Blue Cavern

I just bought the Captain smurf with blue jacket and red pants on Ebay. It seemed to be a genuine smurf(on the photos) but when i recieved it seemed a little bit strange. When you look at the smurf from the bottom, the jacket is not totally painted blue on the inside. Should it be alla blue or could there be variations, depending on the one who painted it?

Is there anyone who has it and can give me some help?
Thanx

Hi Daniel!

Welcome !

Here is a picture of the two blue original captains.
The blue of the captain with red feet is different then the blue color of the one with white feet ( and it should be different!!)

Lia

Thanx:) But is the jacket all blue(even on the "inside")?
On mine the blue paint doesn't cover the hole of the jacket

/D-man

the jacket is 100% blue, inside and outside!

Lia

That's what i thought. Mine is a repaint:( and i paid 76 dollars for it.....

Thanx for the info:)

So now i'm after the real one, you know where i could get one:)?

Oh dear, Daniel.

I bought mine wearing white pants, which has few minor rubs from Frans ( http://www.smrf.nl/ ), whilst being at his shop about two years ago for 20€. Unfortunently, I haven't been there for quite some time.

But I highly recommend you to get in touch with him.

hi,

Just have a spare one of the blue captain with white paints, if you need that one two

lilou

Yea i would like to have that one to:) What do you want for it?

Look at the fake i bought. It's really pourly painted...

Oh my blueness!!!

Big Daniel.

Thanks Ritter_Schlumpfenherz:) i'm going to check out the page:)

Varsågod Daniel.

Jag håller tummena. Jag heter Dominique.

Thank you Dominique:)

I don't think it's the last time i'm going to get screewed at Ebay he he but that's the way things are. Fakermakers everywhere...

I have been there a little while ago, but could not find much specials anymore. A much smaller part of the drugstore is dedicated to smurfs now than 2 years ago...
So the one from Lilou is a more sure bet to get a real one i guess...

I`m afraid , you are right Daniel:-(((((((
we all have bad experiences from time to time.
Your captain is really bad.

You should be able to find a blue/white captain for around 30 euros
the blue/red one is more expensive
Good luck!

@Ron: Last time I went there, I was told that part of the drugstore had to be rearranged into a proper post office, only because the regular post office was about to close.

@Lia and Moey: Word.

@Daniel: I was cheated by a guy, who tried to convince me that the Baseball Smurfette he had was genuine. Only a few hours later I was told that I had bought a fake one. At least, I was able to get a refund. But I learned my lesson well.

Sorry to hear you got scammed on this one Daniel, it really is sad that people have to resort to faking such lovely things as smurfs

I think we've all be scammed at some point. I hope you can get your money back or leave poor feedback or something. Make a claim and see what happens.
