I was not able to attend the recent Chiller where George Lazenby was in attendance. Unfortunately, Halloween was not a good day for Chiller since I have little ones. Ed was nice enough to stand on line to get George Lazenby's autograph for me. He's one of my favorite Bonds in one of my favorite Bond movies. For me OHMSS eclipses both YOLT and DAF which is damn near blasphemy since I am a die hard Connery fan. Anyway, here's the picture. Thanks Ed.
So, what sharp little eyes you've got...wait till you get to my teeth.

and i am sure he will say that you are the one who is wrong Ed once hes looking down a barrel in the shape of a Golden pen )
''this is a 4.2 Waterman, the most powerfull, fountain pen in the world, and it could blow your head clean off! do you feel lucky?'' ) )
I hope you didnt chat to george for too long since you are still Radioactive, Jeez ! Ed, keep it in the Lint container PLEASE ! )
I think if you asked Mr. Lazenby about that prop Glovebox, he would say i dont even remember Driving an Aston, Who is Diana Rigg? where am I ) no old George aint that far gone yet.
its funny though when you talk to actors etc about props in films they hardly remember certain things yet designers on the films etc can tell you every little detail as if it was yesterday.

In fact, my buddy who was standing in line with me, asked him about Bruce Lee and the GAME OF DEATH film he never completed due to his untimely death.
George stated that both he and Jim Kelly (who had appeared with Lee in ENTER THE DRAGON) and was in the same room signing autographs) were to have appeared in the film. He pointed towards Kelly and said "He's stealing my thunder today"
Kelly was definitely the surprise star of that room. The lines for him stretched out the door and down the hall. Don't get me wrong...George had plenty of fans waiting to see him as well.
This, however, was Jim Kelly’s first appearance at these type shows and his fans couldn't get enough of him. He was EXTREMELY personable and very surprised to see the kind of turnout he had received.
Anyway...George stated that "that guy (Bruce Lee) was full of energy. He was always up. He called me at 3 O'clock in the morning saying "George, I have a great idea I want to tell you about in the morning...then he died!!"
Spooky, huh?

i love how inacurate the replica mocked up rocket belt is on his back
