Lego again, 1980s Duplo

Here are some of the old Duplo sets which I had from the 1980s. Duplo is like a baby version of Lego, but nonetheless have the same plastic toughness of its more mature brothers. The pieces are large and the pieces are few, but then again how an a baby play with so many pieces?

Anyway, here are some of the stuff which I have:-

2705 Passenger Train. Items missing :( include 1 of the roofs, 1 more dude and a shovel

and my biggest Duplo set, 2655 Farm set. Features include 1 large barnhouse, horse, cow, pig, chicken, tractor, conveyor, table, chair and windmill. The current barn isn't as big as this anymore. Items missing: 2 more chickens and 1 sheep :(

All of them shown in 1 big picture. Got somemore, but the data bout the Duplo sets are very sketchy since there isn't much documentation on the internet bout Duplo. I believe that all these are 100% classic Duplo sets and are fit for a museum. The best part is that it is still playable and looks like new even after a good 20 years. Looks in way better condition than my Tomicas or Matchbox since it is all plastic and not paint nor metal parts. Another plus point: NO STICKERS!!!

Sometimes to escape the realities of life, you dig out some of your childhood memories and look back at how care-free you are during those times.
