From
Dragon models in 1997, a figure kit of James Bond from the
movie Goldeneye.
Kit # 38301.
This
is a vinyl kit, 1/9 scale.
The
box says "Superhero Series", and I wonder what other
kits, if any, are in the series ? The box does not say.
The
likeness I would say is close, but not really dead on. Still,
it's a kit you don't see very often. And a nice addition to
any figure model collection.
The
kit includes the round base / stand. There are no paper directions
(at least, not in the kit I have). The model itself doesn't
not have many parts. I am guessing the back of the box is
used as a direction and painting guide.
I've
been wondering, that if I took the head off the T2
figure, and put it on this kit, I could make an Agent
Dogget from the X-Files. :-)

Best
of Bond James Bond - If you are a fan of the Bond movies and
particularly the various musical themes, this CD is a must-have
for your collection. Of course, the classic Bond theme is here
in its full orchestral glory. Other well-know classics include
"Goldfinger"
by Shirley Bassey (who actually sings three different Bond themes
offered here), "Nobody Does It Better" from Carly Simon,
and "Live and Let Die" by Paul McCartney and the Wings.
More recent Bond themes have been included as well, from the 80s
hits "For Your Eyes Only" by Sheena Easton and "View
to a Kill" from Duran Duran to "Golden Eye" (Tina
Turner) and "Tomorrow Never Dies" (Sheryl Crow) from
the late 90s Bond films.
The
James Bond Story - Bond, James Bond. Perhaps the greatest
fictional cinema icon ever. He first appeared on the big screen
in 1962 in Dr.
No, and has remained the most powerful action hero ever since.
The secret to his success is his adaptability. No matter what
tight spot he finds himself, he always appears to be suave, sophisticated
and cool. As a spy Bond is constantly reinventing himself, and
on the big screen he has done this five times, as Sean
Connery, Roger Moore, George Lazenby, Timothy Dalton and Pierce
Brosnan. The documentary looks at the different characterizations
each actor has brought to the role to discover the elements that
make up Bond. It also traces the character back to its origin,
the Bond novels by Ian Fleming, whose creation was semi-autobiographical.
From the gadgets to the girls, The James Bond Storyalso
features interviews with Q (the late Desmond Llewelyn), Maud Adams,
Jane Seymour, Terence Young (Director), Cubby Broccoli (Producer),
Ian Fleming and more, along with extensive film clips from Dr.
No
to The World is Not Enough. This action-packed documentary presents
an in-depth look at the quintessential spy who has a license to
kill.
Goldeneye
- This
James Bond is a bit more vulnerable and psychologically complex--and
just a shade more politically correct--but he's still a formally
attired playboy at heart, with a lovely Russian beauty (Izabella
Scorupco) as his sexy ally against a cadre of renegade Russians
bent on--what else?--global domination. There's also a seductive
villainous with the suggestive name of Xenia Onatopp (Famke Janssen),
and the great actress Judi Dench makes her first appearance as
Bond's superior, M, who wisecracks about 007's "dinosaur"
status as a globetrotting sexist. All in all, this action-packed
Bond adventure provided a much-needed boost the long-running movie
series, revitalizing the 007 franchise for the turn of the millennium.
