Actual Skyfall ties (and 3 button suits while we're at it)

This is probably a far reach, but prob on some other people's minds as well. Does anyone here have any ties or contacts within Tom Ford?
As we have all seen, the ties that were labeled as "the Skyfall ties" we're clearly not in the film, and we have yet to actually see any of the actual ties used (though some of us have been lucky enough to find classic width ties in the same patterns. BTW, if you were lucky enough to get one of those 8 blue ties, I would love one....). The same with the suits. While I would love to have the Prince of Whales suit from Tom Ford, the only one I've seen has only 2 buttons and peak lapels, and just doesn't look appeasing at all.
My request is that we somehow make a push for these ties to become available, even if it means just having a special order case where they are made as people order them, of course with first dibs going to ajb members..... Who's game?
And better yet, where do we start....

Ps - the "wrong" ties were labelled James Bond (not Skyfall)
As for the ties, I and a few others are working on getting more made. Some may remember the extreme hassle with trying to get the QoS ties remade which ended (mostly) in a failure. Although the ties were not remade for bond collectors, the remaining fabric for each tie was used to make skinnier versions and a small selection of each was sent to various tf stores so there may be hope. Tom Ford is a great company, but they are designers first and foremost (vs costumers). By that, I mean that catering to "bond fans" isnt a top priority. in my experiences...
