JAMES BOND - Original creations

Re: OFFICIAL JAMES BOND THREAD

And I don't even think HT would be interested in a 007 line at this point. Maybe a something from the new film or a one-shot DX Connery, but dudes in tuxes are not really their thing. I mean, even the most interesting Bond villain is just a guy in a suit.

When a company is making Iron Mongers and Batmobiles, crusty British spies from 30-40 years ago would be a step back.

you speak the truth!

These are the kinds of things a company like Blitzway should tackle.. well you know it won't be Bond regardless but still...

Even still the idea of a DX connery could work, they could make it a legacy sort of thing over a few movies. Give him a tux, a scuba set, the flying jat pack and maybe a goldfinger spy outfit... or maybe the Honey Rider beach outfit... and random gadgets etc. would at least be more interesting, but i'll keep living out that fantasy in my own head.

Respectfully disagree.
I get what you're saying but I think Hot Toys would LOVE to put out an easy sell figure that didn't require a year of R&D and work just to figure out how to produce.

A single Connery figure (not from any particular movie), perhaps with two jackets (white and black) and the standard Bond gadgets (gun, martini glass, etc...) would be easy to produce at a significant jump in quality from the old SS figures and an easy sell.

....of course I'd buy the 1/6 Aston Martin DB5 as well but I'll take what I can get

Re: OFFICIAL JAMES BOND THREAD

Have just received Iraqesd1's Daniel Craig headsculpt and it is a thing of absolute beauty, although it's bloody huge as people have been saying!

I was wondering if, with your collective years of experience and trained eye, you guys could recommend a body for him that would make his head look less big, but still fit a Bond type suit.

Other people seem to have put large heads on large shouldered bodies, however I can't find any non-narrow shoulder truetype bodies on eBay!

Do you know of another body type that has comparatively large shoulders?

A boardmember mocked one up on an ACI body (see attached): https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330607668134

I also saw this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130576597229

Thanks for your help,

Ben

Nice suit and gun Platty!
I like it!

Re: OFFICIAL JAMES BOND THREAD

The suit and gun look great. In addition to Josh's great Tom and Joy sculpt, I just found this upcoming Medicom release on the Toy World forum:

The problem I have found with Medicom is their painting can fall short of the prototype. Young Indy comes to mind.

Update: Just saw that these Medicom figures have their own thread:

Thanks my friend!

I am hoping it will be in scale with Hot Toys as well. Here is what looked like behind glass at Medicom exhibition.

Maybe it's just wishful thinking that this looks slightly big for the Medicom body in the picture
I am also hoping the paint job is not messed up too much

Ahh the Golden Gun. I'm looking at my Factory Replica signed by Sir. Christopher Lee and Sir. Roger Moore as I type. Great collectible!

Re: OFFICIAL JAMES BOND THREAD

There's been quite a bit of buzz online about the Bond 23: Skyfall. I decided to bump this thread.

Awesome Largo customs, guys!




Here are my Daniel Craig Bond customs using the TTL head

Casino Royale

Quantum poster

Quantum climax (WIP)

I'd love to upgrade the QOS climax Bond to a Medicom Jake Lonegran, but I just can't justify $250+.

Re: OFFICIAL JAMES BOND THREAD

Hi Guys!!!
Here’s my custom LARGO figure.
The first two pics were just quickies. In fact, I placed the eyepatch on the wrong eye…LOL
The later shots show the completed custom.
Now to work on the Bond figure.
