p16: Baby Mickey
p18: Duplo Brick Runner
p23: Duplo gets a house again (and dad does the vacuuming!)
p24: Duplo gets two new motorised train engines (US Diesel and Euro express,
but both on the old 4-wheel base)
p26: Action Wheelers
p28: MyBot (Duplo meets Mindstorms? sensors... alarms... sounds...)
