I always wanted a Dirty Harry action figure until I released he would just look like a Geography teacher in a tweed jacket and leather patches on his elbows! As much as this is appealing, it's kind of "Man in suit" action figure. It could be anyone. )

Suit looks nice though. And knowing me, i'd fall in love with it. Spectre Poster version would be amazing.

Impressive figure! Even though they're not accurate with the PTS suit, the little C&J Camberley's are perfect, even have the dainite soles!

I hope to get that set myself, or just the modified Glock combo from the PTS. Am I too much of a Bond fan? The suit Craig wore in that scene to me, as I sat there in the theater, was so distinct with the check print on it and the close fit on Craig, which the blue suit in the set misses.

There's also a set coming out for the snow outfit Bond wore in Austria; that set is around the $50 price point, but doesn't include a body, weapons or any other accessories which is frustrating a bit, since Bond had very distinct sunglasses and gloves from the Austria sequence, not to count the pistol he used.

Superado... Another company is doing a very good replica of the funeral scene suit as well... I plan on just using the double monk strap shoes from the "Guess Me" release with this set.. (then swapping the shoes from this over to that set.. Plus if you check Poptoys (1/6 company) they have a line of suits coming out next quarter, one of which is an excellent 1/6 almost there replica of the London chase scene suit from Skyfall.. (only really big miss is that it is a 3 button as opposed to a 3 roll 2.. curious if that can be fixed with an iron)

That looks great! The coat looks particularly good.

About the Skyfall suit, the actual suit is not a three roll two like in Spectre or Quantum of Solace. The lapels roll at the top button, and the horribly tight fit of the jacket pulls the lapels open. That's one of the aspects the replica makers like Magnoli and Baron got wrong. They also didn't slant the pockets.

Here's the Poptoys grey striped suit.. Plan on obviously ditching the vest then tweaking the lapels a bit...



Have been building custom figures for years... However, for about the last ten years I have focused primarily on custom made Indiana Jones gear which I have sold to customers all over the world... Pretty much burnt out on that stuff but it brings in steady money.. Have open orders to the UK, Spain, HK, and a few here in the states right now.. (I build scale belts, holsters, and whips) About to start developing a pattern to build the SPECTRE shoulder holster in 1/6 which will be a good challenge what with all of the fine details involved...

I hope to one day be able to order (and afford) your leather Indy accessories! I have a SS Indy currently in pieces awaiting a Marx horse conversion.

For what its worth.. although most people over the years buy it all at once.. I have had collectors just pick up a piece here and a piece there.. If you get to the point of just wanting to pick up a few pieces over time I suggest holster first...then the whip.. then the belt.. and last the bag strap... The holsters really improve the look of the figures tremendously..

I'd prefer getting all the pieces, otherwise the stock versions would look weird!

I received mine in the mail the other day . I was surprised by the packaging I would have thought it would have been a little more along the lines of MI6 Jack. As opposed to putting the double o seven logo on there as well as Spector. Pleasant surprise lots of great small details.

Looks great! How much and where can I buy one?

Nice that the outer "box" makes a backdrop for the figure.
Sad that the manufacturer copped fan-art (the wax seal) for the exterior.
