Atlas Editions – The Jaguar Collection

Along similar lines to the excellent Ocean Liners collection that Steve has posted I spotted that Atlas editions are doing a collection of classic Jaguar car models.

It follows the same sort of format with issue 1 being priced at £1.99 and the second issue also being sent out at a discounted price.

In the first issue we get the Jaguar Mk 2 along with a rather nice print of the car which would look very nice in a frame.

The cars are scaled at 1:43.

The second model in the collection will be the Jaguar E-Type along with a print and a DVD entitles “Best of British – Jaguar”.

The models seem quite nicely detailed and finished.

Before taking out my subscription I did check on the number of planned models and been advised that at present they are aiming for around 31 models but as with anything the type and final number are always subject to possible change.

A few of the models they have planned are:

Jaguar Cars

Packaging could be a bit better as they put everything into a plastic bag and while the model itself is fairly well protected with an inner pre-formed clamshell style cover it does mean the actual Jaguar box the model arrives in gets a bit dented in the post.

Overall quite please so looking forward to issue 2 arriving.

Here are a selection of pictures showing the packing, the free gift and the model itself.

We sold loads of these at the Model engineers expo at xmass at three for a tenner

Looks like another great collection Tony regards Phil

Atlas Editions – The Jaguar Collection

The postman delivered the second model in the “Jaguar Collection” yesterday.

This month we get the Jaguar E-Type along with 2 free gifts.

One of the free gifts is a nice print depicting a soft top version of the car. The second of the gifts being a DVD entitled “Best of British – Jaguar”.

The cost of this month’s delivery comes in at £13.98 (£8.99 for the model and £5.00 postage)

Next month’s model will be the Jaguar XK140 and this also comes with an added bonus in the form of 6 coasters.

Packaging could be a bit better as they put everything into a plastic bag and while the model itself is fairly well protected with an inner pre-formed clamshell style cover it does mean the actual Jaguar box the model arrives in gets a bit dented in the post. Which does make me question the £5.00 postage and handling cost.

Overall quite please so looking forward to issue 3 arriving.

Here are a selection of pictures showing the free gifts and the model itself.

Hi Phil

Yes the mk2 was the first in the collection. There are some pictures at the start of this thread.
