Baker Street on my Coffee Table
When I found out that Lego was coming out with a bookshelf diorama featuring 221B Baker Street I was itching to get my hands on it. It was a bit pricey but came to me as a Father's Day gift. The set features Lego minifigs based on the Conan Doyle characters Professor Moriarty, Irene Adler, Dr. John Watson, and of course Sherlock Holmes himself. There is a bit of mystery about the set itself, however. Why did Lego introduce their own juvenile character instead of depicting Wiggins, of the Baker Street Irregulars. Some Holmes fans will recognize the art that adorns one wall of the apartment, but I will leave the rest of you to discover the connection to the history of the stories.
