What’s Inside The James Bond 2024 Advent Calendar?

The official James Bond calendar is worth over £350 and will be produced in a limited run of just 1,000, making it the perfect collector’s item for 007 fans. The box itself features a hand-wrapped, textured paper design meant to resemble the weave of Bond’s impeccably tailored dinner jacket, while the red metallic circles on the front evoke the iconic opening gun barrel sequence.

And inside, you’ll find seven drawers – each one representing a different James Bond decade, spanning the franchise’s 25-film history. Starting with the very first Bond film Dr. No and ending with No Time To Die, the calendar celebrates some of the legendary spy’s best moments with a curated selection of collectible items.

Here’s a sneak peek of what to expect:
