I love swatch stick and wheel posts. Love 'em to pieces. I enjoyed those types of blog posts so much that while in Sally's I picked up some nail wheels of my own. I plan on doing the full collections I own first then moving on to similar polishes.
First up is the OPI Skyfall Collection. I remember when I first saw the press release for this. I couldn't believe there were so many 'identical' reds. I've already learned so much in such a short amount of time, I can't believe I considered them the same now. I will admit though that I'm biased against red and had they been any other color, I probably would have given them a second look and realized how different they actually were. Anyway the point of my rambling was to mention that I swatched the reds first and holy cow! I knew they were so different by now but wow, are they different.
Sorry for the flood of pictures. A few of them were camera shy so I figured more pictures were better. I did resize the pictures by more than half but they're still 1600 x 1200 px.

3: Die Another Day - 2 coats
4: Skyfall - 3 coats (super streaky and hard to work with. it was the only polish that frustrated me in this collection)
5: Casino Royale - 2 coats
6: Moonraker - 2 coats
7: Goldeneye - 2 coats
8: The World is Not Enough - 3 coats
9: On Her Majesty's Secret Service - 3 coats

11: Tomorrow Never Dies - 3 coats (way more purple than blue. couldn't get a good photo)
12: The Living Daylights - 1 coat (glitters really wanted to stick to other glitters but didn't take much effort to spread around.
