We know the talented craftsman on these boards have access to the scan (I've got one with those exact serial and division numbers) - it's just that at the time Bond's ID photo as seen above wasn't out there, but now it is.
GM, that's terrible news. And Kurtyboy has gone silent...

Forget the paper tat. A really discerning Bond collector needs one of these....
Oh wow, fantastic duo there Asp! Is the drive the real film prop, because it looks bang on? Love the id as well, even has the correct holder -{

The drive isn't screen used, athough it's copied direct from the screen used ones and uses the exact same 1990's VCR greeblies in there. There are some subtle changes to those in the know so it can't be passed on as real in the future. The plastic case the board it sits in is from the original screen used production run. I only have this one and it is open to offers. It's about as accurate as you're gonna get apart from the originals.
just as a side note ,when we did a combined "op" with MI5 years ago, they didn't have photos or names on their version of a warrant card ,like we had ,ours as most of you know was the force badge on the left side on a flap ,and your photo id on the right ,
Now these me just had a white enamel rose with the words REGNUM DEFENDE underneath it , just thought id chip in ,
I could do one but I don't have the scan that is apparently out there that is of better quality than what's been offered in the past. Someone clue me in.

I can't help with the scan of the card, but the issue is that when these talented folks were making theirs, the correct file photo of Bond was not available, and now it is.

Much like Special Branch, they did/do have a photograph, but says ‘DC 12345 is an officer in this force’
I've got the files for the card and card holders, just need the photo which I don't have. I've done them laminated before but can do them printed on plastic as well.

I'll put it together shortly and offer some up . My card printer won't be in for a month though. It's part of a work project I put together which will give me access a short walk from my office to 2 large-scale 3D printers, a laser cutter, CNC router, a vinyl/paper cutter-plotter, industrial sewing machine and a few other knick knacks.
Sorry for the warp and "proof." Force of habit. But here's a card I offered previously as part of my "Dead and Back" set that had the medical report, file folder, routing slip, ID and a few other things. It has the new photo on it now. Again -as soon as I get the printer up and running I'll start making these. Cedric, for being the first to help with the new image send me your address and I'll forward one gratis. Also remind me of this when I end up having some to offer.
Also, a few of these new tools will let me go back to another project I'd been working on that I think will solve a few tricky spots I was having a hard time figuring out in order to produce. This would be the Skyfall envelope set Q gives Bond with the envelope, airline tickets, hotel reservations and passport. If all goes well, the passport will be made with red leatherette paper with gold embossing. Getting the passport pieces cut and lined up properly is where I hit a snag. A Cameo Silhouette cutter will solve this problem for me.
Not sure yet, but probably less than what others have charged for something similar I'm guessing so start there. I've got to do the math on the supplies once I've got everything together. Shipping will be whatever actual costs to send out are.
Started working on this project a few years ago, casually, and finally have something to show now. I bought some tags last year, but they never arrived... After a second attempt, purchasing from another seller, they arrived today. Credit to everyone who has posted images of any production made SIS IDs on this forum, and the correct Craig portrait.
The back of mine have the usual detail - the magnetic stripe, crest, disclaimers etc. The back of the SF card is seen in the film - enough to see where the magnetic stripe is positioned.
^A different Q ID seen at Lego Creator and Spyscape exhibits. Bottom pic is mine, and the skin colour's very close to the orig, but seems rather green here. I suppose this is what Q looks like when forced to fly on a plane.
How come the different Q photo? Is it a genuine variant or fan replica?
Q's SP ID. His photo is not as hi-res as I'd like, but acceptable.
I've also done some work on the Moneypenny ID, as well as another character. MP's hair doesn't fit in the photo frame )
Always have an escape plan. Mine is watching James Bond films.

Just floating this one again. Anyone heard from Kurtyboy lately?
Not for a few years, unfortunately.
Is this the one:
I came across it some time back on internet and saved it - have been searching for the tie ever since !!

Looks great; excited to purchase when you're ready (and no need to source a holder if that's an issue; I've got one already).
