Big Chief Studios James Bond Series

[Mike86]

I might be tempted by a Dalton Bond if he’s revealed soon. My personal favorite Bond actor.

 

[SIGinthesky]

I would be too, since its Midnight Blue.


Anyway, I totally get the color diversity of the shelf where too many black figures tends to blend together and look dull -- like Jedi Luke, Mad Max, Bond, Neo, Batman, Terminator, Vader, etc.

But I think as colorful as it is, that yellow ski outfit from TSWLM is a bit... loud. Besides, the tuxedo IS Bond's uniform... and no one wore a double-breasted tuxedo like Roger Moore.

So true... no one wore a double-breasted tuxedo like Roger Moore...

Dalton Bond was in the background of one of BCS's pictures previewing the LALD production figures.

It’s supposedly the next release. Either that or this rumored deluxe no time to die.

In limbo but shown also are Red Grant, blofeld and Q.

 

[Mike86]

I wonder if they?ll make a version from The Living Daylights or License to Kill.

 

[ileg01]

Why aren't they producing some Bond Girls?

A Dalton Bond would be nice to have, but honestly it's so incredibly long between releases that it's hard for me to get excited about any new BCS figure now.

 

[Mike86]

These Bond figures weren’t on my radar. Now I’m kind of looking at the Connery Dr. No Bond.....

Although Moore from Live and Let Die is a more unique look.

People on envy have been telling me the Chinese postal service is shut down on account of the Coronavirus but I cannot find any confirmation online

I need to send several heads to China asap, but all shipping from Latvia and Russia to them is closed from 04.02.

Looks like License to Kill... although I'd prefer The Living Daylights. Here is a pic from their site:

Doesn't look like Dalton....

Kinda wish BCS didn’t do rehashes of the Sideshow Bond character selections no matter how much improved they are.

 

[Raymond F.]

I prefer the rehashes. Sideshow did most of the crucial renditions the old ones which are basically vintage toys now simply can’t be displayed unless you’re just after nostalgia factor.

I do agree though the dalton likeness is the only one very off.

Yeah, the nose rub issue with the Goldfinger figures and the delay associated with the factory switch for the LALD figures seems to have taken the wind out of the sails for many people. Hopefully BCS is past that now. The LALD production delay was for a good reason that will hopefully bear out.

Speedier releases should help in the future, too, if BCS can stick to it. The expected release date for the Dr. No figures (October 2020) is about a year after the pre-order went up. That's pretty standard these days and better than the two years its taken for the LALD figures, which I ordered on February 2, 2018.

I think BCS could generate a lot of excitement if they mixed in more Bond girls (only one so far); got around to making some fan favorites like Scaramanga and Jaws in addition to getting at least one version of every Bond; and if they threw in some figures from Craig's tenure to keep things fresh for younger fans who aren't partial to 40 and 50-year old movies. Personally, one of my most wanted is a Vesper figure in her purple dress from Casino Royale.

So LALD must not be done or even shipping- add six months more at least

People best strap in, there is going to be an awful lot of this going around for the forseeable future. I've already had three different companies email me with similar unspecified/unknown length of delay advisories, so I suspect many of us should expect quite a dry period for releases coming up. How long that will last, who can tell, but can't blame any of the manufacturers for this one. In fact I suspect many companies are going to have their own cashflow problems the longer this stretches on, could even sink a few if it stretches out too much. The margins some of these guys survive on are thinner than you might think...

Not a good time to preorder from small 3rd parties.

Agreed, 100%
