Gilbert US Bond figures

Bleuville

At a local Toyfair I picked up 3 examples of the Gilbert Bond figures (ten altogether)
of M, Moneypenny and Dr. No at £5 each. (without packaging)
The dealer said 50 examples of these 3 were found in a warehouse.

Would they be originals or have there been more recent reproductions.
Have looked at photos on the net and they are the same figures, I think.

They could be genuine, loads of them were made. Looking on ebay they go for pretty much that price.

THere were copies done some years ago by misguided souls and at a time when the figures were about £1 each original loose! The figures came in cases of 300 per figure from Portugal made 1965-1967. There are thousands and thousands of them in toy dealers stock and in collections.
