I didn't see anything about Infamy Minatures posted anywhere, but they look to be starting a very nice 32mm Steampunk line with some of the old Rackham sculptors...

Sherlock Holmes would make one heck of an Inquisitor!

Not really a fan of Henrietta Jekyll, but the concept art for Tallulah Bell looks promising.

Agree completely - remove the pipes leading up to his left arm (they look a little to "tentacley" to me...), add a couple of 40k-ish attachments to the servo-arms...and voila!

Really dig the Sherlock figure, but don't really like that they call it Sherlock Holmes. It doesn't really conjure up a Sherlock feel to me. Sherlock isn't known for having to rely on a lot of gadgets, and this figure is really busy with all those servo-arms holding various gadgets.

Amazing models but the price is a little on the high side.

Listen, my children, as I pass onto you the truth behind Willy Wonka and his factory. For every wonka bar ever created in existance, Mr. Wonka sacraficed a single Oompa Loompa to the god of chocolate, Hearshys. Then, he drank the blood of the fallen orange men because he fed them a constant supply of sugary chocolate so they all became diabetic and had creamy, sweet-tasting blood that willy could put into each and every Wonka bar. That is the REAL story behind willy wonka's Slaughter House! |

Plus, if I read their fluff correctly, he's a villain... 
Would seem to fit much better as a Moriarty to me...
Still, great looking figure!

I know what you mean. "A rose is as sweet by any other name", though. I am worried about the thinness of all those arms on a playing piece.

The normal arms don't worry me as much as the mechanical arms in the back! I guarantee if I bought this guy I would accidentally break those things trying to put them on! There very spindley especially in resin. That said its a very nice sculpt!
