There is no relation at all. They are a true mystery, because they look
more like something between Duplo and System (yet Duplo can work with
System!). I sincerely hope that LEGO takes a big punch for this one series,
perhaps it will hurt them so bad they'll ditch it after 6 months and bring
out a new series of Town (like the stuff from 1989-1996!) with no junior
instructions (One booklet per set!!) and a nice selection of multi-useful
parts that are NOT juniorized. Just in time for X-mas 2001, too. That is
my pipe dream. Heck, I'd even go buy Paradisia sets on eBay for inflated
prices (not that there's anything wrong with that) than EVER buy these 2001
Racer POOPs and BURPs (Big Ugly Racer POOPs[Piece Of Obvious Putridness])!
That is what I have to say about that.

| (...) That is exactly what they are for. There is an age range of *children* who are too old for DUPLO, but too young for System. (...) Please keep in mind that wishing for bad things doesn't help anything...and also remember that this product line (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)
