I'm planning to trademark it. I take a great deal of trouble theming the accompanying booze.
You're right, thank goodness I don't have your Saturday!
I'm fairly certain this is how some people on this board get through their full Bondathons.
No for those @Agent_99 has themed benzedrine tablets.
I mean complete. I'm thinking of the Thunderfingers who can't digest Brosnan easily. Actually, I believe Thunderfinger has sworn off Brosnan for life, but if he were to watch one I have to imagine the experience would involve heavy drinking and shouting.
That would be me too!!
My wife can't understand why I don't support Brossa as I'm Irish!!!?
Never liked him since I used to see him in Remington Steele (he was an annoying smug git then too!) And he almost ruins one of my favourite scenes in movies, the finale of The Long Good Friday...the least convincing I.R.A. killer ever. When he was mentioned as a contender for Bond I said "please God NO!" , the relief when he was dumped for Dalton and despair when I knew he was in for GE were huge.
Now that sounds great !!
DAD is always my drunken 'go to' Bond film.
I had no idea there was a vinyl version of it. Do you have a photo?
For some reason I can't get the photo link working so here's a link to a website with it.

Got some DN posters sgd by Gayson , amazing :D
That is a real neat vintage find! Get that framed and on the wall.
I'll trade you the full-size GE poster (alas no signature) that I got from a video-store owner, back in the day
No? Didn't think so :)
Some new Bond items, I'll buy better frames for the smaller images.
Love the lower row FRWL poster; the original British cinema poster.
That's the poster I like most from the film.
With the bold historic first declaration of "Bond is Back!
And Connery now posed in the iconic Bond stance.
And the FRWL girls scattered about, which is fitting as the film is rife with sexual undertone
I can't quite focus the images, but it seems we have Daniela Bianchi, Leila (gypsy dancer) and Martine Beswick & Aliza Gur displayed.
Just missing Eunice Gayson Nadja Regin
I took the photo on my tablet the lighting was not great, that's right regarding the FRWL image one of my favorites also, I prefer the old school artwork.
I got the TND micro camera with box and instructions. It was part of a video box set that came with the VHS and a micro FM radio. It's very toy-like, but has an interesting design how it clamps around the film spool rather than the film going entirely inside it. You can see on the instructions there that it will sport a more camera-like shape once the film is added. It also has a leather pattern on one area of the plastic- nice touch there I thought.
Also scored Boris' petrol lighter. It needs a little maintenance, namely a new flint and possibly a new wick. Might also replace the cotton wads inside. It has quite a few scratches, but then, so did the one in the film.
Ah, thank you very much! I know next to nothing about Zippos but that's a very appealing object.

No expert here either, but it's surprising to think that with all the lighters I've had over the years, I've never owned a Zippo until now. There's heaps of youtube videos with tips and tricks on how to maintain your lighter and get the most out of it. That's one bonus of acquiring the props, you learn a lot of interesting non-Bond stuff along the journey.
Happy Birthday! They are two books I would not mind reading, two of my favorite Bond films.
Now it's back, dusted off and spruced up for a new generation of Bond fan.
Probably a better package now than the original.
===re lighters I have cheap bic-flic type DAF lighter.
Bought for me by the wife.
The OHMSS book looks stunning.
