    @BMW_with_missiles Thanks for the info. Really looking forward to playing BS, and I'm sure I'll be able to get the Skyfall level from somewhere, maybe have Moneypenny do a little quiet digging for me ;)

    The Gameboy one is great, plays like a RPG, heaps of hidden areas/items. Used to play it on the Super Gameboy adapter for the SNES.

    Are there any members here who collect or make props? Would be cool to see what you guys have.

    Added "Never Send Flowers" to my collection today. Only need the LTK novelization to complete my Gardner set but seeing as how the hardcover is a little rare, I'm not sure if/when I'll fork the money out.

    Check out eBay. I got an ex-library copy of LTK in good condition with a dust jacket a couple of months ago for a decent price. I like the early covers of Gardner's novels.

    There are only two holes in my hardcover collection and that's Fleming's 'Casino Royale' and Benson's 'Tomorrow Never Dies' and I'm not paying a 500 pounds for either! Strangely - I think it will be easier to get a Casino Royale hardcover than a TND one!

    This is interesting. I bought all 5 Gardner-Benson film-novelization paperbacks when they came out.
    But, I didn't see any hardcover editions in the stores at the time, just the paperbacks. hmmm

    I have (I think) LTK,GE & TND film novelisations IIRC.

    Yes - the Gardner and Benson hardcovers are all relatively easy to come by - with the exception of Tomorrow Never Dies. That was a limited print in hardback and incredibly expensive to buy. So unless I stumbled across it in second hand bookstore when some bookstore owner doesn't know what they have on their hands then I don't know if I'll ever get it.

    The Book Bond website is a good one to check out. Has pretty definitive coverage of all the editions.

    http://www.thebookbond.com/2013/12/bensons-bond-uk-hardcovers.html

    With Trigger Mortis they released the paperback here first and I then had to wait a few months until the hardcover appeared.

    Thanks @Major_Boothroyd
    Those were good reads at the links you posted
    I somehow don't think the 5 Gardner-Benson screenplay novelization hardcovers were published in Canada.
    If they had hit stores during that time (1989-2002), I would have picked them off, as I did the paperbacks, or at least noticed them.
    I did manage to buy most of the original Gardner-Benson HC's...10/14 Gardners and the first two Bensons, after which I lost interest in expending cash on the HC's, and focused on maintaining a complete pb collection, which I did.

    I used to play cards regularly so unfortunately opened them, still in decent condition just put them on a shelf next to my Bond 50 Bluray set.

    I hope you have a secret entrance to the room. Maybe to get into the room you have a table and chair that flip around like Roger Moore in LALD? Or tapping a sword on a gravestone? Or a floor that opens up and you slide down onto a couch like Connery in YOLT? Although I'd advise walling it up like White's room at L'American in SP. Maybe you could have a little pervy anti-chamber like Largo in Never Say Never Again so you can spy on people practicing ballet? The possibilities are endless.

    In all seriousness - the idea of a Bond room is fantastic!

    Cool deck @Fire_and_Ice_Returns. You can still pick up the screen-seen CR/SF decks pretty cheap.

    I have a nice collection now:

    CR decks in red/black;
    SF Floating Dragon;
    LTK Isthmus City in blue/red;
    LTK Paulson in blue (non-logo ones seen in LTK);
    and just one of the red & white chequered cards seen in DN (Bond playing solitaire while waiting for Dent to arrive) plus a complete deck in blue & white

    Still searching for a Circus Circus deck though. Seen a red one for sale a while back.

    Interesting I'll have a look online, I don't mind displaying decks of cards, admittedly my Bond collection is almost none existent beyond the films and music now, though my movie room is littered with memorabilia I need a few extra Bond items in there.

    I do not think I do? Been trying to locate the photo's I took before I had to box it all up? But no joy so far? The collection ranges are, VHS tapes, DVD's, Blu-Ray, Movie Soundtracks/Compilation CD's, Posters, Standee's, Books, Magazines, Car collections, Figure collections, Lithographs, and a few film props. So as Sir Roger would say? "A feast for my eyes!". Really looking forward to sharing it with you in a visual sense of course! Lol!

    Have 3 in total.

    1. Novelty one really from TWINE. It is one of the barrels from the Caviar factory set.

    2. Goldie's stunt machine gun from TWINE after the exploding suitcase bomb scene.

    3. Sean Bean's stunt gun from GE. My personal favourite.

    All complete with the official documentation. The guns are already in display cases which are ideal for hanging which is what I did.

    This is insanely cool. Where did you come by these items? Online auctions? Were they, relatively, reasonably priced?
