I'll take whatever Bond we get.
But a Brosnan and Craig would be my main 007's.

Hot Toys - and frankly most 1/6 companies - will capitalize on the nostalgia factor, especially with GenX/Xennials/elder millennials being the principal buyers of their figures. This is why I remain cautiously optimistic that we might get some Goldeneye figures as one the big, early splashes for a *wow* moment.
Pre title sequence GoldenEye Bond and Trevelyan would be so great. Still my favourite opening sequence.

If a Brosnan Hot Toy isn't wearing an Omega we riot!

When I do a re-watch of the Bond movies I mostly watch from Connery up to and including Dalton, so all of Moore and the one Lazenby movie. I have seen and own all the newer ones on disk but for me I just prefer the classic era. I think Connery and Moore are the iconic Bonds. They were always on TV at Christmas when I was young.
I can't wait to see all the accessories each figure comes with, from watches to gadgets to guns.
I’ve never seen any of the non-Craig Bond films and Connery is the classic for sure, but I think it’s safe to say Hot Toys will definitely do Craig.
Wich Goldeneye characters we might see? Bond, Alec and Xenia?
He was pretty good. I had my doubts when he was first cast because he kind of looks like a monkey, and he’s blonde — which defies logic as there are clear descriptions of Bond in the books. But if people are honest, the only good Craig Bond movie was Casino Royale— the rest got increasingly bad. Quantum was forgettable, and Spectre sucked (especially that horrible interpretation of Blofeld — “Oh boo hoo! I have daddy issues so I created an entire multi-billion dollar world-wide empire to get back at one guy my daddy adopted!” I mean, what the f#$k!). So, maybe Dan himself wasn’t bad, but 4 out of 5 movies sort of sucked.Craig? Terrible? What are you saying at all
I never watched No Time to Die cause of how subpar Skyfall and Spectre were (I’ve completely forgotten Quantum of Solace lol). They’re alright movies but ultimately, nothing to write home about. Casino Royale is the only one I’ve rewatched a good amount of times and deem great. Which is why I’m hoping they make the dinner jacket look
I dunno I really loved Skyfall at the time. I guess it has lost something in the time since with things like the bad guy letting himself be caught, interrogated and then escaping precisely as planned becoming such a cliche.

If it’s Skyfall you’re ******.
Won't exactly be Christmas will it

I would say Casino Royale and Skyfall are by far the best of his. They also happen to be among the best Bond movies overall. To me, Quantum is the only truly bad Craig movie. I didn't find Spectre or No Time To Die bad per se, but they're definitely forgettable compared to Casino Royale and Skyfall.

That’d be the third version of “Casino Royale.”
If there’s only one 007 story to pick, you wouldn’t go wrong with the only one that’s been done three times.

(CR was also the best of Fleming’s novels.)
Pretty much. Admittedly, I’m not a Bond franchise diehard, but Casino Royale (2006) was my introduction and I’m nostalgic towards it. I’ve seen Skyfall a couple times and Spectre in theaters but that’s the extent of it.
Thinking about it, when you look at Brosnan's era people only want to remember his first movie aswell, GoldenEye.
Maybe in future there should just be one movie per actor.

I love all of Pierce's films. He was my Bond growing up.
It gets a lot of flak but I really like Die Another Day. It's a guilty pleasure, I would easily get figures of Graves and Zao.
Toby Stephens also plays Bond in the radio dramas, and he's bloody brilliant in them.

Mine too, kinda. For GoldenEye I would have been starting secondary school. The World is Not Enough was my Leaving Cert movie. I have earlier memories of watching Roger Moore's films on TV so in a way he too is my Bond.
Timothy Dalton you would think should figure in there somewhere, especially since License to Kill was the first Bond I ever saw in the cinema. I guess his films just never quite struck the right chord with me.
