James Bond: Octopussy egg pictures??

[Kleynen]

Hello,
I would like to buy/make a replica Octopussy egg.
But I can't find a good picture of the egg top.
Is there a crystal or a Russian crest on top? :confused
Thanks in advance for your help.

May be worth asking the owner if they would shed any light ?

Thanks.

I would think that egg would be pretty accurate since your also looking to make a replica. Limited to 100 eggs , I wouldn't think they would have put tiger Woods logo on top

That is one of the good enough copy - nice, but certainly far from screen accurate. A friend of mine is currently working one, but it will super expensive.

This replica has a Russian crest on top. But I have serious doubts about the SA of this replica.
The real one has no crystals on the plinth holding the Coronation Coach and no silk inside. I want to have it perfect!

I on the other hand would settle for a less than perfect representation that didn't break the bank. If anyone ever makes one, please consider doing it in a way you can make casts!:angel

Today the egg is on display at the School of Cinematic Arts at the University of Southern California [USC] in Los Angeles.

If only somebody could make a nice picture of the top of the egg.

I was in contact with the guy. He sent me some nice pictures, but none of 'the octopussy egg'. He was not sure about the top...
