(...) My daughter received 3276 Scoop and Muck and 3272 Scoop on the Road last Saturday for her second b-day (and a green 3036 bucket), and she is thrilled with them. We almost didn't make it until the party though 8?) (...) I will scan up all the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Aug-01, to lugnet.duplo)

So we got our hands on a Big Building Box (what's all this about waiting for a kid's birthday? :-) and I introduced it to the scanner. Printed bricks: all the bricks here except the bananas. (URL) picture inventory: (URL) see what's meant by the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Aug-01, to lugnet.duplo)

(...) You're welcome. Your problem had me intrigued, and it kept me amused for a while :) (Actually it kept my husband amused too - watching me. He thought I'd lost it :) ) Actually an added bonus of digging out the Duplo: my just-turned-6 year old (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.duplo)

(...) Works like a dream...I just rounded off the tops of the backs of the legs. If I had a roto tool, I would've used that. Thanks for such an exhaustive report though...I truly appreciate it...I just wonder if LEGO hasn't heard of this before? (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.duplo)

(...) Bob 1 (from Bob, Lofty and the mice), doesn't really "snap" at all. However Bob 2 (from 3276) and Wendy both do a "soft snap". If I try really really hard I can sort of pinch my skin in passing in both of these but it doesn't hurt. (...) (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.duplo)

I'd just like to agree pretty much with what Mark said (that brought back memories!), except that my son came out the other side of these almost identical reactions with an absolute love of the trains. I bought our first battery engine set and the (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.duplo)

(...) Mark, Thanks for the advice. Sounds good to me. I think I'll buy him either the 2731 Railroad Express or the 2931 Circus Engine in addition to the 2933 Freight Train. I'll put the motorized Freight Train parts away until he's older and see how (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.duplo)

Todd, I don't want to deny you your 2933 - it's great - but until your son is two then go for either DACTA Push Train 9139 or Circus Engine 2931. Supplement this with DACTA Rails 9146 (certainly in the UK this worked out cheaper than buying the (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.duplo)

(...) Thank you very much for the information Deidre. My son is very much in the younger range. He turns 1 in a week. I've talked my mother-in-law into buying the train for Christmas so he'll be 1 1/2 by then. The suggested age on the box is 3+. (...) (23 years ago, 20-Jul-01, to lugnet.duplo)

(...) Duplo trains are in general excellent sets, and are very robust. We've never broken one (the engines have been dropped rather a lot, everything has been trodden on repeatedly), and they run well. I have both the mid-90s and 2000 ranges. The (...) (23 years ago, 20-Jul-01, to lugnet.duplo)
