We just got the Fall 1999 DK Family Learning catalog (from
Dorling-Kindersley, of course). There are several LEGO books, most of
which have been mentioned. But I think there is one brand-new one. Or
maybe I haven't been paying close enough attention. Anyway, here's the
info:
_The Ultimate LEGO Book_ ISBN:0-7894-4691-X
This one looks amazing! Except for the Rock Raiders shown front-and-center
on the cover. But the rest of it looks great. I'm sure it will make a
wonderful companion to _The World of LEGO Toys_.
LEGO Modelers
_Amazing Animals_ ISBN:0-7894-4775-4
_Fabulous Figures_ ISBN:0-7894-4777-0
These are sub-billed as "15 figures from 100 bricks". They appear to be
idea/instruction books. No mention of including pieces, so I assume they
don't.
LEGO Interactive Puzzle Books:
_The Lost Temple_ ISBN:0-7894-4706-I (-1?)
_Rock Raiders_ ISBN:0-7894-4707-X
_Castle Mystery_ ISBN:0-7894-3728-7
_The Curse of the Mummy_ ISBN:0-7894-3729-5
_Insectoid Invasion_ ISBN:0-7894-3730-9
LEGO Action Maze Books:
_Gold Robber_ ISBN:0-7894-3652-3
_Jewel Thief_ ISBN:0-7894-3653-1
_Spy Catcher_ ISBN:0-7894-3654-X
_Treasure Smuggler_ ISBN:0-7894-3655-8
We don't have *any* of these books, I'm just reporting what's listed in the
catalog. Nice two-page spread, listed right behind the Star Wars spread,
in the "Children's Frontlist".

| (...) This IS a nice book. A bit of a putup job for the latest lines, and for the models you'll see in miniland. Rubs my nose in piece unavailability to the unwashed public a bit, but I'm getting used to that. :-) Light on details of manufacturing, (...) (25 years ago, 6-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

| (...) I picked this one up at Legoland Windsor (1). It's by DK, the same folks who gave us the "Incredible Cross-Sections" Star Wars books, among other things. It's not quite up to par with other DK books I've seen, but it is a good buy in and of (...) (25 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)
