Does anyone out there have a spare "Punk Rocker" from series 4 of the Lego Mini Figures?

My little fellow (4yrs old) has wanted one since he saw him on the front of the packet. Loves his Lego but something about the Punk Rocker blew his mind.

After about 5 packets we found one.

On Monday morning it went missing, Monday evening I found it. He had it back no more than 10 mins when the hair fell off.
He didn't notice but the dog did and ate it.

To say he was distraught is an understatement, cried for 10mins, didn't want the dog in the family, dog wasn't his best pal.

Now I'd love to be able just to pop into Smyths and buy one but no way of knowing which one I'm getting.

So if anyone out there has a spare "Punk Rocker" from series 4 of the Lego Mini Figures? please PM me it would make a little punk rocker very happy

Thanks
R

It'd be a good life lesson for him that material objects aren't a permanent, replaceble and reliable source of fulfillment.

The dog would bring him much more pleasure and companionship.

Not to worry, you'll get it back off the dog in time

Why? What were you trying to build.

(aside, tbh (and bear in mind I was a huge lego fan) I can't believe lego are selling standalone figures this way. Seems like a total rip-off?)

BTW, if you don't get the figure from someone could you not just buy another one and identify the figure beforehand by feeling the bag for the punk haircut piece or the guitar piece? They seem to be unique for series 4.

To think about the amount of times people have complained about boards.ie having a Lego forum. Seems like this is the perfect circumstance for it! Pfft.

Also Kudos to brummytom and Andip

I'm guessing Andip's dog ate his punk rocker but left the hair?

You can also buy the full set for about a fiver. Might be cheaper in the long run:
