I've added a reference guide about the 007 sideshow figures to CBn right here... check it out and if there's anything you all think I should add to this list, please let me know. Since I don't own all the figures I'm sure I've missed something.

I'll update this list when there's new figures and also I'm thinking of adding the links to the sideshow individual pages.

Oh... I did pre-ordered the Alec Trevalyan '006' figure so I'm going to get the special edition piece for it :) ...t hat

Very nice article Athena! I love it!

Glad to see I have at least a few of those on that list!

Hope to see lots more come out too!

Good job! :)

How kind of you to give them their close-ups. :)

Seriously though, they look good.....except for that pineapple of a head on Xenia. :)

oh I know... they really didn't do such a good job with Xenia. How could they think she's a pineapple? :)

She is truly the most deformed looking doll copied from a film screen character that I've ever seen.

And after seeing the great work on the other ones, one has to wonder what they thought they were doing when they designed her.

Very nicely done, Athena. Looking over the collection made a question pop into my head. Is it me or does Sanchez look really bad? I've seen Robert Davi in a ton of stuff and the doll barely comes close.

Really nice work, Athena. It's great seeing these all laid out in this way. I'm impressed with how many movies Sideshow has covered thus far.

Yes, but she'd have to really get her head stuck in that tree for it to look like what it does on that doll. :)

Poor George, he sits on the floor of my display cabinet. I forgot I had him until I went to pick up a duster from the floor beside the case.

They're all really really cool. I know for sure I'd get Roger Moore from Live and Let Die (the one with the .44 Magnum), Pierce Brosnan from Goldeneye, because I get a kick out of that outfit with the vest, and last but definitely not least, Alec Trevelyan (006). Did you know that the first 500 people to order the Alec Trevelyan figure would receive a scarless head? You probably knew that already.

And can anyone tell me why Timothy Dalton comes with a Walther P5 instead of a PPK?

The same reason for why Sean has gold silencers for black guns. :)

Thanks for this link, MBA.

Might be worth adding this link to your overview, Athena.

That defiantly must be added... along with new pictures of Xenia and Bond from GE. Bond's hair STILL isn't right... and in that forum I will voice my opinion, finally, once I figure out what password I used :)

Xenia looks better BTW.

I'm hoping Sideshow will do the Frankenstein monster from Van Helsing. I love that they did ALL the Universal Frankenstein monsters with each of the different actors (and slightly different makeups), a Van Halsing Frank needs to be added to this collection seeing as it is another Universal flat-headed Frank.

HI,

What is the difference between the individual boxed figures and the sets of two figures, Dr. NO set for example. To complete do you need the twin sets and the individuals?

The sets and the individual figures are the same things. You'd only need to get one or the other if you were collecting them. :)

Nice buy, ABSTI. Sideshow really did a great job with that Connery figure. :)

Hope you got it out of the box.

I had to cut the top of the box to get it out, but it now stands on top of the tv. Looks great, will get Brosnan next.
