Good point. (And the WA2000 in Living Daylights.) The entire franchise has whored itself out in terms of product placement. But with the guns, it's not as blatant. With the P99, he mentions the name of the gun once, and then never again. And I don't remember him mentioning the names of either the P5 or WA2000. Other "good guys" use non-Walther guns with as much fanfare. I wonder if another company can swoop in and get the Bond placement. (In the books, he uses as ASP.)

Speaking of, has anyone seen any print ads or any such promotional material from Walther featuring Bond?
