Recommendation: no 6 / 10 by WhiteFang

This is an average polybag and it became rather receptive and popular to look out for because of the exclusivity for Hamleys. Furthermore, without the need to buy additional purchases to acquire this polybag certainly helps a lot. This is a very nice polybag and a great gift for friends and loved ones who don't visit to London and happen to be there to grab it for your souvenirs. Do get it at their SRP and don't overpay for this polybag if possible.

There is no denying the Royal Guard is a fun little minifigure and hopefully it will be the first of many more exclusive LEGO products to appear at Hamleys.

Joining 40308 Lester in the family of LEGO London exclusive minifigures, 5005233 is quite the stand out, either as a unique souvenir or for expanding your royal guard army collection. Despite the Hamleys mark-up it's still reasonably priced at £6, although that is of course double the price of collectable minifigs these days.
