I'd guess this will happen when the moulds have to be replaced due to wear.

I actually do/did have new Duplo bricks bought in the last 2 years with Lego
stamped on them rather than Duplo.  These were most likely from buckets
manufactured in Korea rather than the Baar factory.  Oddly enough I seem to
recall it was only one or two of the basic colours, not all of them.

I'm not sure if I still have these bricks, the buckets were bought for the
special pieces rather than the basic bricks and I tend to throw what I
consider excess Duplo (still brand new) into a tub and make up packages for
the Giving/Wishing Trees at Christmas.  Last year I was in hospital for most
of the pre-Christmas period so the gift packages didn't happen, hence I may
still have some.  Will try to have a look sometime soon.
