Me again, I've just got hold of the same set (and 3276 which I've yet to open).
I am currently sitting in my office without any "normal" Duplo figures so I
can't be specific on the differences (which I may be imagining), but Bob
does look different at the "waist" area on the back. Try as I might I can't
catch my skin in him though.
Will do a scientific Duplo figure analysis sometime this weekend and get
back to you.
Deidre (who got enough funny looks while digging Bob out of the box and so
isn't quite game enough to build the trucks at her desk :) )
