Hi Brandt,

I was pleased to see that Goldeneye is being done, but I respectfully think that the outfits are wrong! Here is what I think would be cool:

For 007 and 006, the black battledress in the pre-title sequence:

For Xenia Onatopp, the S&M leather Russian military outfit she wore at Severnaya:

I completely agree, although I presume Sideshow wanted to theme the outfits so they all appear as they did in the climax of the film.

The black special forces outfit has been done already in the Action Man Bond line - but then, they also did a Thunderball Bond in websuit, and that hasn't stopped SSC from announcing their own, superior version.

Xenia in the Soviet Uniform would be fantastic.

Hey!

Great pics - we did indeed give thorough consideration to the costume choices you outlined. By the time you see images of our products, the design for the figure has been finalized and approved by the licensor, and it would be very rare for us to go back and change costumes at that late date.

Goldeneye is one of the best Bond films, and there are some golden opportunities. I would love to make a line of Famke figures... sigh...

Thanks for the confirmation, Brant, it was worth a try! Anyway, a black battledress accessory set would be an easy and strategic thing to produce, since a non-scar head of 006 is being done for the first batch of pre-orders, both 006 and 007 can wear the outfit!
