Hello -I had checked with them in October of last year as I was enquiring into
Lego for my lads and their classrooms for Christmas, and unfortunately neither
the Hospital Group nor the Theme Town were available.
However, they were good enough to send me a huge 1 1/2" Hope color catalog
without my asking, and free of charge - in their Design & Technology category
were various sets, including a Lego Dacta (Duplo) Early Simple Machines Group
Pack with Duplo gears (at 265.95), various Lego Dacta Minisets of which one can
order the Gears, Levers, Pulleys or Wheels & Axles set, with activities for 8
students (at 104.95 each), and various Structures, Pneumatics, and Powered or
Simple Mechanism sets (at various costs), as well as Lego Cad Software (at
59.95).
They also include in the catalog, under their Early Learning catagory, many Lego
Dacta sets ranging from Duplo to Toolo to Adventures and Vehicles & Roadway
sets, as well as the Wheels (72 sets of wheels at 20.95), Red Roof Tiles (250
various slopes at 16.95), and Windows & Doors (70 red windows - white panes, 30
red doors, green shutters at 16.95), as well as baseplates and the thicker
baseplates.
I found this website through the official lego.co.uk website, clicking on
Parents, Lego Dacta, Where to Buy Group Play. There are a few online sites
listed.
Hope this helps someone!
Pam
