    I had a good laugh during while watching the commercial posted on YouTube :))

    I just think they miss the mark with these, even the original re-issue jacks paint job was awful, here's two of them with a makover.

    Wow. Talk about RD cheapening their product ?:)

    RD over did it on their Skyfall supposedly 'Limited Edition', so I wonder what the sales will be like on those ugly suckers :s

    Glad I have my original Jack now.

    Cynical me wonders if RD took all of their unsold Skyfall Jacks, re-painted and re-boxed them as new Spectre Jacks with a view to only actually manufacturing more if demand calls for it.

    I have to say I agree with Bond's interior design tips, I never
    Really like it, to me it looks like something out of Poundland. :D

    Any chance of a quick tutorial on adding the crack, I'm sure there are loads of people here who would like to get some crack.

    I have a set of three originals (three sizes) + the new Jack but haven't yet got up the courage to attempt to enter the crack :v

    That was handy, I'm sure there are some out there but not seen any old ones. Even the new one is fairly rare now

    I would love to but unfortunately I did not do the painting on these puppies!

    RD says the new SPECTRE version will be out in the autumn

    Im curious as to why someone would want the cracked RD Spectre edition? I feel like people unfamiliar with Bond will ask "how did it get damaged?" and when you explain they'll be like "so you bought it to look damaged?". just seems odd too me.

    When it's in a display of Skyfall or SPECTRE props, it would make sense.

    These guys source original ones semi regularly, although pot luck if they are from the Skyfall accurate era:

    They have a Large and a Medium shown available on their website right now.

    What's the current going rate on the RD Skyfall edition ones at the moment? :v

    Not cheap for the vintage ones

    It's all down to being as screen accurate as possible, I know I don't collect for the benefit of none Bond fan friends, if they think it's odd then so be it, wouldn't be the first time I've been labelled as such :D
