Custom Bond Girl Barbies

My tributes to a couple of my favorite Bond Girls:





Even though Mattel did release a Solitaire, I wanted her dressed in one of the costumes I actually liked

Thunderpussy

Well done {[] , very nice.

James Brosnan

Very cool and unique. I would love to see more interpretations! much agreed. Nice work.

Thank you so much Thunderp and Mr. Brosnan I really appreciate getting the Bond fan perspective!

I very much want to make one of possibly my all-time favorite Bond Girl, Xenia. She's been produced a couple times, including in 1/6 scale by Sideshow but never in a costume I like.

Here are a couple more pics of Miranda and Solitaire, though:

Thanks, thespyboys!

I think I'd love to try a custom Tracy doll, too. She had so many great costumes, but they usually always make figures/dolls of her in her wedding outfit (which I learned recently was not a dress but pants!)

You're very welcome.
Several years ago I remember seeing a Barbie in the same Spanish riding outfit as Tracy in OHMSS.

That's eerie, as that's one of the costumes I'd thought about using, especially because I noted that Barbie, too! Chilean Barbie:

Also, Tracy's Piz Gloria costume with the hood and the fur (and Rigg's sublime acting and action in those scenes) is a favorite and would make a great custom, IMO.

Haha! Sorry for the late reply. I haven't found a Ken that gives off that 007 aura. I like those Action Man Bonds they did a while back, though.

Love it! I'm also a Barbie collector. I do have the OP and DN Barbies as well as the Chilean Barbie mentioned that I too intended to mod as a Tracy custom but never got around to doing.

Thank you! Please do post if you ever make Tracy in the Chilean outfit. I'd love to see it.
