays are better. I also have a complete set of silver boxed 25th Anniversary VHS's which I geekily love!

| Having seen the HD transfers, they'll be a big improvement over the UE DVDs. |

| I have already have 7 blu-rays so I will probably be buying the Dalton flicks, TSWLM and OHMSS individually when they come out and I'm sure the HD transfers will be worth it. |

| I've got them all on VHS. Some on SE DVD.
I have the blue and silver Ultimate Edition sets. The last one I bought was FRWL individually on UE DVD. I think I paid $6.
When the new Blu-Rays are released, I'll probably pick up DN, FRWL, and a couple others. No more expensive box sets for me. |

Terrific stuff, my copy is almost worn out. That Annette Stroyberg - she really wanted the role.
I don't know who wrote that but he's a man after my own heart. |

| Finally picked up a few Laserdiscs I had been missing and I've started collecting the various early pan and scan discs for their differing transfers and lovely jackets that usually have original poster art.
Finally found the early 90's open matte TMWTGG, and the rare late release THX reissue disc for GF. |

| Guess I'll revive an old thread (sorry!). Currently I own the 50th Anniversary Blu Ray set + the other Craig films on DVD, NSNA and the CR Spoof/TV.
I used to own the Special Editions and Ultimate Editions but due to all the duplication, I gave both sets away to some friends. Kind of wish in retrospect I had kept those SE's. So many good memories of trying to track them down as they came out when I first became a Bond fan. Didn't have too many video stores in town and it was an exciting hunt to try and track down the missing pieces. Still remember picking up GF, GE, TND. I remember some had proven to be very elusive such as FYEO. I still remember the snowy day I finally tracked down the TSWLM.
I also kind of regret getting rid of my VHS collection during a move. I really enjoyed the sleeves and the back cover. Might need to re-collect them.

I have to admit I always enjoyed those earlier versions of Dr. No before the master. I think the hair in the gate and imperfections of the film kind of added to the vibe of the film. It reminds me of an interview with Ralph Lauren where he said his favorite shirt was a button down from KMart. Because the wear and tear to the shirt. The tears. The rips. The fading. Don't get me wrong, it's great to have all these pristine copies of the films, but sometimes I think those VHS tapes (and cassette tapes for music) with the wear and tear kind of added to the films in a weird way. Perhaps I'm just strange!
