Checked my records. Got it for $14 from Heritage's Ebay auctions last year. Tough to photograph it but here it is:



Looks like there are several copies on US Ebay, at least one is foil.

... and anyone who sells such a poster saying Jason Statham starred has got to be believed.

This quoting the link to 'least one is foil'.

I'd buy.

Not.

As for the rest, they all 'appear' to be flat versions devoid of mylar and foil.

You James Bond guys really know your stuff.  I've don't know of any other genre that specific where several people know that much about all the different variants, releases, prices, etc., and share the information.

Simes, you're way way off the mark on this one. Kristell is a well-known and very reputable dealer.  She was a regular contributor to MPF and I've bought several posters from her.  No doubt whatsoever on that one.

2,858/100% positive feedback?  Not a good one to question.....

Mel,
With all due respect to Kristell, there is no way the poster she has posted is the foil version.  I'm not necessarily questioning Kristell's honesty because she may think it is the foil version.  If she's never had a real one, she might not know the difference.  I would be willing to bet money that it is the revised one.  But I'm sure she is a completely honest seller otherwise.

A double bill for sale on ebay for those looking.

As for Kristell, the blurb (copied below) does say that Jason Statham stars and it really does not 'appear' to be the foil version ...

Curses!  I lose on this one big time.  Kristelll just emailed me and admitted her mistake.

I'll go hide in my "shame cocoon" for awhile....

Only the remastered version from Park Circus.

Not that you were asking this though, I am sure.  Otherwise, no.

Well, it never hurts to ask. Apparently some people around here are loaded, some people have inherited posters, etc.  Anyway, it inspired me to finally spend some time - actually a lot of time - rounding up most of the major UK and Japanese Bond posters and putting them in a showcase here.  They look really cool together and many are clearly superior to the US versions.



I'm well aware I missed many but I only used posters for which I could find HQ images at least 900 pixels vertical/horizontal. Happy to add others meeting those qualifications.

I figure I would throw this up here. Here is a Jp B1 that I have had for some time for The World is Not Enough.

Just won a You Only Live Twice Style C on Ebay for $362, a good bit cheaper than it's sold for on Emovie/Heritage (in the $600-$900 range).  

It doesn't look in perfect shape, but it looks pretty displayable.   If not, I'm sending it back per the 14 day money back guarantee.  

Anybody else have this poster?



@Dread
I love and have this one. I am not going to keep it though because of its value and all...

Hi guys,

I finally have the set up sorted to be able to take decent images of posters up to the size of a US Subway, so with my promise of starting to photograph my posters and to upload more images to Bondposters.com AND this forum, here is the Goldfinger US Subway.

The image you see is 500px in width (which is what I use for the website).



Hope this is OK with you all.
Cheers,
Adam
Best wishes,
Adam

Just a quick note in reply to Zorba:
The Goldfinger US Subway poster is the first poster to be photographed with my new set-up, which I thought I'd try out before starting properly today or tomorrow, wherever you are based.

Thank you all for your kind comments; much appreciated.
Adam

Very nice Adam!  The horizontal format of the subway poster beats the vertical three sheet by a country mile IMHO:
