With direct homage to Thunderball we see the original Thunderball breather prop in the early part of the film in drawer in 007's MI6 office.
I think this info is a little out. If you look carefully at the start of the virtual shooting range sequence, Bond is sat at his desk and hears two silenced shots being fired next door, loading his P99, he gets up and we get a quick look at his desk.
I think the TB rebreather might be on the desk amongst other things, but it was my understanding that the original prop was long gone, so if it is on the desk it's a replica.
One thing is for sure, it's not in Pierce's drawers, he's just happy to have his gun in his hand.
Apologies Majik007collector, that will teach me to read the website referred to for context in future. Now of course I'm going to have to watch DAD again tonight to check that scene. The torture I put myself through is unbound
Barry, I guess these won't ship in the next month will they? I will be picking up stuff in the States then, if not I'll just have to wait for my next trip
Out of morbid curiousity I had a quick check of the DAD dvd last night.
It looks to me as the stuff on Bond's desk is just the cleaning kit for the P99 in a roll. I think you can make out the white cord of a pull-through.
I looked through the Q branch scenes as well and I'm afraid I couldn't see any TB breather prop anywhere. Maybe it is there but you need the bluray quality to see it?
The other possibility is of course that the view of the TB breather in Bond's draw was a deleted scene, but again I've never seen it.

Bit of a mystery tbh.
