Posted June 19, 201014 yr When looking at this EB thread , I found out that the Duplo line makes "Technic" parts too: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?q=duplo+technic . Check out these parts which may be useful for AFOL Technic MOCs: 6515 "Duplo Technic Brick 2 x 10 with 9 holes" 6530 "Duplo Technic Gear 6 x 6" [with 40 teeth] 51559 "Duplo Bridge Girder" I guess that, if you start TECHNIC builders YOUNG, they'll grow up to be the next great Technic AFOL!
