International Spy Museum: James Bond

Still posting pictures from our trip to the International Spy Museum, there was a huge exhibit full of stuff from the many movies starring the character James Bond. The very mention of the term "spy" instantly recalls the vision of Mr. Bond and all of his various missions. Dare I sneak away with pictures?

Ah a poster from the 1999 blockbuster movie Le Monde ne Suffit Pas. I remember seeing it but that title is not familiar.

James Bond to the rescue! Click on the "Read more" below?



Looks like the exhibit will feature the villains, they're all a bunch of ...characters... so this should be a fun thing to see.


Could you imagine Bond walking around a villain's lair and seeing this on the wall? Would he laugh or think "uh-oh!"


More foreign movie posters on the wall. I think I can read this last one.


Oh! Sweet. It's the one-bullet-killing Golden Gun. It might be made of gold, but it's so cool it's actually priceless.


There was a small theatre if you had the time to watch some kind of documentaries.


"Bond Girls." You can't say that like it's a bad thing. Everypony would want to be a "Bond Girl?"


Who would have thought the creator of James Bond wrote other books including Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? See? I learned something that day.


Ian Fleming's cane with a tiger eye in the handle like it's looking at stuff always.


Action figure for the character Oddjob, who throws his bladed hat. Did he have shoes? Or did he throw those already?


Pretty sure we saw Spectre but I don't remember lethal steel thumbtacks. Maybe we'll go back and watch it and then be more impressed with this picture?


 Dr. Evil, we've made your Volcano Lair just as you requested.


 Don't worry kids, this is a prop. Not a real nuclear bomb on display.


 Crates from Zorin Industries along the wall. That was fun to see.


 Who remembers Christopher Walkin was a Bond villain? Don't ride in the blimp with this guy.


 Here's some kind of buzz saw weapon we don't remember where it's from either, but it looked really cool. Are there so many James Bond movies we can't remember where the cool stuff is from?


 Grace Jones was so awesome and powerful in anything she did. Perfect henchman, er... henchwoman?


We don't recall this heart or what movie it was from but... gross? This is one secure case they have for it though.


Pile of diamonds! I know it's only props but a pony can dream, can't she?
