Q glasses

JamesBondGuy · July 2012

I hope to get some help finding the model and brand of his glasses. Ray Ban has some that comes close, almost 100% if modified a bit.

look like Little JOE 90's glasses from years back with a modified Stud leg.

Bluetone · July 2012

Couldn't find the actual ones, but, there are plenty of look a likes if you search for 'crystal black two tone spectacles'.

Great! Thanks guys. Now the hunt is on to find the exact model and maker B-)

JamesBondGuy · July 2012

These are close http://www.vintage-brillen-shop.de/50s-two-tone-Hans

But not close enough compared to this high res image.

I think they are the most screen accurate.

Good luck - Q is out of stock

JamesBondGuy · August 2012

Maybe I already ordered

JamesBondGuy · August 2012

But not from that dealer, they don't ship to Denmark.

HalfMonk HalfHitman · August 2012

A heads up if you buy that mug on Ebay - the seller Toynk shows the correct one, but what came in the mail was from this:

sruzgar · August 2012

Well I hope they accept retyurns, think thats where I got mine from!

HalfMonk HalfHitman · August 2012

Let me know how much trouble they give you. Everywhere that sells the mug using the image of the mug seen in the trailer, the description fits the one I got to a "t", down to the manufacturer (Wild and Wolf).

Gadget Meister · August 2012

Just got a full refund from them, from a nice lady called Brenna, with no needto return the item {[]

JamesBondGuy · August 2012

So everyone that sells these scrabble mugs from Wild and Wolf has the wrong font?

Gadget Meister · August 2012

JBG
No that's not the case, I have 4 of the Wild & Wolf Q mugs sitting in front of me (Ordered before the rush and before they were openly ID'd on this forum) It appears that W&W do two different fonts. The Tonyk issue was that they are advertising the correct font and supplying the incorrect one. I was hoping that Brenna would have changed the ebay ad by now but this hasn't happened. If you all hit her with refund requests then this may spur her on to chage it. It appears that all sellers are now nil stock on the correct Q mugs.

JamesBondGuy · August 2012

I guess some of the sellers are going to make alot of refunds on Q mugs. I bought a W&W but not from Tonyk, it should arrive next week. Just hope I don't get any problems to get a refund if it turns out to be the wrong one.

minigeff · August 2012

Just to clarify people, this is the correct mug;

And yes, it is indeed from wild and wolf;

Mine arrived with a smashed handle so I'm awaiting a replacement. I stuck the broken mug back together to use as a pen pot. My only worry now is a) the seller I got it from has a replacement to send me, b) they send the correct font and c) it gets here in one piece this time.

Fingers crossed.

Here, let me keep the frenzy going, see the porcelein bull dog on M's desk?

That is a vintage Royal Doulton Unionjack Bulldog - lets the hunt begins

I heard it got better role than the mug

danjaq_0ff · August 2012

WOW Kan, we have known this since the trailer first came out, but the price phewwwwwwwww

and there are 3 sizes so good luck

texas007 · August 2012

yes, forgot to mention they do come in three sizes

)

And if you are very sick - you can buy all three - I know somebody just that sick :v

minigeff · August 2012

i was looking into the dog but its just too pricey and daft for me.

one went recently on ebay for £100, and all the glaze had come off it, the blue in the flag was faded and gone, the red was orange as well so obviously someone had it sat on a window sill for a while. i looked into having it repaired but the price of the resto plus the seller's arrogance = no deal. then some nutcase paid a ton for it

)

what would be good is if someone got one and took a mould off it, i'd buy a resin copy.

texas007 · August 2012

Sound like a wonderful idea :v
I'll be in too

better tell someone who'd be interested in doing it then kan

texas007 · August 2012

I doubt this will ever happen - but if someone wants to do it, I'll buy one to support the project

JamesBondGuy · August 2012

If anyone makes a resin copy I'm in. Just sad it's gonna get blown up in Skyfall, so I'll say the mug has a better role

sruzgar · August 2012
