You'd think Universal Exports would be on all the bad guy's black lists by now wouldn't you?


Quite! Wonder if it will turn up in any of the Daniel Craig movies.


I think they are more likely to use something new but similar. General Imports or something like that.


As mentioned above, we've already seen the Univex logo on a folder in CR.

It was but minus the "s" because that was added by the films.

Which was a shame because, as Kilroy6644 has previously pointed out, by MWGG, Fleming had changed the cover name to Transworld Consortium.
It was these simple misses that irritated me when reading DMC.

In addition to the instances already mentioned, I seem to recall Bond and/or Moneypenny mentioning it during their phone conversation in Thunderball. Correct me if I'm wrong.


Sorry, but it wasn't mentioned in their conversation in "Thunderball."

In addition, it wasn't on the "Moonraker" plane. It was, however, on side of the helicopter sent to fetch Bond from the Stoke Poges churchyard in the PTS of FYEO.

Darn, could've sworn I had caught one even the pros around here had missed. :tup: Thanks for sparing me the "trouble" of watching Thunderball again... what am I talking about, I'll probably watch it the next chance I get. :tup:
