    Does anybody recall a few years ago Corgi displaying a new line of figures from Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace at i think a german toyfair? If i recall correctly they said there would be a 7" and 9" inch range and also a range of busts? The ones exampled were of Bond and Vesper and looked pretty good!

    I'm guessing it did not happen at the time due to financial pressures? But with the 50th anniversary approaching are they revitalising the line for next year? I remember an article on MI6 about them, got excited about them and then they didn't happen? :((

    I do recall that figures but also I seem to recall Red Grant as a figure in the line as well.

    Do you remember him or others that were going to be made?

    The article is still there from 2008. The prototypes looked awesome! Seeing as they were so along ago now i am really hoping for them to now be released in time for next year? Here's hoping! [-O<
