Would be great to get a screenshot of the silhouette ladies swimming, to show the picture geometry difference. This shot would be a good one.

Ah, what the hell, I'm just going to plug this here, if I can be granted a little leeway. One of my sons expressed an interest in James Bond, and after debating which Bond movie should be his first, I decided to start him off with Goldfinger. (The video is only 11 minutes, so not much of a time commitment.)

Nice job! I think these early films are appealing for all ages.

I suspect that the Amazon orders will be filled. The certificate that comes with the set says limited edition of something like 15,000 and there’s no way Amazon has sold that many copies of it yet. My guess is that it’s a matter of having the manufacturer assemble and package the next batch. It’s unlikely that they made all 15,000 copies at once.

You were right! I finally received my steel book set from Amazon yesterday. And it was actually packed extremely securely.

Knock on wood, I've played the first five of the six movies without issue in my Oppo 203. Diamonds Are Forever will be later this week.

I always wondered if Sean was thinking in this photo, " should I do the next Bond film?"

Sorry, it's already in the attic and I can't remember. Just bought the big Panasonic.

can someone explain why this battle took place underwater? other than it looks great

Look Down! Excitement!
And in Moonraker we had the Space Battle.
In 1965, I was so very impressed by the ariel shot looking down at the ocean with all those divers and underwater vehicles. Those underwater sleds a few decades ago were hanging onto the inside of Kevin McClory's fenced in residence, going to pot. A friend of mine and his acquaintance managed to salvage some of them and restore them where they are today in a 007 Museum, along with a lot of other Bonds items. I find the photos and post them.
Most of the battle took place in twenty feet of water off Nassau’s Clifton Pier. Into the battle, the producers threw every piece of equipment in the Thunderball arsenal, including the SPECTRE bomb sled, the scooters, and the scores of CO2 guns that sprayed a lethal underwater rain of spears among the fighting ranks, the free-swimming, orange-suited US Navy aqua-paras versus the black-suited underwater SPECTRE flotilla. Seemingly invincible behind their spear-firing sleds, Emilio Largo’s frogmen are systematically overwhelmed in hand-to-hand combat by Bond and his aqua-para
