The new Duplo is now in-store near me. The sets look good, and there are
tonnes of new parts. The main points of note:

1. Pink Duplo
Girl type sets are back. These sets are themed like the early Belville.

2. Transparent bricks
At least one of the sets have 2*4*1 transparent bricks - used to make a river.

3. The Picture Bricks are gone!
Rather than a 2*1*2 picture brick - we now have actual items - eg carrots
and sweet corn (maize). This got me thinking about the picture bricks - how
many are there. We have ~100 at home, of those around we have >50 types.
Does anyone know how many different types there are?

4. There is a Tent Part.
This is quite big (~12*12*4). In a safari set this is zebra patterned. But
in one of the "pink" sets is transparent and looks 100% good!
