GREENBERG'S Guide to AURORA Model Kits. (1998)
From the Author
The whole story of Aurora and all its models
As a boy I loved building plastic models. For some reason, Aurora's kits just seemed to have a style or feel that hooked me. I built them all. Then I grew up, went to work and forgot about modeling for years. A while ago I discovered that there is a small world of model kit collectors, and I was hooked again. The grownup me is a professional historian, and I set out to reasearch and write the definitive history of the company and compile a descriptive list of all Aurora's models. This book is it. The book is based on interviews with company executives, engineers, sculptors, advertising men, and box art painters. I've found photos of many of the well-known Aurora kits, but also some of obscure kits and even models that never went into mass production. If you've liked my "Classic Kits" columns in Fine Scale Modeler magazine, you'll love this book.

Thunderbirds: A Complete Guide to the Classic Series Fifty years after International Rescue’s first mission, Thunderbirds continues to entertain children and adults all over the world. On 10 September Panini Magazines publishes a lavish, 116-page ‘bookazine’ celebrating this timeless classic. Writers include former Fanderson chairman Chris Bentley, Andersonic editor Richard Farrell and Thunderbirds author Sam Denham. Highlights include: A detailed guide to all 32 episodes of the classic series and the original feature films. Previously unpublished interviews with Thunderbirds’ creator Gerry Anderson and director of photography Paddy Seale. A tribute to Derek Meddings by BAFTA-winning special effects director Mike Tucker. New interviews with voice artists David Graham, Shane Rimmer, Jeremy Wilkin and Matt Zimmerman, model-makers Alan Shubrook and Mike Trim, director David Lane and head of merchandising Keith Shackleton.

Fifty years is an important milestone, and it’s our aim to celebrate it in style.”
Robots and Spaceships (TASCHEN Icons Series)
Only a few left!
This ICON title will be of special interest to anyone fascinated by early space travel and technology, those who simply want to wax nostalgic about a bygone era of their youth, and of course to collectors and fans of 50s and 60s tin toys. The roots of today's toys can be seen in these precursors, notably in the early transformer robots. Taken from collector Teruhisa Kitahara's vast collection, which is on display in many museums in Japan, the robots and spaceships featured here are quite rare and give a wonderful overview of this era in the history of toys. A must for any toy lover!

The Essential James Bond by Lee Pfeiffer
'A superb compendium that will delight Bond aficionados and newcomers alike.' Radio Times
The Essential James Bond: The Revised Authorized Guide to the World of 007 is the bible for every 007 fan. Film by film, from Dr. No in 1962, it details every major character and actor to have ever played part in the Bond phenomenon - now including the latest Bond adventure, Die Another Day.
Meticulously researched and updated by two of the world's leading Bond authorities, The Essential James Bond gives an in-depth critical review of each of the twenty official films, with fascinating facts and behind-the-scenes stories. It features all the details an armchair secret agent needs to know, including the personalities behind the making of the most successful franchise in film history, the locations, the five Bonds and their accomplices, their tools and their enemies.
With the addition of over 250 rare production photographs, cinema posters and product advertisements from the archives of Eon Productions - many now seen in this edition for the first time - the phenomenon of 007 is spectacularly captured for ongoing reference as it enters its fifh decade.
