  • Not Big Chief but a custom made Daniel Craig figure. Quite pleased with it 👍
  • Borrowed a dinner jacket from another Bond figure for the custom made Craig one 😁
  • Not Big Chief but a figure I created using a custom made Daniel Craig head and a generic SAS type figure for the body.

  • Cowboys and Aliens Saw this a while ago and watched it again as it popped up on Netflix. Pretty good fun with a reliably good Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford. The special effects are all pretty good and it's entertaining but it probably didn…

  • Casino Royale Third time I've watched this in as many weeks. The definition of perfection. Everything works like a well oiled machine. Sheer 007 heaven! Hard to believe the same team was responsible for the debacle that was SP. CR really…

  • So many great little moments in this film. One scene I really like is when Bond says to the lady at the sales desk she's going to get a phone call in a minute and asks if she could tell them he's gone to Cairo... 😁
