Is the old sheep the same as the new? I actually don't have any sheep. (I am
waiting for 3 to arrive) But in the picture of set 2655, they look "squarer"
than the newer sheep at least in the photo. Do you have both types?

I did a search on etoys and the set numbers that the new dino colors are in
are 2821, and 2803. This shows the red ptyradactyl adult and baby. The yellow
comes in the sets2806 and 2604.

Could you give me set numbers for the two colors, please?
Are either of these colors the same as the orange in the dinosaur, or the
orange brown of the light brown horse?
(just trying to pinpoint the exact shade. only way of doing it is to find
another animal, the same color. Or at least having the set numbers, so I can
track some down myself)

Please, please, please, let me know where I can see the new duplo sets, they
must've been released in the US by now???? (Im in Australia, we wont see ANY
of the 2000 line up till MARCH!!!!!) Surely it should be ok to ask for
pictures_by now?
There has been no discussion here about the new Duplo sets, that I have seen,
other than my earlier comments about the new train and toolo sets. These,
however are the only new sets that I have been able to feast my eyes on. Where
do I go to have a look at them, can anyone help!!!!!!! (the suspense is
killing me!)
