That would be great Panos.  I'll pm you some photos of shields and weapons that may be of use to you that I could trade.

While the Special may officially be called "Detective", the deerstalker, magnifying glass, and Big Ben on the box indicate that Sherlock Holmes was clearly the inspiration behind this set. :)  I'm still upset he's a fat and not a normal klicky. >:(
