DID 1/6th scale Roger Moore as James Bond (Officially Licensed) 12-inch collectible figure
Sir Roger George Moore, KBE (14 October 1927 – 23 May 2017) was an English actor. He is best known for having played Ian Fleming's British secret agent James Bond in seven feature films from 1973 to 1985. Moore took over the role of Bond from Sean Connery in 1972, made his first appearance as 007 in Live and Let Die (1973), and went on to portray the spy in six more films until his retirement from the role in 1985. He also played Simon Templar in the television series The Saint from 1962 to 1969 and Lord Brett Sinclair in The Persuaders! from 1971 to 1972 with Tony Curtis.
Live and Let Die (1973) is the eighth spy film in the James Bond series to be produced by Eon Productions, and the first to star Roger Moore as the fictional MI6 agent James Bond. Live and Let Die was released during the height of the blaxploitation era, and many blaxploitation archetypes and clichés are depicted in the film, including derogatory racial epithets ("honky"), black gangsters, and pimpmobiles. It departs from the former plots of the James Bond films about megalomaniac super-villains, and instead focuses on drug trafficking, a common theme of blaxploitation films of the period. It is set in African American cultural centres such as Harlem and New Orleans, as well as the Caribbean Islands.
DID is pleased to announce that they have been licensed by Roger Moore's Family and the famous Photographer Terry O' Neill to produce and release their first 1/6th scale Roger Moore 12-inch figure from Live and Let Die (1973). DID RM001 1/6th scale Roger Moore 12-inch collectible figure Parts list: Super realistic head sculpt, 12-inch figure Body, Palms for holding pistol, Black T-shirt, Black pants, Black belt (geniune leather), Black socks, Shoes, Brown holster (geniune leather), Revolver with 6 bullets (metal), DID base stand.

Action Figure Review of Blackbox Toys 1/6th scale Daniel Craig as 007 James Bond
continued from previous toy blog post...
I did two photo shoots of this Blackbox Toys 1/6th scale "Spectre" Daniel Craig as 007 James Bond 12-inch figure under different lighting conditions and they yielded different results. The previous post pictures were mostly shot in natural daylight whereas the pictures posted here were taken in a studio setting. The studio setting allows me to take pictures any time I want while shooting under natural light conditions means I can only shoot during the day when the sun is up.
I've always enjoyed taking pictures of my figures and that's how this blog got started. I wanted to share the figures I have, and the figures that are out there so that everyone who is a 1/6th scale collector or toy collector can have access to what's available in the market in order for them to be able to make the right decision on which toy or action figure to buy. I've gotten lots of nice feedback from like-minded people who have expressed their gratitude and appreciation for what I'm doing :) It's my passion that has kept me blogging all these years but words of encouragement are certainly great boosters.
This is undoubtedly the most definitive 1/6th scale Daniel Craig head sculpt I have ever seen or come across. There have been quite a number of 1/6th scale Daniel Craig as 007 James Bond 12-inch figures released over the years - check out my action figure reviews posted HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE. Many companies have tried to get the actor's likeness right but missed the mark until now. I'm glad not all the good sculptors are at Hot Toys or Blitzway, otherwise we'll be paying a lot more for this. It's nice to know great sculpts are still available with other companies.

Blackbox Toys 1/6th scale Daniel Craig as 007 James Bond in Spectre 12-inch figure Review 1
Spectre is the 24th instalment in the James Bond film series and the twenty-sixth overall. It is Daniel Craig's fourth performance as James Bond, and Christoph Waltz's first as Ernst Stavro Blofeld, with the film marking the character's re-introduction into the series. The story sees Bond pitted against the global criminal organisation SPECTRE and against their leader; Ernst Stavro Blofeld, who is revealed to be Bond's adoptive brother as he attempts to thwart his plan to launch a global surveillance network, and discovers Spectre and Blofeld were behind the events of the previous three films.
This is my second June 2017 haul after the DID 1/6th scale '90s LAPD SWAT “Kenny” 12-inch figure (posted earlier on my toy blog HERE). There have been quite a number of 1/6th scale Daniel Craig as 007 James Bond 12-inch figures released over the years - check out my action figure reviews posted HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE - but I haven't seen one in a Ivory tuxedo as worn by Daniel Craig in the 2015 James Bond film Spectre. Plus Blackbox Toys 1/6th scale Daniel Craig as James Bond head sculpt is the best likeness and closest to the actor so far.

Blackbox Toys 1/6th scale Guess Me Series 12" figure - isn't that Daniel Craig James Bond 007?
Daniel Craig achieved international fame when chosen as the sixth actor to play the role of Ian Fleming's James Bond in the official film series, taking over from Pierce Brosnan in 2005.

Quantum of Solace followed two years later.
Craig's third Bond film, Skyfall, premiered in 2012 and is currently the highest-grossing film in the series, as well as the highest-grossing film in the UK and the twelfth-highest-grossing film of all time.

Preview Wild Toys 1:6 scale MI-6 Agent "Paul" 12-inch figure - Pierce Brosnan as James Bond
In 1994, Pierce Brosnan became the fifth actor to portray secret agent James Bond in the Eon Productions film series, starring in four films from 1995 to 2002 (GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, The World Is Not Enough and Die Another Day). He lent his likeness for Bond in the video games James Bond 007: Nightfire and James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing, providing his voice too for the latter.
There are twenty-four James Bond films produced by EON Productions and distributed by United Artists and MGM. The first, Dr. No was released in 1962 and the twenty-fourth installment, Spectre, was only released recently; making it one of the longest-running film series of all time. There are also two additional James Bond films, Casino Royale (1967) and Never Say Never Again as well as a single TV production of Casino Royale. A total of six actors have played the role of James Bond, a British Secret Service agent given the code number 007.
Brosnan portrayed a Bond for the 1990s — technologically and culturally savvy. The 1995 film GoldenEye also brought on Judi Dench as M and was met with the highest attendance rates since Moore's films. Brosnan's success continued with 1997's Tomorrow Never Dies, 1999's The World Is Not Enough and 2002's Die Another Day.
Wild Toys 1:6 scale MI-6 Agent "Paul" 12-inch figure does bear a resemblance to Pierce Brosnan as James Bond, dressed in his smart tuxedo suit and armed with a pistol, although I'm not too sure if that's his signature pistol.

The 007 James Bond Car Collection 1:43 scale Lotus Esprit from "The Spy Who Loved Me"
SPECTRE (SPecial Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion) is a fictional global terrorist organisation featured in the James Bond novels by Ian Fleming, the films based on those novels, and James Bond video games. Led by evil genius and supervillain Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the supranational organisation first formally appeared in the novel Thunderball (1961) and in the film Dr. No (1962). SPECTRE is the title of the 24th Bond film, scheduled for release in 2015 with Daniel Craig returning as the MI6 agent.
The James Bond film series is a British series of spy films based on the fictional character of MI6 agent James Bond, "007", who originally appeared in a series of books by Ian Fleming. It is one of the longest continually-running film series in history, having been in on-going production from 1962 to the present (with a six-year hiatus between 1989 and 1995). A rather amazing feat IMHO

This is a 1:43 scale Lotus Esprit from the 1977 "The Spy Who Loved Me" film. It was part of The 007 James Bond Car Collection series by Eaglemoss Collections, published by Eaglemoss Ltd. It was part of my November 2014 haul (posted earlier HERE). Of all the cars in the James Bond films, this was the only car that stood out for me.
When the Esprit - the ultimate sports car of its time - plunged off a jetty into the sea, we the audience were stunned. Then the unbelievable thing happened! To this day, the car's transformation into a submarine is one of the most memorable scenes of any movie. This was the film that introduced me to the world of James Bond back in 1977.

I took the picture before other stuff was added so there are more than meets the eye. Scroll down to see what else is not shown. (HINT: There's a certain Barbarian and a famous spy involved)
The picture above shows the latest released DAM Toys Gangsters Kingdom 1/6 scale Diamond 3 figure and the MC TOYS 1/6 scale Dark Climbing Kroenen Set plus Playmobil Western 5249 Horse-drawn Carriage with Cavalry Riders. What is not shown but covered in this post later on are the Kaustic Plastik XXL Project Set 1 - 1/6 scale The Fantasy Warrior fabric costume and accessories for 12-inch figures, Kaustic Plastik KP02XXL Heroik Muscle Body XXL Limited Edition 12-inch figure body and The 007 James Bond Car Collection Lotus Esprit from "The Spy Who Loved Me" film.

Seeing double of 007? Brother Production Sky Fall MI6 Agent & ZCWO AB02 12-inch body
continued from previous post...
The name's BOND, James BOND. Secret Agent 007.
Here are some comparison pictures of Brother Production Presents 1/6 scale Sky Fall MI6 Agent "Bone" 12-inch Figure with ZCWO 1/6 scale Articulate Body AB02 (Limited Edition) 12-inch Figure wearing Asmus Toys 1/6 scale 007 The BOND suit (reviewed earlier in my toy blog post HERE)
You will notice that I gave the DID 1/6 scale British Military Intelligence Section 6 (MI6) Agent "Jack" 12-inch Spy Figure (previewed HERE) a miss. That is because every time I'm at the shop and I decide to give the figure a chance, I am put off by the head sculpt and have to put the figure back on the shelf. DiD's Craig Bond (but named "Jack") looked really old with a long saggy face and certainly looked like he needs to be retired to an old folks' home. Not the kind of Bond I'm looking for.

Review II: Daniel Craig James Bond - Brother Production 1/6 Sky Fall MI6 Agent 12-inch figure
continued from previous post...
Here's Brother Production Presents 1/6 scale Sky Fall MI6 Agent "Bone" (deliberately misspelled) 12-inch Figure in some action poses. In the first picture, 12-inch James Bond (Daniel Craig) is armed with the 1/6 scale Heckler & Koch UMP-9, the first weapon James Bond (Daniel Craig) uses in the film "Quantum of Solace (2008)" but didn't see any action in "Skyfall". Why it is included with Brother Production Sky Fall boxed figure set is anybody's guess - additional weapons are good :) and what makes this sweeter is that 1/6 scale UMP SMGs are quite hard to come by.
Scroll down to see other pictures of Brother Production 1/6 scale Secret Agent 007 James Bond (Daniel Craig) figure with his Walther PPK, Bond's main sidearm throughout all the films. I actually prefer this Bond over the DID MI6 Agent Jack because IMHO DiD's Jack looks rather old to be Bond - DiD's face looks old, long and saggy, like his face melted from seeing the Ark from Indiana Jones (they really should have retired him instead) whereas Brother production's Bond looks debonair and suave, as Bond should be ;p

Review 1: Brother Production 1/6 Sky Fall MI6 Agent "Bone" Figure (Daniel Craig James Bond?)
This is the recently released Brother Production Presents 1/6 scale Sky Fall MI6 Agent "Bone" 12-inch Figure with the name "Bone" deliberately misspelled so as not to raise any alarms that this is in fact a "BOND" figure, James Bond that is. The product name "sky fall" is itself a dead giveaway since "Skyfall" is the twenty-third James Bond film produced by Eon Productions featuring Daniel Craig in his third performance as James Bond, and Javier Bardem as Raoul Silva, the film's antagonist.
This was the first SKYFALL Daniel Craig James Bond figure I pre-ordered because it was the first figure previewed way back in December 2012, before DID's 1/6 British Military Intelligence Section 6 (MI6) Agent "Jack" 12-inch Spy Figure (previewed HERE in May 2013) and ZCWO 1/6 scale Articulate Body AB02 (Limited Edition) 12-inch Figure which was reviewed HERE on my toy blog on May 27, 2013. This figure certainly took its time arriving and for me, it's a good buy :)

Kitbash 1/6 scale Daniel Craig as MI6 Agent 007 James Bond 12-inch figure as seen in SKYFALL
Having reviewed both ZC World (company) ZCWO (brand) 1/6 scale Articulate Body AB-02 (300 pieces limited edition) 12-inch figure HERE and Asmus Toys 1/6 scale 007 The BOND suit for 12-inch Figure HERE, it's only natural for me to pose Daniel Craig as James Bond as seen in the 2012 SKYFALL movie.
In Skyfall, the film opens in Istanbul, where we see MI6 agents James Bond and Eve Moneypenny chase a mercenary, Patrice, who has stolen a computer hard drive containing details of undercover agents placed in terrorist organisations by NATO states. Bond is not in his usual tuxedo but is seen wearing a silver / grey suit instead. And in the ensuing pursuit, Bond grabs the nearest bike available to chase after Patrice.
So here's 1/6 scale Bond wearing suit and tie getting on a dirt bike to go after Patrice. Scroll down to see more pictures :)

Review Asmus Toys 1/6 scale 007 The BOND suit for 12-inch Figure - Daniel Craig Skyfall?
continued from previous post...
Daniel Wroughton Craig (born 2 March 1968) is an English actor, best known for playing British secret agent James Bond since 2006. Craig achieved international fame when chosen as the seventh actor to play the role of James Bond, replacing Pierce Brosnan. Though he was initially greeted with scepticism, his debut in Casino Royale was highly acclaimed and earned him a BAFTA award nomination, with the film becoming the highest-grossing in the series at the time. Quantum of Solace followed two years later. His third Bond film, Skyfall, premiered in 2012 and is now the highest-grossing film in the series.

This is the Asmus Toys 1/6 scale 007 The BOND suit for 12-inch Figure which comes with silver jacket, silver pants, fashion styled shirt, patterned tie, silver watch, leather belt and black shoes. This particular suit seems most appropriate for the ZCWO 1/6 scale Articulate Body AB02 which comes with the Daniel Craig looking head sculpt (reviewed in my toy blog post HERE).

Review ZCWO 1/6 scale Articulate Body AB02 (Limited Edition) 12-inch Figure - James Bond?
James Bond, code name 007, is a fictional character created in 1953 by writer Ian Fleming, who featured him in twelve novels and two short-story collections. The fictional British Secret Service agent has also been adapted for television, radio, comic strip, and video game formats in addition to having been used in the longest continually running and the second-highest grossing film franchise to date, which started in 1962 with Dr. No, starring Sean Connery as Bond. As of 2013, there have been twenty-three films in the Eon Productions series. The most recent Bond film, Skyfall (2012), stars Daniel Craig in his third portrayal of Bond; he is the sixth actor to play Bond in the Eon series. There have also been two independent productions of Bond films: Casino Royale (a 1967 spoof) and Never Say Never Again (a 1983 remake of an earlier Eon-produced film, Thunderball).
This is ZC World (company) ZCWO (brand) 1/6 scale Articulate Body AB-02 (300 pieces limited edition) 12-inch figure which comes with a 1/6 scale head sculpt, 12-inch articulate body, 3 pairs of hands, alternate neck joint, ankle extension joint and extendable figure display stand. The 1/6 scale head sculpt does remind one of a certain super spy / secret agent from the British Secret Intelligence Service, commonly known as MI6. Scroll down to see more :)
