    I'll take the shirt as is, if it's done. Thanks for the update!

    I'd also prefer to waiting a little longer and have the correct buttons for my shirt

    Paul,
    I want the correct buttons. You don't have to do any refund for me. I can wait for the correct buttons - no problem. But if mine is already completed with the substituted buttons you can proceed with the delivery and follow up with the right buttons. Thank you for the updates and all the effort in this project,

    Ditto this!

    Maybe when we get our shirts, we can get a note with it indicating which buttons we have. I would be game to buy the correct buttons at a later date and have them switched.

    Well

    considering all the time, trouble, and frustration everyone's sufferd with thsi project, I was bowled over by the support and understanding shown so far....

    made me once again glad we've been trying to get this done...

    big thx.

    In the meantime, let's give others the weekend to find the thread and chip in if they want to...

    I thought a pic of the actual buttons would be honest and up front...

    let me know if it changes anyone's mind.

    Oh and of course you will be informed which buttons you have once you receive the shirt...

    Cheers Paul

    Thanks again for all your hard work.

    Exactly as above, if that is okay with you ?

    Does that shirt have the cuff bands and adjustment tabs on the arms?
  • The Bond ExperienceThe Bond Experience Newtown, PAPosts: 5,490Quartermasters
    It absolutely does!
  • KittlemeierKittlemeier U.S.Posts: 432MI6 Agent
    Cool, I was under the impression they weren't lining them up. Can't even see the seams.
  • KittlemeierKittlemeier U.S.Posts: 432MI6 Agent
    I see now. On the left sleeve last pic, it looked like the inside of the back of the sleeve was showing, but it was the cuff. I've officially looked at this shirt too much.

    Paul,

    I can't wait to get my shirt. I'm hoping it has the correct buttons, but if not, I'll accept the substitutes until you can procure the correct ones. Thanks for all the hard work!

    Has there been a descision on whether to get the shirts shipped out this week? And impressive collection Mantis! I do though think you may have too much time on yours hands!
  • The Bond ExperienceThe Bond Experience Newtown, PAPosts: 5,490Quartermasters
    Strangely enough, Tallman, this doesn't take too much time at all....it's my version of building a ship in a bottle. I use the time to collect and display as down time.

    Mantis doesn't have too much time - guy must work like a dog to afford that collection! Love browsing that loot online {[]

    It was specially made by the same tailor that is making these. That is why this edition is so special and unique in the Bond collecting world.

    Mantis, where did you find the grey linen pants to match the shirt?

    May i just congratulate you guys on this quite amazing project. I mean most guys would just say: ah well the shirt don't exist, nevermind. But NOO not you guys, you chased it down like dogs at a race, in a good way mind!

    So well done you guys and well done AJB007 for bringing such excellent and like minded people together.

    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone.

    PS. The shirts look bloody fantastic.

    Dear guys

    Firstly thanks for your hard work regarding the shirt. I would be happy to get the buttons later on. Or if the shirt will be ready in new year i'll wait then.

    ps forgive my entries Blackberrys are difficult!
