Carl Very nice. I am 3 packs away from finishing mine so looking forward to getting to that stage. Like your cabinet - its just the sort of thing i am looking for as i will eventually have 3 deagostini cars and a bike to display. If eaglemoss ever get their finger out i may even one day have a completed DB5. Tony Happy Modelling

Looks great, Carl! You’re going to need another display case... What are the two on bottom? Kits, and if so, by whom? (one looks like a Bugatti Veyron?) Tired, Old, and Cranky!

Thanks everyone
@Tony-I just got my first set of DB5 parts too.I hope it goes smoother than the DeLorean.I am now 5 months with no parts from Eaglemoss on the BTTF car.At this rate it will be 5 years before I get all the parts!
@Andy -just a light polishing on the body.The paint finish is pretty nice on this partwork
@Mark the 2 cars on the bottom are lego technic kits.The Bugatti and the Porsche

I phoned them friday last on the DB5 fiasco and they tell me they shipped Thursday last week. absolutly terrible customer service but going to give it until this friday as i really want to make this one. Not sure why its over 100 issues this time unless they are reducing the number of parts in each stage. Planning on putting a build diary up if/when the parts ever do arrive. Cannot remember the name (have it on file some place) but did hear there might be some upgrades from the same guysthat did the foyx capacitor and "christmas tree" for the delorean. The little tracker map thing would be a good candidate for an upgrade as would the weapons tray if eaglemoss have not already. Tony Happy Modelling

Tony I know Chloe and Corrie from model Modz and they are planning upgrades for the Db5.Corrie has a fully built db5 so I am sure they will have stuff. I actually forgot I even signed up for the DB5.it was last year and then I started seeing people on FB get parts and next thing I knew I had parts too. Carl
