Hey guys, I've seen some of Bullets Poker Chip sets and one kind of caught my eye, that one being the Corrado set.
I wanted to know if anyone of you has tried these before and if so I would appreciate a small discription about them.
Hope you have a nice day and thanks in advance
 
They look like the Casino Royales. If so, they're heavy plastics, they're one of my favorite sets.
 
I am taking the thread back from the grave for I just bought a 300 pieces Corrado set on the Amazon for 100 Euros.
Those are pretty decent cheap chips with no value on them.

Suitcase included:

+ The two deck of cards, a red one and a blue one -> Bullets **plastic** cards are VERY good quality plastic cards. They are extremely durable (I saw them taking so much abuse you wouldn't believe). The cards only can be valued around 15 Euros. They always have some perfume on them (!!!).

+ one ceramic dealer button -> it's cool, it's more or less decently made and it's a little bigger than a chip... It's just I don't like skinny dealer buttons.

+ one suitcase -> the usual china made suitcase with lock and keys. Don't abuse it...

+ 300 chips. The chips are advertised as 'clay, 14 grams'... But they are obviously plastic/clay composite with a metal core. Colors and stickers are wonderful, defects are very little and very rare (but there are some). What can I say... for 100 euros, it's a more than decent set.

+ The chips are an unofficial (but identical, minus the stickers) replica of the Cartamundi ones used during James Bond's holdem tournment in CASINO ROYALE, with the pink chips and black+orange chips used during the last hands of the two main phases.
The [black+orange] can be seen at the end of phase one, but they are enough similar to the [black+red] used during the very last hand.
Too bad the guys at bullet cards choose to make a replica of the black+orange rather than black+red of the very last all-in.
I have a soft spot for chips with dangerous colors like blood red chips on a black background.

I'm sorry, but this is wrong.

Only three chip denominations were used in the Casino Royale movie, the green base 5000, pink base 25000, and black base 100000. The original Cartamundi chips from the movie production design had three edge spots combos for the green, four for the pink, and six for the black, while the chips in the photo above all have 4 edge spot combos.
 
You are correct about phase 2 (the last phase), but before last phase started there was a chip change (as introduced by the casino owner).
During phase 1 rebuys were still allowed and the chips used had smaller values and had different colors.
The higher value chip of phase one was identical to the higher value one in phase two, but the 100$ used orange and the 100.000$ used red in the place of orange.
There was also an official cartamundi set sold with both chips.
Needless to say, the red one looks waaaaay cooler
