Welcome to the thread and the website . Just let me tell you that this about the best one around . MOst of the people are nice and friendly . And all are open . So just relax and enjoy . So Connery did wear a Toupee ( or bad rug) as Bond after "FRWL" . For proof just look at the new dolls offered by "SpyGUISE" . Especially the Dr.No one them compare to the "Goldfinger" model .

thanx kevrichardson, but look at my profile, I'm not new here, I just haven't posted for a while, but thanx for the greetings anyway;)

oh, and as for connery's hair, I just want to say, that although I have always considered his hairline as *strange*, it really looks like his 'true hair' in all of his bond films (I'm not sure of NSNA, as I haven''t seen it for a couple of years) , which really surprises me, given the fact that I wouldn't expect hairpieces at the 60's to be such a good quality.:) it's quite just unbelievable that those rumors are true, although it now seems that they are:)

Connery definitely wore a toupee in TB. I've seen photos taken during the filming were he was not wearing it.

Connery wore a toupee in all his Bond films, from Dr.No through to NSNA. In DAF he wore what I like to refer as "musical toupees". His hairline varies throughout that film.

He also had the worst wardrobe in DAF (with the exception of NSNA) Check out the short pink tie in the fight seen with Bambie and Thumper.

Would people have accepted a bald (or balding) Bond?
