I've checked the DK site. I can find no reference to Biker Bob?

If you are going to buy the book, either find a local DKFL Advisor or
try www.dk.com.  There is currently an offer on where the book is on
sale for 8.99 and comes with a free Biker Bob model!

You might need a code for the website, if you do, email me directly and
I'll sort you one out.

BTW - the book is a great read.  That's a personal opinion, not a
company statement :-)

On the way back from seeing "The Blair Witch Project" this afternoon • (boy, is
that gonna be easy to do in Lego form!), I passed by a bookshop in • Glasgow

It also added that you could trade in your bricks for a special gift* • [*while
stocks last].
The poster was surrounded by a few copies of "The Ultimate Lego Book" by • DK
(£12.99), and, after browsing the book for a couple of minutes, the • poster
itself seemed to include images taken from it such as a Beefeater and a
globe... the book has some fan-tastic models in, but I'm in a quandary as • to
whether or not to buy it cos its just the kind of thing my Aunt would buy • me
for Xmas! [And also cos I'm almost bankrupt, but such is the student • life...]

I did some digging and it does indeed seem that this offer hasn't made it on to the website :-( I'm told that will soon be rectified. I know it exists as I have a Biker Bob on top of my monitor :-) However if anyone can't wait, the book can be (...) (25 years ago, 25-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)
