This is not a review just a heads up of information I found on Movieweb about the upcoming release of this set.
MGM Home Entertainment will give fans of the unprecedented film series a view to a thrill with the release of the James Bond Ultimate Collector's Set on November 6, 2007. Featuring the complete MGM Bond library in The James Bond Ultimate Editions Volumes 1-4, recently restored and re-mastered for optimal sound and picture quality, as well the most recent 007 installment, Casino Royale starring Daniel Craig. The James Bond Ultimate Collector's Set includes all the fast-paced adventures, high-performance sports cars, futuristic gadgets, narrow escapes, explosive battles and the sexy, bold and brazen Bond girls, along with hours of extras, offering plenty of time to bond with Bond. Presented on two-disc special edition DVDs spanning 42 discs, each mission grants all-access to the chronicles of the agent's storied career from the Bond archives, including deleted scenes, rare interviews, documentaries, featurettes, interactive film guides, music videos, audio commentaries and more. The James Bond Ultimate Collector's Set will be available for the suggested retail price of $239.98 U.S. / $269.98 Canada. Prebook is October 10th, 2007.
Each film included in the James Bond Ultimate Collector's Set has recently been restored and re-mastered and presented in their original aspect ratio, with original burned in subtitles and captions, mono and stereo sound (in addition to 5.1 DTS Audio). The set features hours of bonus materials including audio commentaries on every Bond film, behind-the-scenes featurettes, documentaries and more. For specific information on each special feature, please consult the James Bond Ultimate Collector's Set fact sheet atwww.mgmpressroom.com.
Spanning more than 40 years beginning with the original London premiere of Dr. No on October 5th, 1962, the James Bond 007 films have become one of the most popular franchises world-wide. Packed with an arsenal of bonus materials from EON Production's archives, this mega-collection is a must-own for James Bond zealots, whether their favorite 007 is Sir Sean Connery, Sir Roger Moore, George Lazenby, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan or Daniel Craig, the latest interpretation to introduce himself as "Bond, James Bond."

 Looks like it is just repackaged from the 4 volumes earlier this year. November 6, 2007

I looked at this set in the store today and it really appears as if the contents actually are the 4 Ultimate Collectors Volumes inside this case with Craig's Casino Royale along side. And by the contents being the 4 Volumes, literally, it looks like they are inside this black box.
I opted for the Ulimate Collector's Bundle for $179, instead of this, since I purchased Casino Royale when it was released, and I am really just looking for all the previous movies from Connery to Brosnan in the remastered 2-disc versions.
Also of note, if you want all the Bond films- you have to order Never Say Never Again as a separate item, that is not part of the MGM/UA library.
Region 1 is Shortchanged Again September 4, 2007

I am deducting 1 star because the packaging is not worthy of the ultimate James Bond set.
While Europe and parts of Asia get the stunning attache case box set, the US and Canada get only a cardboard box. OK. A shiny cardboard box.
Inclusion of Casino Royale, notwitstanding.
Are you listening, MGM?
 Great content, awful packaging August 25, 2008

Yes, it's all 21 movies with 21 bonus discs. All that's phenomenal. But the packaging is awful. That gorgeous box in the picture? It's the flimsiest fold-and-assemble cardboard out there. Inside, the movies are not presented in chronological order. Instead it's vol. 1-4 of the Ultimate Edition, stuck in this flimsy box. They're all thin-line cases with the liner notes stacked to the side in the box. You can't put them in the individual cases with their respective movies. Sure, you could buy 20 blank cases, but then it wouldn't fit in the box they gave you. Now all that's for the first twenty. Then stuck on the end, is the normal 2-DVD package of Casino Royale. It's added on like an after-thought.
This is great product, but with the absolute cheapest way of presenting the material imaginable. It's in no way comparable in quality to the Star Trek ten movie set. Truly, all they did was stick the old, hodge-podge Ultimate Edition sets and the Casino Royale two disc in a flimsy box.
CHEAP.
I'm okay with it because I got lucky and bought in on the $95.99 release day 24-hour super sale (which goes to show you just how much they're marked up). If I'd paid over $200 for this, I'd be livid.
With all that said, the movies themselves look great - digitally remastered, etc. Again, great content, very amatuer presentation.
 Get Individual Sets and Casino Royale Instead December 8, 2007

You'd be much better off to buy the individual Ultimate Sets and Casino Royale separately. This puts the cost at $148.95 instead of $224.99 for this set. Buy buying the sets and Casino Royale individually, you save $76.04, and you get the same exact thing.
That aside, these sets (and Casino Royale) are well worth your money, even if you own the previous sets (as I once did, I have now sold my old sets).
