James Bond complete 20 DVD box set R1 from Canada pictures added
 
Hello everyone I am new to DVDtalk and was wondering if anyone has ever seen a R1 20 dvd box set of James Bond. The reason I am asking is because I saw one for sale in a storethat sell used DVD's. The ISBN is 0-798-5968-5 and the UPC is 027616903280. There si also a number below the bar code and it is 1006132. There is a small little sticker that says made in Canada. I am trying to get a digital camera to get pictures of it. There is no Asian text on it everything is in english with logos from MGM and of course 007. Any help would be very much appriciated. Thank you in advance.

I am from Canada and I can vouch for the existence of a 20 disc box set. It came out when they released vol 2 and vol 3 of he bond boxsets and was only available at HMV for $199, then $229 after Christmas.

It does exist. It is a blue box that slips upwards to show all 20 of the special edition cases.

I don;t have a picture but I can try and get one.

Thats it! thanks shanomac316 . I bought it last night and figured if it was a bootleg box set I could return it today.

I too remember seeing this at HMV a while back. It does indeed exist and is legit.

It is kind of weird that the set is not as easy to find. I was disappointed when I learned they would not be offering a new remastered set this fall.

Here's a pic of the R2 version. Canada's is different?

Damed 08-19-05 09:28 AM

Definitly different. The canadian version was basically a full size (all 20 discs) version of one of the collection box sets. Really long sucker.

Damed 08-19-05 09:45 AM

The one I saw was basically the collections volume 1, 2 and 3 all put into a single big long cardboard sleeve, with similar art the the collection volumes.

sjinsc 08-19-05 09:57 AM

Yes it is very different from the UK box set. I looks just like Damed said.

You never heard about Canada? It's a really cold country to the north of the United States. Their biggest sport is hockey, they have no real military to speak of, they have legalized marijuana use, lots of television shows and movies shoot there because it's cheaper,and their biggest stars are Terrance and Philip.

But yeah, that's basically the style.

shanomac316 08-19-05 10:43 AM

It's like that but has a big outer cardboard sleeve the covers he whole thing with a picture of a gun and "The James Bond Collection" on it
