LEGO® DUPLO® Deluxe Harbor Highway

Description

Road and harbour in big bricks

Duplo is the range of large bricks for pre-school children, and this set belongs to the Basic Sets. It was released in 1999 and consists of 50 pieces. The name combines two subjects that children like: vehicles on a road and the world by the water with boats and cranes. The two blend easily in free play, for instance when a vehicle brings a load to the harbour. The instructions are kept simple so that even small children can enjoy some success with a little help.

Bright colours and lots of types

Yellow, green, blue and red are the main colours, as you would expect from Duplo. What stands out most is the variety: among the 50 pieces there are 27 different part types. That is more than many other sets of this size and suggests special parts that make a model livelier than plain bricks would. Minifigures are not part of the count. If you are looking for a set with plenty of variety, there is a good amount of material here despite the low piece count.

Playing and building on

The harbour highway suits small scenes with vehicles, deliveries and boats. Because all Duplo bricks fit together, it can be extended as you like with a farm, a station or other sets from the toy box. Children decide for themselves how the road runs and where the harbour lies. Adults can ask questions and comment on what is happening without setting the agenda. Even after it is built the set stays easy to change, so it does not become boring quickly.

Parts list and collection

All 27 part types are listed in the parts list below, so you can check a second-hand set for completeness. If you add it to your collection, the What can I build? tool shows which further models your entire Duplo stock can make. That is especially handy when many sets have piled up over the years and nobody remembers which parts actually belong where. A quick comparison with the list pays off here, because a special part is easily missing from a mixed set like this.
