Really?

You should watch Jeremy Brett.

Word. No one has come close to besting him.

Sure it's thing of taste, but fore me Jeremy was best SH too.

Isn't it you who has the other custom Holmes figures?

I'm also getting a Keanu vibe from him. Doesn't appear to be licensed, but is pretty boldly flaunting what it is supposed to be.

They've always been this bold with Sherlock, their first figure was just as bold - Sherlock this, Sherlock that - they made virtually no attempt to hide it, unlike most unlicensed companies...

You should watch Jeremy Brett. THAT IS Sharlock Holmes....

Love him! I've seen almost every version of Holmes that has been in movies or TV and while Jeremy has the quintessential look of Holmes, RDJ's humor that he brought to the roll just pushed him to the top foe me. I fully understand that most don't agree with me, but I don't care.

Yeah BC would be the only company i could see having a stab at those figs...they could do a limited run and i'm sure there would be enough brett fans and sherlock fans to snap them up

So this is in no way connected to the Big Chief Sherlock figures?

I don't like this version of Sherlock Holmes but I want the Victorian outfits.

I don't recall seeing those. It just stuck out to me, since a pretty big deal was made out of the Iminime release a couple years back, and they were publicly called out by Big Chief for it. As a result, they only ended up producing something like 10 figures that they sold at a trade show.

I've always wanted the RDJ and Jude Law characters of Sherlock and Watson from the Guy Ritchie movies. Those remain my favorite duo to portray the characters.

I would love a set of those. While they are not necessarily the most book accurate portrayals, they are a riot to watch and I do enjoy them so.

Are we sure this isn't a rebadged Daco sculpt? Looks like it might be.

No, I have Daco's... Definitely not the same sculpt.

^Agreed. Absolutely nothing like the Daco sculpt

Thread closed - why anyone would go for a bootleg when a better licensed version is available is inconceivable.
