I have all of the films on VHS, DVD, the complete Ultimate DVD set, the Bond 50 Blu-Ray set, all of the soundtracks on CD, several books about Bond movies (not the Bond novels, but books about the movies), 12" action figures of all of the Bond actors except Craig (if anyone know where I can get one, please let me know), a 12" Dr. No figure and a 12" Jinx figure (it's not a doll!), a couple of model cars, several magazines dedicated to Bond movies, such as the recent Life magazine dedicated to 50 years of Bond, autographed photos of Connery and Lazenby - I think that's it.
I'm impressed Blackleiter...that sounds like a fun collection. Are your 12" figures from the Sideshow series?
If you look closely my avatar has a 12" GI Joe figure in winter assault gear. It reminded me of AVTAK.
I was tempted to buy that LIFE magazine, but I already had the Entertainment Weekly 50th with the exact same photo of Sean on the cover.
Thanks, Firemass. It has been fun amassing my little collection, and I look forward to adding to it over time. My 12" figures are indeed from the Sideshow series. Do you know if they offer or plan to offer a Daniel Craig figure? It will come as no surprise to most of you that the pride of my collection is the autographed photo of Connery. I got it in Chicago when he was there filming The Untouchables. That was undoubtedly one of the highlights of my life as a fan. I'm sure you understand, Old Boy! )
By the way, thanks for pointing out the figure in the winter assault gear. The opening ski chase was one of the highlights of AVTAK for me. If only they had left out the Beach Boys! 8-)
Blackleiter, Have you looked at. http://www.ajb007.co.uk/topic/39928/daniel-craig-as-bond-action-figure/ thespyboys11, has some great tips on getting a DC figure from Cowboys and Aliens, looks very good.
Unless your request for a Daniel Craig figure, was more to do with more excercise and trying to Look
good on a Beach in a pair of Blue shorts. )

When I first read your Post NeverSayDie, I thought you
had a "Full size 10th Doctor " in your living room. )
Which would've been a little odd. A full size TARDIS is much
more sensible. ( Plenty of storage, inside )

Damn - busted again! )
But thanks for the information regarding the action figures. It appears that the only way I'll get the Daniel Craig version of the 12" action figure is to make one myself, and that, my friend, is very unlikely!
I've been a fan for a long time but really never got into collecting things. Mainly because in the last decade I've moved around quite a bit -- it's hard to justify collecting things and then think about moving them. I think one of the main reasons why I joined AJB was to admire other peoples collections. I never realized how expensive collecting Bond can be as well (most of my finances end up paying for travel and holiday ) ) but I'd love to collect more fanciful things in the near future, like saving up for Sophie Harley's algerian love knot and earrings.
The dedication and skill of the Bond fans here on AJB is amazing. In the collecting
forums, what thse guys can make ( Or Find ) is truly astounding. -{ Infact I didn't
even think there were so many different things to collect. )
I agree it can Be expensive, I'm not a collector myself I've Only a few things But I love
to se others collections, and good luck lilusako with the Sophie Harley's algerian love knot
and earrings. The most expensive thing I ever bought with a Bond connection was my
( now Very Old ) sony K800i. ) I still use it every day.

I also love Doctor Who too. I have a full size 10th Doctor TARDIS in my living room.
