Blackbox Toys 1/6th scale Daniel Craig as 007 James Bond in Spectre 12-inch figure Review 1

Spectre is the 24th instalment in the James Bond film series and the twenty-sixth overall. It is Daniel Craig's fourth performance as James Bond, and Christoph Waltz's first as Ernst Stavro Blofeld, with the film marking the character's re-introduction into the series. The story sees Bond pitted against the global criminal organisation SPECTRE and against their leader; Ernst Stavro Blofeld, who is revealed to be Bond's adoptive brother as he attempts to thwart his plan to launch a global surveillance network, and discovers Spectre and Blofeld were behind the events of the previous three films.

This is my second June 2017 haul after the DID 1/6th scale '90s LAPD SWAT “Kenny” 12-inch figure (posted earlier on my toy blog HERE). There have been quite a number of 1/6th scale Daniel Craig as 007 James Bond 12-inch figures released over the years - check out my action figure reviews posted HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE - but I haven't seen one in a Ivory tuxedo as worn by Daniel Craig in the 2015 James Bond film Spectre. Plus Blackbox Toys 1/6th scale Daniel Craig as James Bond head sculpt is the best likeness and closest to the actor so far.

I like the design on the slipcover of the box packaging. It's quite nice and there's no mistaking which film (Spectre) and who (Daniel Craig as 007 James Bond) it's supposed to be in the box.

The top tray holds the main 12-inch figure

The bottom tray holds the 1/6th scale accessories: Walter PPK Pistol, Silencer, Omega Sea-Master Watch, TF Snowdon FT237 Sunglasses, AT Braces (White), 3 extra sculpted hands - 2 for holding his gun and 1 for holding his cigarette, Cigarette and extra wrist peg.
