Lego Team GB Olympic mini-figures

Can't say I'm wildly excited about the event itself, but a good amount of the merchandise from the Olympics is certainly impressing. Like these Lego Team GB Olympic mini-figures, which are up there with the best of it.

Yes, you can recreate the Olympics in your very own home - and with a team of athletes that are certain to have better hair than the 'real thing'. You can collect nine different figures - a boxer, a swimmer, a relay runner, judo fighter, tennis player, gymnast, weightlifter, horse rider and an archer, each with his or her own accessory (we say his or her, but all look to be male to us).

The range will be sold from 1st July for £1.99 each in John Lewis, Argos, Tesco, WH Smith, Smyths and Toys R Us.
