<P> Blofeld's appearance and personality change according to the personifying actor and the production . He has a full head of black hair in From Russia With Love and Thunderball; a bald head and a facial dueling scar in You Only Live Twice; a bald head with no scar or earlobes in On Her Majesty's Secret Service; and silver - grey hair in Diamonds Are Forever . This metamorphosing matches Fleming's literary portrayal of a master criminal who will go to great lengths to preserve his anonymity, including the use of plastic surgery . He often wears a jacket without lapels, based loosely either on the Nehru jacket or on the Mao suit, a feature which is used in spoofs like the Austin Powers series, though in his early two appearances on film he wore a black business suit . </P> <P> By November 2013, MGM and the McClory estate had formally settled the issue with Danjaq and MGM and acquired the full copyright to the characters and concepts of Blofeld and SPECTRE . Blofeld consequently reappeared in Spectre, played by Christoph Waltz, and with a new background . He was now born Franz Oberhauser, the son of Hannes Oberhauser, Bond's legal guardian after he was orphaned at the age of 11, making him and Bond adoptive brothers . As a young man, he murdered his father, staged his own death, and took on the alias of Ernst Stavro Blofeld, using his mother's maiden name . He then assembled the global criminal organisation known as Spectre . He is revealed to have been trying for years to destroy Bond, whom he resents for having been his father's favourite; he is thus revealed to have been the power behind the villains of the previous three films (It is also implied he was one who ordered Dominic Grenne's execution in Quantum of Solace). At the end of the film, Bond takes him into custody after foiling his plan to take control of the world's national security intelligence data . This incarnation of Blofeld again wears a jacket without lapels, has a full head of hair, and is disfigured in the course of the film, echoing the Pleasence version's duelling scar .
