Very nice, is this figure one of the limited editions (MICA) or is it something else?

It's amazing the likeness of that model to the Great man himself.

I would have loved to have been there back in 2004.

Thanks Ritchie. I wonder whether a figure was ever considered for Jack Odell? I could guess his reaction though :D

Only one problem here, his title is not Sir as he was never made a Knight. He was bestowed with the Order of the British Empire (OBE), that means he's just Mr. Leslie Smith OBE.
