    Wow, those are very nice! Do you have two separate figures? It's tough to decide which one to display him in if there's only one, considering how one good Craig sculpt is hard to get as it is.

    Thanks guys,

    Right now, I just have the one but I want to make a second.

    I'm not sure of the emblem on the hat. I had 2 green berets, each had a different emblem. I have a beige beret that looks like one Jamie Bamber had in that SAS series he did in England awhile back but I can't find where I put it.

    Very nice, I like them a lot. I particularly like the camouflage version. Although not an expert on the SBS, I have read a couple of books about them. The SBS used to be an elite unit of the Royal Marine Commandos and were drawn solely from the Royal Marines. So the green beret would at one time have sported the Royal Marine's cap badge. This has changed, now any member of any branch of service can apply to be an SBS operative provided they pass basic selection. If you are selected you must pass the SAS course before going on to the SBS course. The SAS have a higher profile in Great Britain and are greater in number and are often credited for SBS exploits in the media. The SBS are fewer in number and require more training than the SAS so to me they are more elite than the SAS. Sort of the elite of the elite (creme de la creme).

    The unofficial motto has also changed along with the insignia which may be the new beret device. The old motto was "not by strength, by guile", the new motto is "by strength and guile". The old insignia featured a frog, a parachute and crossed paddles, the new insignia features a sword and two blue wavy lines.
    So, what sharp little eyes you've got...wait till you get to my teeth.

    It's from a new DID action figure. Go to Ebay and search for "Dirk Kluge". I just purchased a second for myself.

    As an fyi, it doesn't look exactly like Craig in his Bond films. It looks more like a younger version of him with less wrinkles. Also, the cheeks and jaw are a little less chiseled than Daniels.

    It makes for a great young military version of him.

    I found my SAS Beret and took a new photo of the Camo version.

    Dak,
    THAT is one nice looking figure.
    I think the headsculpt is more than passing for a younger version of DC.
    I'd be proud to display that amongst my other Bond figures...off to ebay!!!

    I especially like the BHP MkIII.
    Very nice to see Bond with a Hi-Power.

    For anyone who wants to make this figure The head can be found by searching ebay for "Dirk Kluge" and you'll find the head.
    The body and camo clothes and guns can be found by searching google or ebay for "hot toys blues and royals regiment".
    The SAS Blue outfit can be found by searching ebay for "Dragon Nigel SAS" or "1/6 SAS"
    The berets can be found by searching ebay for "1/6 beret"

    It's that simple.

    I'd like anyone who'd want one to be able to make it. If some guy turns around and makes one and tries to sell it on ebay for $300 or some crazy figure I will consider him complete scum and a thief.
