In the great majority of countries, the last 'James Bond' title to be issued on the VHS format was 'Die Another Day
'. However, in a few territories Daniel Craig's 'Casino Royale
' also received a videotape release. In 2007, a 2-tape edition of Craig's debut 007 film was marketed in The Republic of Korea (aka South Korea) by 'Sony Pictures Home Entertainment'.
The Korean VHS 'Casino Royale' is not an only child; an edition was also marketed in Argentina, in 2007, by 'LK-Tel'. Believe it or not, there may even be a small number of (officially released) Quantum of Solace
VHS tapes in South Korea also, but they are extremely rare due to the low sales that accompanied the demise of the Korean VHS market. A big thank you to 007homevideo.com for providing us with this information and the image!
Edit: Proving once again how kind and generous the online James Bond fan community is, after seeing this post, Nicolás at Bond en Argentina sent us this scan of the Argentinian VHS sleeve:
