Just for a bit of fun, and i know it has been done on previous years, what collectables/clothing/props are people hoping for this year, and maybe you could update on or after the 25th with some surprises.

Ive been good this year, so i know I'm getting this (so far)

[list=*]
[*]Sunspel Riviera,
Magnoli Spectre Polo
Picardi Glasses[/*]
[/list]

but i think i might be getting a Bond on set Skyfall book too...will have to wait and see...

    Good deal man! My list:

    - MQueen Stone Baracutta Harrington (my QoS cream TF Harrington alternative)

    - Matchless Spectre Jacket (should be here just in time for Christmas)

    Probably end up with some other odds and ends, but the above are the ones I'm most excited about. -{

    Getting a pair of Dent gloves, and hopefully a couple of extra magazines for my PPK, and a couple of hundred rounds of ammunition.

    Nothing bond related I don't think :# though I have a nice cashmere jumper coming from Mrs coop and we are treating ourselves to a mini break in Edinburgh in the first week of January. To be honest I've bought myself everything I wanted during the year!

    My two Bond related items are coming from my wife; the Anderson and Low On the Set of Spectre book, and a poker table so I can use my Casino Royale poker set properly:-)

    Ever since going down the TF rabbit hole this time last year, the struggle has been real.

    Well I missed out on a Billy Reed yesterday and thought why not it's the next best thing (going to be cold next week)

    Not as chunky as I thought but very warm and glad I went for a small as they are long!

    I looked at that, but pulled the trigger on the royale Altausse, having a brighter blue was more preferable for me than another navy jacket.

    Haven't seen enough pictures of folks in their Royale Altausse, want to see that blue in a few different environments

    I really like that color, regardless of how screen accurate it might be. Plus, the color filters in Spectre probably washed out the true color of the coat, so only someone who owns the original can offer insight into the real color.

    I hope Royale re-issues them at some point. Would love pick one up. -{
  • Bond44Bond44 Vauxhall CrossPosts: 1,581MI6 Agent
    Yeah that's the reason I went for Navy as I was unsure about the Royale colour. I know they screwed with the lighting in SPECTRE but it just seemed very bright to me. Navy seemed more SA for me personally but haven't seen a Royale in the flesh yet (doubt I will ever see a Dior in the flesh)

    It stands out doesn't it, like you said it's a nice variation to have a blue that isn't navy or midnight. On dark mornings when I open my wardrobe for a jacket I have to go by touch alone as its all navy or black! This might make a nice change, might pick one up next run.

    That's the reason I went with it, it actually photographs brighter than it is, from what I've read the Dior is just a smokier colour but still far brighter than a navy, the blue I would say the royale is somewhere between royal blue and French navy. It's a great coat though and warm I'm very pleased with it.

    I am hoping for a Roger Moore autograph from Bond Stars and one other item that escapes me at the moment.
  • MFisherMFisher Posts: 747MI6 Agent
    Picked up a few things..

    Folio Society FRWL
    Magnoli Rome Tie
    Dents gloves (Skyfall)
    Had another custom suit made through Oliver Wicks.. Styled this one to be similar to the Brown QOS suit

    As a side note... For Christmas, my girlfriend bought me a patrol rifle for work. (S&W MP rifle) We are authorized to carry ARs but have to purchase them ourselves. Up until now I always just carried our issue Remington 870 as my long gun. Just as a nod and a wink towards 007, I did replace the collapsible stock and pistol grip with the HK 416 furniture :) An actual 416 was definitely not in the budget.

    Just some J.Crew and Barbour items and a pair of Dents gloves.

    That's what I was thinking too. I missed the first one, so very interested in a V2
