Hi I am on the look out for some figurines of the show. Can't seem to find any on the internet ... anyone seen/heard if there are any out there?

Cheers.

I just looked--- BBC shop and BBC America don't have any. I'll keep looking tho because I wud love to get some too!!

Apparently, the company Big Chief Studios is working on them! I'm sure we'll get a Sherlock and a John, unsure if there will be any other characters made. I'm so excited, I've been trying to find Sherlock figures myself only to find they don't exist - yet!

If you scroll to a Sept 3rd post, there is a picture that says "Baker Street" on it which is a teaser.

You can see that they make great Who figures so I suspect the Sherlock ones will look great as well. Hope we don't have to wait long.

Yeah, I a am a huge figures/dolls collector and I can't wait to lay a hand on these figures, they're gonna be amazing.

I contacted the guy who makes them on deviantart (the sculptor??) and he doesn't have any details yeah, just told me he hoped they'd be on pre-order before the end of the year. Maybe Big Chief is waiting for the next season to sell them..

I am SO looking forward to them! I'll definitely pre-order them next month.

You'd probably be amused my thoughts went, in order, from 'whoah' at realism, to 'heh, ancientsgate is going to hate that' ( you've been memorably vocal enough, and not the only one to feel that way!!), to 'huh... nice... although almost, almost find the un-painted busts more striking, if that's odd!' (neat how 'realistic' fandom dolls are quite popular now, and many super impressive, but still so easy to waver between 'wow, perfect' and feeling like it's unnervingly off, somehow)

Not bad!
But why are Sherlock's and John's eyes of the same colour?

biscuitbear · August 23, 2013 8:17 pm

Well, I rather like them. I'm definitely getting the Sherlock. I guess he will sell like hot cakes. A more stylized doll would be nice as well, but having a realistic one is better than nothing.
I can't wait to see what accessories they make. And the coat! Will there be a PSoS?

Sherlock eyes wrong colour. That is all.

The Doctor · August 28, 2013 8:34 am

I am amazed at the difference between the first draft and this current one - Sherlock now matches Ben to a greater extent!

Aaaaaaaaaaargh!!! I'm done with waiting!!! Big Chief said a while ago that the pre-orders would be there in August, I check everyday and still nothing!

The doll is wearing Purple Shirt of Sex!!!!

Yeah, that made me smile too

Been waiting for these for months (and we don't even know when they're really coming out. They spoke about holidays but I kinda doubt that as there as been no precommand yet or whatsoever), spared money for this, my only fear is not to be quick enough the day the precommand is on their website.

can't wait!

Wait...are these figurines seriously going to be $400? Please say no!

More likely, up to $800 if you seek th esigned edition!

It will be interesting to see how many Forum members will be able to order these, and what editions fans will chose!
