Casino Royale Display

The Bond Experience

There will be a few more things to add in and around this display but here is an update on the Bond display of the latest movie....Casino Royale!










And not quite finished but working on the Aston martin Cardio-Pak



And here is the corner that displays some memories from the USA Premiere of the film in Baltimore:






Other displays can be seen here (look under SPIES section) http://www.freewebs.com/zaritsky/

You must put so much time, effort and money into your displays. There unbelievable! Love to see it all in real life.

Sir Miles

Another great display - that must be a huge room you have there, Mantis )

Nightshooter

Mantis- why'd you go with the Omega on a steel bracelet? Bond wears it on a rubber strap.

Hardyboy

Geeze, Mantis. . .all those cool toys and a good-looking wife, too! I want to be you when I grow up!

The Bond Experience

LOL! You guys are the best....

NS, went with the Planet Ocean before I saw the movie and can replace the strap any time....but this is not the LE one.

The Bond Experience

EXACTLY my feelings as well!

Nightshooter

And mine.

Sir Miles

Mantis, why did you pick that particular run of cards ? I don't recall seeing that hand in CR ? And I have seen it a few times ;%

Mikep99

Looks like he has made it.

The Bond Experience

Ugggh, the cards were the Bond hand that I was going from memory....someone correct me on his winning hand and I will change it.

Nightshooter

I believe Bond had the 5 and 7 of spades, so I'm guessing that it was either a 4-8 or 5-9 straight flush. Can't remember which.

Bond wins with a straight flush - 4-8 of Spades.

EASY to change them.....danka!

No probs, Mantis.

I have to say that I'd love a room like the one you have - it must be great to have the room to show off all your film specific props/memorabilia. You've given me some ideas, but only on a smaller scale and a much smaller budget )

The Bond Experience

It is amazing what you can do with even limited room...to me it is not the size but the style in which one display's what they have....a collection thrown on a few wooden shelf just "exists" but a collection that sits in an environment truly pops!

Your quite right. The biggest problem I have though, is that I have very few, what you would consider, props - practically all my stuff is general Bond memorabilia. I will have a play-round with my stuff in the New Year - no point doing it before Christmas
