Hi Benjamin,
having seen the AUS version now, I think it's basically the same 2000.2
catalogue as the german [-European?] one, but there are also a couple of
differences however. Nearly on every page you will find something which is
slightly different from our pages. In the Duplo setcion, the AUS catalogue
even shows a LOT more products than we have, that's strange. Also (although
I haven't seen your SW pages yet), the german catalogue does NOT show the
new Pod Bucket #7159, although it is available here. I'd better not try to
understand all this however...
Bye, Christian --- xTI@N.
P.S.: Note that I usually reply slow...

However, we don't necessarily get all the sets shown in this, and we don't have any SCALA or ZNAP sets down here either [or service packs as shown in the (...)
