mightyq brings it up to 10! Just want to make sure that didn't get missed

One thought I have is to run an alternate list for another outfit to see if the count gets higher. Moore is almost impossible to bash due to the era and TSWLM is my favorite Moore film but I don't like the outfit choice.

I'm having a hard time seeing dalton or lazenby in anything but a tux so I don't want brosnan and Connery to be the only two not in a tux. Plus there are so many great And unique Moore suits and outfits.

I'm in either way but strong vote to change the outfit choice.

 

[Misterscruff]

If I'm honest another Tux wouldn't have been my preferred choice, but between a Tux or nothing at all I'll take a Tux...at least it's unique because it's double breasted and has the flared trousers.

I'm kind of in between on the outfit discussion. Like GeneralZod I planned on displaying all of my Bond's in different tuxedo's, but as Raymond said Moore had so many unique outfits and perhaps something else would drum up more interest? It seems like the navy battledress Moore wore at the end of TSWLM is a pretty popular choice. Or perhaps even one of his 70s style suits? It just appears as if quite a few people on the list are going for the tux out of necessity and not necessarily because its their favorite Moore outfit. Of course this is just my opinion.

There seems to be two trains of thought as to how to display Bond: either all in tuxedos or all in different outfits. I've already voiced my objections to the all-in-tuxedo look and would definitely prefer the different outfits approach. For Moore I would go with either one of these:

Dissension in the ranks.


Love to know if this is actually going to happen so I can pull the trigger on a Rocco Moore sculpt or not.

 

[thecapn]

I'd buy whatever had the best odds of getting made... though from a fashion sense I SO hate those Safari Jackets!

 

[chilipep66]

its definitely gonna happen, but this debate already happened and people seemed to settle on this one. Im not gonna organize another interest list, but if someone chimes in with an actual example and rallies support behind it we can certainly go in that direction

 

[Heisenbergwhite]

the double breasted tux is the best way to go, lets make it happen

There we go.



I think when you actually consider your options, you will see this tux makes the most sense.

I don't truly think anyone wants a Moore figure in a pastel Leisure/Safari suit or in one of those loud plaid jackets, though it might be funny to think about. The Moore era is not known for its class in clothing -- but the double breasted tuxedo is one of the few that remains of its time (wide lapels, bell bottoms) and yet also remains 'classy'. And the double-breast is uniquely Moore.

Other than the Navy Battledress also from TSWLM, the d-breast tux seems the most iconic for a tasteful Moore Bond. But we had that debate and this one seemed to be the choice preferred of the two.


Anyway -- if we don't hit 20, no one will have to worry.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Trying to keep this afloat.

 

[thecapn]

Chilipep, I think you missed adding mightyq to the list? I think we've got 10 now

 

[Rdeezy]

Put me down...I'm fine with this choice as all the other Bonds will be in different suits and not all tuxedos.

Craig -Skyfall tux
Connery - Gray 3 piece
Brosnan - GE suit

 

[Raymond F.]

Hmmm I'm actually considering pulling out of this, the more I think about it I'm not sure I want Moore in that tux for what the price of it would be and to be completely honest I'm just not complete my happy with the recent sculpt offering. It was a really good effort but something didn't come together in the end, not sure if it's the likeness, the hair or the size/shape but it just didn't inspire me when I attempted to paint it and left me frustrated. I'm the biggest bond crusader there is but I'm just so happy with me brosnan Craig and connery that I can't settle on anything less as bad as I want Moore,

I agree with you on the sculpt Ray but a new sculpt can always be commissioned in the future

 

[Wor-Gar]

Craig - Skyfall tux
Connery - Gray 3 piece
Brosnan - GE suit

.....Moore - Navy double-breast tux


That seems like a very diverse line-up -- 2x tuxedos and 2x suits.

Of course, depends on what you dress Dalton and Lazenby in if its going to be over-tux'd.

I'd probably stop at Connery, Moore, Brosnan and Craig...unless some new sculpts for Dalton and Lazenby come along.

 

[Wor-Gar]

If Ray's out and Rob's in, we're still at 10. Long way from 20.

 

[thecapn]

Did we need to hit 20? I was under the impression if it's less, it'd just boost the price a bit. Depending on how MUCH of a boost, I'd still be down.
