James Bond Jr.
As it came up a couple of times in the comments section of one of last month's Bond posts, I thought I'd share the opening titles of the early 90's James Bond Jr. cartoon, complete with catchy theme song... and Hip Hop Oddjob. Enjoy.
ADDENDUM FOR CHARLES: The cartoon was very loosely inspired by the 1967 children's novel 003 1/2: The Adventures of James Bond Junior by "R.D. Mascott." Here's the Wikipedia entry on that rare book.

This reminds me of a book I read many years ago and would love to get a copy for. It was called 003 and a half, but I can't remember the author. and I've never been able to turn up information on this book. You wouldn't know about it would you?
Yeah, though I've never read it or found a copy myself. It was 003½: The Adventures of James Bond Junior written under the pseudonym R. D. Mascott, and was a loose inspiration for the TV cartoon.
There's some info about it available at the Wikipedia link in the post.
Wow, thanks for the information. I have done quite a few searches for the book online but never found the wikipedia site. I'd love to have a copy of it. I got it originally from our small town library.
