Jane Seymour i believe signed women of Bond style at least . Britt Ekland signed the Women and the 40th style ( Ekland and Seymour also signed for BSG ). Barbara Bach, Carol Bouquet None as of yet Last but not least Jill St John signed all 3 styles i believe At least Full bleed and Women of Bond styles . Hope that helps ! Cheers

The Women of James Bond in Motion set was one of the few Bond sets I collected,mainly because of the low number of autos meaning a master set was relatively cheap and easy to complete at the time.
Don't keep a track of current prices but I would guess that it is more expensive now with the Seymour and Bach cards the only ones they signed.

Sorry to butt in, I have the same question too. I have been wondering if Minnie Driver signed for any of the sets, I know it was a pretty short role, but it was memorable

Besides the ones you listed Tommy, Akiko Wakabayashi is only other main Bond girl you missed.
In terms of secondary Bond girls RA only need to get Grace Jones, Talisa Soto, Teri Hatcher.
FYI, Joseph Wiseman passed away nearly two years ago. The only other main villains left to pursue are Michael Lonsdale, Louis Jordan, Christopher Walken and Matthieu Alamric.

I didn't know that Joseph Wiseman died ! I remember about 10-15 years ago seeing him on an episode of "Law and Order", and he looked pretty old. He also played Marlon Brando's brother in the 1952 film, Viva Zapata !
Claudine Auger is still around. Back in the 1990s I saw her on one of those PBS Sherlock Holmes mysteries, starring Jeremy Brett
Teri Hatcher never signed for a Bond set ?
Did Mie Hama from "You Only Live Twice" sign ? She was the main Bond girl of that film, arguably, not Akiko (whose character, Aki, died half way through it)

As with all the major players, I think RA had been trying to get Wiseman on board for years what with him being the first and arguably one of the most memorable villains of the series, no to mention the only one alive from the eary years of the series. Unfortunately, it seems he wanted to distance himself from the role and be remembered more for his theatre work - fat chance of that! Also he'd been in declining health for some time so that may also have played its part in his reticence to sign.
Like so many others, Teri Hatcher seems to shy away from her involvement with Bond and doesn't consider herself a 'Bond Girl'. Despite what she says, I thought she was fantastic and easily one of the more interesting female characters in the films. I think a card from her would be VERY popular.
As for Akiko Wakabayashi... she got top billing for YOLT (after Connery of course!) so even with the slightly odd choice to bump her off half way through she's still the main Bond girl.

Interesting! I also assumed that Mie Hama was the main Bond Girl for that film because she was the one who survived to the end of the film, as well as the important character that she played- but mainly because she survived!
To update the topic above, as to which Bond women have not signed for Rittenhouse sets, Halle Berry has signed, and it looks like Daniela Bianchi has a card coming in 2016
Did Talisa Soto ever sign ?
