Unboxing James Bond 007 Aston Martin DB5 Diecast Danbury Mint

Unboxing James Bond 007 Aston Martin DB5 Diecast Danbury Mint 1:24 Scale. CORRECTION I mistakenly said Franklin Mint in the video. I should have said Danbury mint. Apologies!

[@richardb6260]

Bought two when they originally came out. I think they were around $125 a piece. Still my favorite DB5 model. The most detailed outside of the Eaglemoss 1:8 scale version. The hood (or bonnet) is supposed to be hinged. The guns are fixed due to the size (though the 1:43 scale Corgi had retractable guns). There's a phone in the driver's side door, a gun tray under the seat, the center console armrest flips open to reveal the gadget controls, the antenna retracts, the bumpers extend, and the taillight/oil ejectors flip down.

And the latch to release the rear bulletproof sheald Is under the boot/trunk lid there also a latch to release the passenger ejector seat and a spare wheel in the boot /trunk and both petrol cap covers left and right open

[@tomlake2732]

The hood (bonnet) is not supposed to come off. It's supposed to be hinged. You noted the damage in your video.

Got the car case and plinth looks fantastic

[@picassoboy52]

its a fantastic car. Everything moves and works. In the passenger door panel is a secret telephone receiver than can be pulled out, you have to use a toothpick, you open the secret panel and out it comes, the tiniest thing you ever saw but its there. The fuel door opens as well. You just need a toothpick on hand to work everything

Danbury Mint not Franklin Mint as I stated in the video. ;)

First it's " Aston Martin" not " Austin Martin". Didn't mention the opening gas caps, ejector seat release ( under car), antenna goes up & down, bullet proof screen open/ release is inside the trunk ( at the top) , spare tire under the spare tire cover and in the center armrest & inside driver's side door panel opens too & sun visor moves up and down. ,not sure if rear lights fold down was mentioned..Received mine today. Love it!♥️ Great review though and to be honest, wished my bonet/hood would release and come off to see all the engine detail.Thanks again!

Yeah my pronunciation leaves something to be desired. I sincerely regret selling this one. Thanks for watching and please visit our store.

[@jamesdean8669]

@@rsturycz1 thanks Robert . It was fun trying to find " all" the things that opened/closed, etc. It gives you the feeling of being a kid again and receiving the Corgi J.B. Aston Martin for the first time in ( for me anyways, 1966). Thanks for your review and yes, will visit your shop.😊

[@jamesdean8669]

@@rsturycz1 have you done a review on the hot wheels Aston Martin ? See them on aliexpress & dh gate. It looks very similar to the Danbury Mint one ( which I have) but seems to have a couple more options such as all the wheel spinners come out , not just the rear driver's side one that the DM has. Same scale too..thought I'd ask as I want to buy one of those too.

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

Love that car! I got 5 of them!🥰👍

[@darrenbutcher6684]

[@nelsongutierrez5322]

I got 2 of those 007 danburymints the rear bulletshield look underneath the card or is it the ejecting seat that also has a button to work those parts haven't check the ones I owned in years

[@oxfamshop]

With those model fragile is the word but I have one and they are super.

[@adriang2332]

My dad bought the same car model years ago, and the read differential broke cause one wheel to fall off the other wheel to just hang there, is there a place that i could take it to get it fixed?

[@horseshoetradingcompany3185]

Sure, please send me a note with photos to [e-mail]

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

The hood on those are hinged, not supose to come off. But nice model i own 5 of them.
