FAQ
Why is it called film noir?+
Film noir is the name for the shadowy black-and-white crime films of the 1940s and 1950s, which Jay’s Brick Blog points to as the inspiration — hence a figure printed entirely in greyscale.
Does the Film Noir Detective have a fabric collar?+
Yes. A turned-up fabric collar sits over the printed trench coat, and the coat print carries on down the dual-moulded legs (Jay’s Brick Blog, Merlin’s Bricks).
