Team GB - Bags 4-6

I had hoped that I would only open a few bags on Thursday night after or return from Tesco as I would have liked to save the enjoyment for a few more days - but who was I kidding - I know that when it comes to Lego I have no will power....

So another bag was grabbed.... Inside I was delighted to find my most anticipated figure... the Relay Runner.  He is quite easily identifiable due to his baton.


Those of you with keen eyes may notice that there are two runners here.... The official Relay Runner Minifigure is the one at the front - about to take the baton.


OK. Let me explain.... In Tesco's the very first bag I'd picked up had the baton shaped object in. Then when Mikey too felt the baton shaped object, whilst we were trying to identify the weightlifter (part of his bar-bells) I was happy. Mikey really is the king of bag feeling so I didn't double-check as it was getting on and we'd now been stood fondling bags for nearly 10 mins.


So when I excitedly tore open bag number 5, I was mortified when I found a 2nd Relay Runner.


My disapointment was short lived though when I realised a relay race would be rubbish with only one runner - so having a second wasn't too bad and as there are hundreds of Lego figures in this house it was simple enough to give one a new head.


The next packet to be opened was one that I was confident in.  It had the unmistakable bow and arrow of the Agile Archer in it.

The Agile Archer (I've altered the official cheery face for a look of concern) knows better than to try and get his gold medal back off a unpredictable Wookie. 
So that was Bag Numbers 4 - 6.... Stay posted for the contents of my final three bags. How many Swapsies will I end up with?
