    You won't get much better album artwork than that either, @MajorDSmythe – if at all!

    I have a framed print of that artwork with the text removed

    I also have DN on vinyl reissue. However, courtesy of my dad, I have the original vinyl releases of the soundtracks of FRWL, GF, TB, YOLT & OHMSS.

    I've been thinking of getting a Bond poster (or artwork), and I might try and get a LALD print. Still can't decide though, as there's so much good artwork to choose from.

    Nice I only have the FRWL original LP from the ones you mentioned.

    I also have MR and TMWTGG framed posters also, Sir Roger had some of the better Bond art IMO

    He certainly did – and those two are both great ones. I also love the OP artwork; Maud Adams looks great there! As she did in the film too, of course.

    Right now I only have a TB poster (the one below). It's not a perfect print though, so I might change it for a better one at some point.

    Awesome poster of TB, I have a tin wall plaque of OP. I have numerous post card size framed Bond posters including OHMSS and AVTAK which are two of my favourite

    I had loads of cinema size posters some of which were Bond films in my youth, though I did not look after them properly inevitably they got ripped. I had a good NSNA poster also, I wish I could tell my younger self to preserve my Bond stuff

    I've worn out some posters too. I definitely regret not framing them!

    How is the print quality on those posters/artwork? I'm a bit weary of buying posters as I want to avoid prints that look like bad scans or similar. You might have to pay more for a good quality print, of course.

    The ones I have are top quality, true you have to be careful if it's not an official poster as buying of eBay for example incorrect images can often be put up by sellers and the quality is not what you think it is.

    I remember buying the TB one from an Amazon dealer. It's nothing terribly wrong with it or anything like that, but it's a bit… I won't say pixelated, but it looks like the source image might not have been the best one.

    LALD vinyl soundtrack. Vinyl looks to be making a comeback in HMV.

    I got the original gatefold LP at a car boot sale around 20 years ago.

    My favourite non-Barry 007 soundtrack. Terrific poster art (my favourite after TLD) and vinyl no less! I have all the bond soundtracks on vinyl - from DN through to LTK and SF and SP. Pride of my collection (along with the Bond RPG games from the 80s). Love the look of the vinyl albums. They're all originals my copies - with the exception of TB which is a rerelease.

    Just picked this up for a tenner in a charity shop. Not exactly Mint In Box, but I'm not exactly a Mint In Box kind of person (i.e. I will be removing Pierce in order to place him in silly poses).

    Awesome! Skyfall was my first on vinyl, followed by LALD. Since then, I've added original releases of FRWL, Goldfinger, Moonraker, and FYEO.

    I do believe there was a TWINE Action Man, as well, garbed in his Russian Nuclear Outfit. I always thought that the 90's Action Men, had a certain Brosnan-esque quality to him.

    Didn't know where to post this -

    I can't believe I missed out on these back then, being in the target age group and all. Agree re. the looks; they kinda looked a little bit like Brosnan.

    The one I have looks as if he's designed to be Bond rather than one of the actors; he's got the scar and the stray lock of hair. I guess this meant they could use the same head for the Connery, Moore and Brosnan movie guys!

    All the Action Man figures I had back then had a similar scar and stray locks of hair, if I remember correctly.

    @Agent_99 You picked up that Action Man figure for an absolute bargain.

    I have the TSWLM one with Bond in the yellow ski suit. With the goggles on, he can kinda pass for Roger. Examples here:

    Oh, yeah, the mouth is quite Rog if you cover up the whole upper part of his face :)

    I see there's a GoldenEye one too. I've put together an army surplus GE outfit for myself - it would be fun to have a matching doll!

    (Come on, they're clearly dolls.)
