Trivia
- The set is based on Sherlock Holmes, the fictional sleuth created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The name is a reference to the detective's famous phrase "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth".
- The descriptions for the Mysterious Treasures while wearing this set also referenced Sherlock Holmes. When combined, the full quote read "Think of the deeds of hellish cruelty, the hidden wickedness which may go on, year in, year out, in such places, and none the wiser."
