I use the station everyday and I still haven't seen 'him'. This saddens me.

Oh my god, that is just beautiful. It does look like Robert. Well that is truly a way to make people keep looking. Will they also be placing one in the museum in California - so that we can all go see it?? I was lucky enough to go a few months ago to see his Tony Stark and Iron Man wax figures in California. They were fantastic. I hope they place one of Robert's Sherlock Holmes there as well. Fantastic, the statue is truly perfection.

Sheer perfection. I wish this Robert made of wax here in my garden. Though I would rather have the real one.
