Where the Legend Began.

Why Pre-Order? (And Why Waiting Is Actually Part of the Fun)

High-end collectibles like Official Props, Hot Toys and Sideshow statues aren't mass-produced tat you grab off a shelf. These are limited, painstakingly crafted pieces—and that means the queue forms before they exist.

Pre-order or miss out. It's that simple. Don't pre-order? You'll be watching fellow James Bond collectors secure theirs while you're left searching the aftermarket. We've seen it happen. It's not pretty.

The wait is usually around six months—sometimes more, sometimes less—but here's the thing: life gets busy, time flies, and one day a parcel just arrives. A glorious, unexpected treat that past-you had the foresight to order. Future-you will absolutely high-five past-you for this decision.

Ordered from us specifically? Even better.

The Plaques from Cinema's Most Famous Introduction.

Few scenes in film history are as legendary as James Bond's first appearance at the Chemin-de-fer table in Dr. No (1962). It is here that Sean Connery delivers the immortal line, "Bond. James Bond."—a moment that launched one of cinema's greatest franchises.

Factory Entertainment faithfully recreates the casino betting plaques seen during this unforgettable sequence as a stunning Limited Edition full-scale prop replica set. Developed from the only surviving original props preserved within the EON Productions archive, every effort has been made to reproduce their distinctive appearance while preserving complete authenticity.

Each plaque has been precision routed from heavyweight acrylic, finished with beautifully flame-polished edges, an elegant inlaid mother-of-pearl effect, authentic screen-printed artwork, and carefully engraved serial numbers. To comply with legal requirements, the serial numbers have been modified while maintaining the overall screen-accurate appearance of the originals.

Presented inside a premium magnetic-closure collector's gift box, the set also includes an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity booklet, creating a museum-quality presentation worthy of one of the most significant props in James Bond history.
