WTB: "Quantum of Solace" soap dispenser

This might be one of the most riduculous topics I ever created but since I want to buy a decent soap dispenser I recalled instantly that I saw a nice one in the movie, in the scene where Bond is checking out the Bolivian hotel suite in the Grand Hotel. Here is a picture, I have no bloody idea who made it but since there seem to be a text all over the bottle maybe one of you guys will recognize it? I know, it won't be easy.

It's hard to get the sarcasm sometimes, especially that English is not my primary language... MrZaritsky has a Bond related chandelier, so a bottle of soap is not that weird in the end!
Exactly! XD Anyway, sometimes I wish QoS or CR were released in 4k - imagine how many new things could be identified... Like soap dispensers lol.
It looks like a branded black plastic toilet cleaner bottle with a soap pump stuck on the top!
What's a Bento container? Is that like a Burito or Spicy wrap?
Think of a multi-compartment lunch box where each compartment may or may not be separable from the rest.
There is one that looks like R2-D2. The legs are spoons. Not that I have one....it won't be out until late September, 2015.
Identifying said soap dispenser is going to be tricky. Firstly, identify whether the hotel room was a set or not.
If not, it's a bit easier because you can identify the hotel and then ask them what brand they use.
If it is a set, more tricky as it may not be a real brand but just any old set dressing.
How about this as a starter for 10 :

It appears to be out of production now so you'll have to hunt around. It's also not listed on the maker's website either from what I can tell so but now to avoid future disappointment.
Oh and if anyone wants to put that info on their website feel free, just don't take all the credit, I searched for 5 hours to find that.

A few Bond films are being remastered in 4k for cinema release...CR is one of them...
Great find, MG -{
Wow good research skills. Well done
Jeez, I owe you a beer Jeff!!!! This is amazing, this site fails in surprising me :O Thank you so much, seriously!
Seems it's nowhere to be found currently, I guess the link provided isn't working either because the shop has not updated their stock?
Personally I'm not into actually theoretically smelling like bond, but I can appreciate we all have our little whims and interests.
Hope you find yourself a bottle, but I think it's gonna be difficult for you, good luck.
As for dedication etc etc, you have micro to thank as having woke me up in the early hours and with me not being able to get back to sleep, I thought what better thing to do online but use a grainy image to look for and identify an obsolete generic black bottle of soap that's seen for little more than a few milliseconds on screen.
The devil makes work for idle thumbs, but I've no idea what evil bastard drove me to search for your soap.
Now, back to my research, I'm trying to find out what brand of bog roll Hans Solo has hanging in the falcon's refresher. Don't knock it, I got a thing for bog roll accuracy.
