Ah, finally the sun is shining, ensuring that it's perfect weather for car booting this weekend. Will you be getting up at the crack of dawn and heading to your local boot sale in the hope of tracking down some finds? But before you start preparing your action plan to snap up rare diecast for 20p, make sure you pick up the latest issue of Collectors Gazette because you're in for a real treat! You could even sit outside with a chilled drink and have a read.

This month we've got plenty of collecting treats for you to uncover with the highlight being an exclusive in-depth interview with ex Corgi designer John Gilbert, who is selling his amazing archive of Corgi artwork and models at Aston's Toy Auctions next month. We even asked John to design our cover image for the issue and he's created something wonderful! Even better you can actually win this unique piece of art and make sure you take a look at John's other concepts online.

Elsewhere in this issue, we're celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Caped Crusader with a look at some of the more unusual Batman toys and we headed to Warlord Games in Nottingham to get the low down on this British toy soldier maker. Plus, we've got the usual selection of auction news, a round-up of new releases and everyone's favourite bargain hunter: Obsolete Oz.

You can pick up the June issue in stores, order online or try the digital edition. Even better, why not subscribe to make sure you never miss an issue and save some cash at the same time!
