Haven't seen Skyfall yet but it looks like the bulldog for sale has different eyes than the screen shot posted at AJB... any comments on that?
They have the actual Bulldog at the Designing 007 exhibition which I saw on Saturday. When I looked at mine when I got home afterwards, they seemed to be the same but I can't be completely certain. I agree that the eye does look different in the photo of M standing behind her desk. Whether it is different or it's just shadow I'm really not sure though. It's not uncommon for these china figurines to have slightly different colour applications as small details are usually applied by hand (large ones are often stencils...I would imagine that the bulldog's Union flag is a stencil).

the bulldog in the film loooks like a vintage piece - I think its been produced on and off since 1946. The new issue is whiter with less facial shading and certainly less darkening of the eyes and ears - but hey at £50 its a steal!
Item description says 'solid metal' and the quality isn't bad, so I'd say for the price it's pretty good.
Check the feedback though,

Looks good. Postage will kill ya!
I'm going to get one, tell no one, keep it hidden in the safe, wait until I peg it, and then have the last laugh when the kids take it to the jewellers. )
Dont wait for your ship to come in. Swim out and meet the bloody thing.
I'm bidding on your French nightie - I love it. If you have naything else like that please let me know
Great stuff! I was excited to find this a few years back, as I've never seen one before. The only thing is the box isn't in great condition. Do you know if they produced any other items? I've got an image from an ad in a french magazine somewhere on my computer, I'll have to fish it out.
I'm guessing your website is jamesbondtoys.co.uk? I have to say I'm very jealous! My collection isn't quite as vast as yours. But I mainly collect posters, and also rare toys and nick nacs from the Moore era films. I started seriously in 1997.
I had a sale of 80 items during the release of QoS, and haven't collected much since. I decided back then to sell most of my Sean Connery era items, to concentrate on Moore. I'll be putting on a Swedish Goldfinger 1 Sheet poster soon, I've also got an original Aston Martin Thunderball showroom poster, but I'm keeping it for now. I'll most likely get it linen backed.
I really need to visit the Bond forums more often! It's just hard to find time between work and other hobbies. I'm currently taking pics of my non-bond Roger Moore items, they are on a Facebook album if you're interested. I will also do my Bond items in the future.
Hello AJBers, I wanted to let you guys know about a Bond item I'm selling.
This is bullet-shaped 'Die Another Day' cocktail shaker which I won from the official James Bond Street Team in 2002. For years I've searched for the item online but no trace - can I assume it is one of a kind?
(Some of you may remember me listing this a couple of years ago. I got cold feet about selling it that time. Sadly, times are hard these days and I must part with it... but I'd love it to go to a genuine Bond fan!)
I am selling some items so I can buy a barbour jacket.
I have listed on ebay my Tom Ford Marko TF144 18V sunglasses on ebay. Only worn to try them on where I found them to be a bit tight. If you let me know before you bid I will accept a best offer of £180 from a ajb007 member.

Thank You - again!
I now have a pair of puppies on the way
I did promise myself not to buy anything post Casino Royale but as animal lovers these will find a place each side of the fireplace in our home
Nick

Box is wrong, gun is wrong, radio is wrong.
Loadacrap if you ask me.
Oh the lock is right though.
