Digital collectibles platform, VeVe, has shared the first of seven digital collectible series, continuing the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the James Bond film franchise.
This first of seven planned series features three iconic props from throughout the James Bond films, faithfully scanned and replicated as 3D digital collectibles on the VeVe platform.
Fans who purchase one of the collectibles in the series will also receive a 60 Years of Bond logo airdrop reward. Those who collect every collectible from all seven series receive a gold logo reward.
The Series 001 James Bond 60th Anniversary VeVe digital collectibles include:
Jetpack from “Thunderball,” 1965
Bond employs Q’s ingenious Jet Pack to make a daring escape from a pair of armed assailants after eliminating Jacques Bouvar, SPECTRE Agent No. 6. This Jet Pack is, in reality, a Bell-Textron Rocket Belt: a fully operational rocket propulsion device. Initially conceived for military applications, it was ultimately dismissed due to its limited flight duration of 21-22 seconds. Fueled by hydrogen peroxide, the invention can traverse a distance of 250 meters, reaching an altitude of 18 meters and achieving speeds up to 55 km/h.
Lasergun from “Moonraker,” 1979
This semi-automatic directed-energy weapon was meticulously engineered for the rigors of space combat. The sleek white iteration initially appears as a prototype undergoing testing in a Brazilian courtyard, wielded by a member of Q’s team. As the film reaches its climax, the formidable laser weapons are brandished by both the U.S. Marines – with their arsenal comprising handheld variants and those affixed to their spacewalk equipment – and Drax’s relentless guards.
Spectre Ring from “Spectre,” 2015
Initially donned by Marco Sciarra, a nefarious operative orchestrating a terrorist plot in Mexico City, this ring was a crucial link guiding Bond to the enigmatic SPECTRE organization, overseen by the sinister Blofeld. A SPECTRE agent’s ring first appeared in the film “From Russia With Love” (1963). This meticulous recreation of the version remodeled for the 2015 film “Spectre” played an instrumental role in Bond’s daring pursuit.
