I finally found the time to upload my duplo sets database to the web. The database currently has information on 562 sets, with images of 344 of those. I believe that the information is much more extensive than Pause. Take a look at (URL) (25 years ago, 10-Dec-99, to lugnet.duplo)

FYI, in case it has not been mentioned in awhile, the Playmobil boat motor fits very nicely in the stern of the LEGO floating boats. ;-) Also, if you have a friendly neighborhood toyshop, they might order a "replacement" (...)

It so strange the way Toolo's seem to have been distributed to stores in the US. Every store I have seen a Toolo set in, has always only had one type of toolo set. Never more than one per store. Today I cam across a Toolo set new to me: 2945, which (...) (25 years ago, 13-Nov-99, to lugnet.duplo)
