They told me that due to Covid19, the DR No set has now moved from November to May 2021. The Dalton figure is a sigle release by all accounts? But due to Covid19, the powers that be who need to approve it are not at work still.
Not Big Chief but a custom made Daniel Craig figure. Quite pleased with it 👍
1. Dr No/Bond delivery
2. Any new releases
Has anyone heard anything
Not impressed by BCS business model
BCS appear to have more traction on their Doctor Who range.
Sadly no way will we see them two this year? Dalton? Who knows? But highly unlikely?!!!!
Old photo (2019?). Not mine.
2030?
At their current rate, that wouldn't surprise me.
So maybe? Within 3 months of release the Dalton figure maybe up for pre-order? I remember from either an old photo or possibly a Big Chief video? Their was a model in the back ground of the Dalton model?
1. Great sculpts
2. The accessories and changes of hands with Dr No are few in number which is a shame, Connery comes with plenty of accoutrements.
3. The PPK Box doesn't close properly
4. The boxes and smaller and lack the clear plastic slip case as per the Goldfinger/LALD releases. The packaging just feels cheaper which is a shame and no doubt due to cost saving but it shows.
5. Dr No's hands are a single mould. The prototype I believe had a sectioned hand. This solution just looks cheaper.
6. The limited edition is only visible on the outer box not the certificate of authenticity.
7. Included is a BCS catalogue/brochure. No mention of Bond figures anywhere in it. Is this the end of the line?
Apparently, the licence has now expired though "Big Chief Studios are hopeful in getting it renewed." I only just found this out. It sounds all a bit up in the air at the moment, best wait for an official announcement.
The photos that I have seen of Bond, I can't say that I am impressed. They are NOT Hot Toys quality, but based on their prices, they seem to think that they are. That Bond looks inferior compared to the Sideshow Toys from the 2000's!!!! £250? Fffffforget that.
I have a number of Phicen/TBLeague 1:6 figures that didn't cost as much as what BCS charge, but are made to a much higher standard.
It’s sad to see Big Chiefs quality dip do drastically.
True!
Rubbish. I just got the figure. It is brilliant. The head sculpt is amazing, the tailoring is top notch and the accessories also fantastic. The only issue is the body is not Hot Toys quality, so won't be able to do dynamic poses, but overall it's a great piece.
I like how much "stop getting Bond wrong!" there is in that video :D
You should go Specsavers. Seriously. I have both. The difference is night and day. The face sculpt alone is incredibly well done, but look...save your money if your not convinced but don't talk utter rubbish when the difference is HUGE. I'm a 1/6 figure addict. This is an impressive (not perfect) figure.
I do hope that if another company takes the license they will be more proactive in making a wider variety of figures and to a much higher standard than Big Chief.
