The last "making of" book (TWINE) was a real disappointment with very little insight into the actual filming process. I guess that's why they switched formats. The Bond on Set books show the filming process very well without having to resort to uninspired journalistic-style prose. I own all making of books for Bond movies and once you've read them, you only come back for the pics (except, that is, for Roger Moore's fascinating LALD diary). I almost never pick up TWINE A COMPANION from the shelf.
Speak for yourself. While I don't pick up the TWINE companion daily - the "making of " books from LTK-TWINE are good resources.
Sure the TWINE companion was a bit weak, but that doesn't mean you should throw in the towel and say "Eh, just give me photos." You honestly would rather have that then something that delves into the film making process, interviews the principals, shares their thoughts on what's important in a Bond film, gives biographical information, etc.?
Yes, an official making of will always be the sanitized version of how the film was made, but I'd rather have that then just a set of pictures.

Part of me says 'oh stop it with the collector's editions', but then if people want 'em, why not?

I think that appears to be the case. I bet this ends up really hard to get if it is published at all!Is it possible that the premium priced collectors edition of this book has been canceled?

Chapters has cover art, but it looks very Casino Royale, so it may just be prototype artwork.

The UK cover is shown over at MI6, suitably moody.
