    But surely TSWLM has to have the esprit as a submersible with the underwater scooter bad guys

    I have loved these LEGO set designs ever since I laid eyes on them, naturally because of the Connery Bond connection and how clever they all are. I wish these designs would become actual products, as I think I speak for all of us when I say I'd purchase them all!

    There's some sort of thing where fans can submit Lego designs. Why doesn't anybody here do that for Bond?

    But, Patrice wasn't at the lodge. Felix and Camille weren't at the opera. Renard and Electra weren't anywhere near the Thames chase.
    No but extra figures are nice to have. Wouldn't you agree?

    Depends. What would Electra or Renard do on the Thames chase? Why not Mr. White at the opera? How about the chopper pilot or, I dunno, M and the groundskeeper at the Skyfall lodge?

    Your not getting my point. It has nothing to do with the characters at the scene. My whole frame of reference was. Here's a playset and here are some characters for you to play with. You can even get bonus ones. My ideas weren't restricted to who was in the scene. I picked an iconic scene and included characters that a lego collector would want to have with said set.

    But, when I buy Legos, I want every minifig to be involved. Renard wouldn't be doing crap on the Thames chase, and so I'd feel like his fig was a waste of plastic for that particular set. Now, if it were something like the missile silo shootout, with a Bond (in Russian Atomic Energy Agency gear), Renard and Christmas Jones, that would be different.

    How cool would it be to build the entire Orient Express for a FRWL LEGO set? It could open up into inside compartments and everything.

    The Liparus and three nuclear submarines, please. Bigger than the Lego Star Destroyers, I'm sure.

    How about the simpler stuff that overlap some of the films. Lego would want the sets to share as many pieces as possible and cover as many films as possible. They would also avoid the bigger things and only do small sets, as I don't think Bond would sell as good as Star Wars. Sort of generic scenes, that are in many films.

    I propose two starters, both generic to see how sales are:

    M's. Office complete with Bond, M. (Lee), Q (Lewellyn), and Moneypenny (Maxwell)

    Q-Lab complete with Bond, Q (Lewellyn), DB5

    If those are successful, we continue with specific sets from the films, one from each actor:

    Volcano Lair Complete with Bond, Tanaka, Blofeld, and the spaceship/rocket & helicopter (One of the most recognizable and parodied sets, thus a big seller.)

    Schilthorn/Piz Gloria mountain top with, Bond, the Girls, Blofeld, Building, and Helicopters

    Segment of the Golden Gate Bridge with Bond, Zorin w/ an axe, Stacey, and the Blimp w/ that doctor guy (sorry, forgot his name)

    The Streets in front of the Opera with Bond (sniping), Kara (sniping), and General Koskov w/ the DB7 and other assorted vehicles in the street. (Maybe the harrier jet)

    The train set piece with Bond, Ouromov, Trevelyan, Onatopp, and Natalya, with 3-4 train cars and the tank and helicopter.

    Casino set piece with Bond, LeChiffre, Eva, Leiter, and the DB9

    The sets such as Little Nelly and the DB5 are just right - not too big/ambitious yet they still got everyone here excited and wanting to spend money!.

    Shame the DB5 lego looks like nothing as the rocket and skids Vantage from TLD would be fantastic / complete with Cello

    I assume that's supposed to Zorin that Jaws is choking, but it looks more like Stan Lee.

    If Lego bought the rights to 007 that means that we might see Lego 007 game...which would be AWESOME
