I think so. Now just need body which fit well for head size.

Live and let die will come out. I’m betting around March-June next year. But after that I’d be willing to bet a lot of money it’s dead. You MIGHT see that dr no Connery if that kickstarter thing works out but I think with the way this line is and it’s QC people won’t be willing to pay for something they’ve not seen in hand.
That is the most iconic James Bond incarnation of all time. Dr. No connery in a tux. It’s not even arguable. If that needs a kickstarter the line is as good as dead.
Sadly, and I say sadly because at the end of the day even after all the flaws it’s a good figure of something that’s special to me, odd job and goldfinger have been sitting at my LCS here on markdown for months. Lack of bond love sadly I think plays a part here too.

I'm still hoping to at least see their Craig Bond, since none of the customs have ever gotten quite close enough and he's one I'd really like to have.
Awful quiet here lately.
I had such high hopes. But despite the issues, I do believe the old Bond's generation is leaving us slowly but surely.

I think you sadly nailed it, my friend.
I agree with both of you guys... breaks my heart.

I think BCS want to concentrate more on Doctor Who. I think that is their main cash cow license.
I imagine they go where the money is like any business.

Very true, and, in that respect, Doctor Who has been bigger business for them than Bond.
They'd better hurry then... not sure how long Dr Who-ess will remain on television.
I would be curious to see if BCS offered a Skyfall set of Bond and Silva how that would sell, being a more modern Bond for the new generation.

I wish they would concentrate on Doctor Who. Maybe then I would have my 8th Doctor figure I ordered in April 2017.

While I have childhood nostalgia for the vintage Bonds, the truth is I would *love* a well done Craig Bond — in spite of my age (45) I’m still very much a product of contemporary media to a certain extent. I really enjoyed the Craig films overall.

I like most of the Bond films but Connery and Dalton are my favorites. I really want a Dalton Bond figure. I like Craig in the role and like his take on the character and I would like a figure of him too. I wonder who will portray Bond next.
I said it from the beginning as a huge hardcore bond fan I knew the line was going to be in trouble if they started it off with anything other than a Daniel Craig movie. Sadly even Goldfinger.
I have the figures my fair share of crap, I still think most critisism warrented, but I still see way crappier figures from way crappier lisences go a lot deeper than these have so it’s a bit sad.

Guys as a huge Bond geek, I would never imagined I would sell my Connery GF
Bond after I got him.
Honestly, for a “ Flagship release “ to kickoff the license
the Figure was not that good. The suit’s button was glued on
the material was like a cardboard and the body was ... well
it was un workable .
I had to take matters into my own hands and
get my own custom DC Bond made. I will show
you guys “my version “ of a Bond when my custom
figure is completed.
I hope the DR No Connery is a smash but I
am not very optimistic to be honest
