Just pre-ordered the Inspector version from Sideshow. Seems to me that July-Sept 2021 for a delivery date is pretty quick, but I'm not too happy about the price.
I have another question...

Why?
Do we know for a fact that there is no sculpted hair under his inspector hat? Maybe the hairpiece is only needed for the gendarme sculpt.
I'd like to know the answer.
I'm with you Wor-Gar, just the Inspector for me... Just wish we would get some ungloved hands for it if we wanted to display him without the trench coat and just in his suit. He would look ridiculous in the suit with the gloved hands.
I'm also not a fan of the Gendarme head sculpt... It's more...
According to the Kaustic web site you'll have three choices, one will be the Inspector costume, the second will be the Gendarme costume with a different head sculpt, the third will be both heads and both costumes and all the accessories from both.
On a side note...
William Shatner starred in "A Shot in the Dark" on Broadway in the Cleauseau role but he wasn't called Cleauseau and wasn't an Inspector but rather a Magistrate.
Walter Matthau played the George Saunders role on Broadway.
This figure seems to be an almost exact copy of the Infinite statue. Do you guys think that they may remake their other statues, like their Bogart in 1/6 scale figure form?
I think they did a Groucho and Abbott and Costello statues among others. Would be great to see all Infinite's statues in...
I think there will be at least two separate releases. On the Kaustic web site https://www.kaustic-plastik.com/ it says "Peter Sellers - Version A - Chief Inspector"
I'm thinking Version - B will be Gendarme Cleauseau because of the baton and hat we've already seen.
