I visited the MGM website and they do have a James Bond link. The other titles are under the heading..."Coming Soon." Has anyone heard what titles are due and when?
Also, looks like ebay fraud got me again. Check the link below and click on the seller's feedback...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3336473804&category=41521$22 for from Russia with love is too low. IMO it should be $39-$60. Do a search on this forum some guys bout it on line new for $22 - PM them to see if they ever got it.
I sold a ton of Bond on ebay - even bought some Grover cables with the profit :)
"The Living Daylights" will be re-released November 3rd 2003 along with an updated edition of the James Bond "Monster Box Set" of DVDs in Region 2 - just in time for Christmas!
The US may just get another box set to be released in time for Christmas 2003 and 2004 in 2 box sets instead
.
Then since all the mono versions are being remastered in 5.1 expect another round of releases starting around 2005. In order to maximize profit the next 2 releases may be the same special editions and then around 2005 or 6 the 5.1 first box set may come out.
The next Red Box set may have the DVDs from the old box set number 1.
In order to maximize profit they will be re-released every 5 years or so over a 3 year period.

Brian,
Here's the scoop from dvdfile.com:
"It may have taken a little while, but MGM Home Entertainment is finally set to re-release the Bond Collection 2 and Bond Collection 3 box sets on November 18th. Collection 1 is already available, and these remaining two sets will include the same special editions previously issued, even down to the cover art.
Collection 2 includes Diamonds Are Forever, For Your Eyes Only, From Russia with Love, The Living Daylights, The World is Not Enough and You Only Live Twice. Collection 3 includes Die Another Day, Live and Let Die, Octopussy, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Thunderball and A View to a Kill. Each box retails for $124.95, while the individual titles have been newly repriced at $19.95 a pop. And - yep - after January 19th, Bond will go on moratorium yet again, so get 'em while you can. (Although word on the street is to expect newly remastered versions of all the flicks, most likely starting in 2005. Stay tuned...)"
