I picked up the latest 'Adventurers' magazine today. In it is a DK ad that
shows some new books. 2 of their 'adventures' series, plus 2 that look
interesting: Fabulous Figures and Amazing Animals. "15 figures from 100
bricks" claims the former on the cover, so I presume they contain
instructions for making small people and animals.

Mind you, if the pictures on the cover are anything to go by, some of the
100 pieces will be difficult or IMPOSSIBLE to obtain - the animals one has a
picture of a camel in orange on the front cover featuring pieces I have
never seen in orange!

They are £3.99 ea and come out in October. I may be going past their shop in
Covent Garden on Monday so I'll check there then.
