“007 Store” now have a Limited Edition of Francisco Scaramanga’s Golden Gun (prop) for sale.
LIMITED EDITION GOLDEN GUN PROP REPLICA
Individually numbered in a series of 1-500
Available to pre-order NOW
Your chance to own a limited edition replica of one of the cinematic world’s most iconic weapons, Francisco Scaramanga’s Golden Gun. This 18ct gold-plated 1:1 scale collectors’ piece is a multi-part replica of the unique firearm made for the 1974 film, which was made up of seemingly innocuous separate elements that when combined created a deadly, 4.2-calibre single-shot handgun.
This officially licensed replica has been created after meticulous study of the original prop in the EON Productions Archive, as well as interviews with original cast and crew. The gun can be assembled and disassembled into its machined metal component parts, exactly as the original prop.
007store exclusive set includes:
- The five 18ct gold-plated elements – lighter, fountain pen, cigarette case, cufflink and bullet
- A colour litho print of Peter Murton’s original production designs for gunmaker Lazar’s workshop – 8”x10”
- Individually numbered metal plaque
- Story booklet
- Certificate of authenticity
- Wooden display box
Made in a limited edition of only 500 pieces
Details
Gold-plated cigarette lighter – with a hidden slide-out section, the metal lighter forms the main body of the replica. The lighter lid opens to reveal a breech chamber. Please note: the Colibri logo engraved on the lighter lid on the original prop is not included on the replica for trademark reasons.
Gold-plated fountain pen – complete with removable thread cap, this screws directly into the body of the lighter to form the barrel. An orange marking has been added to the end of the barrel to comply with replica weapons regulations.
Gold-plated cigarette case – open the end to create the handle and trigger housing.
Gold-plated cufflink – this acts as the trigger. With a sprung blade, the cufflink screws into the trigger housing, firmly locking all the components together.
Gold-plated bullet – inscribed with 007, this can be fitted into the breach of the lighter or displayed separately.
Display case – this high-quality case has a hinged window lid and metal plaque showing your unique edition number. It features a reversable lining that allows you to display the piece assembled or disassembled, and is made of piano-black lacquered wood and acrylic, detailed with a subtle 007 logo.
