Tintin

That is sooooo cool

Got all 16 US Smurfs now waiting on an Asian set and a set put out by Nestle in Israel. Then hopefuly someone from Australia will sell me a set as I have no US doubles to trade.


Keep on smurfing

I received this English display today....it's not really set up yet but laying on my bed. It's too large to set up for now but will be It's in several parts...trust me this picture does not give it full credit

The second one was I think hung from the ceiling...when I first saw pictures, I thought it's a smaller paper display, but it's quite large as well

Love them!! I like to see how mcdonalds does things differently in other countries, you wouldn't think of marketing carrots to kids here.... then again up till a short while ago it was unheard of to give them apple dippers in there happy meal. Neat to see.

great displays Maureen! well done! Look forward to seeing how you setup the display

Vanity Smurf is out in my local McDonalds today on my stop home. I have been checking other McDonald stores all week and they all are still on the first 2 smurfs apart from the one close to my work. This is becoming expensive, lol. Sofar I have ended up with 14 each of Hefty & Harmony, 15 of Chef (I was making up the number to 14 but the woman couldn't count and I was given an extra Chef for free, hehe).. & I have 5 of Greedy (not sure but my local didn't seem to have many of these. I'm guessing probably because he is one of the two that weren't released in the Asian McDonalds so I really need to find these somewhere else) and now 5 of Vanity. I was only planning to make 10 sets.. then decided to cap it at 12... but then my mum bought some happy meals and got 3 more of each the Hefty and Harmony, which brought the total on those to 14 so I guess I'll have to cap it again at 14 sets or still cap at 12 and make up the other sets later on down the track with finding them at markets etc... all this smurfing around hehe

Hi Maureen

Very nice again !!!!
Carrots at the McDonald's ??? Never heared of that

Tintin

I've seen the same display with apples, I think, so I think they had both

I know they had the apple dippers display, but I never heard of the carrots.

Hi

No carrots and apples for me......... i want the healthy burgers and French fries

The McDonald’s Smurfs will arrive to Italy too after all, starting from this Friday as the leaflets say. I don’t collect them as I didn’t for the ones from the US or other European Countries in the past months, so I don’t know if they are different, if they are plastic figurines or plushes. I will go there on the first day just to check them out and take one Happy Meal but if some of you is interested in getting the whole set, I will ask if they give them out for a reduced price than the Happy Meal’s (that in Italy is 4 euros) and let you know.

OK, a big disappointment today as I went to McDonald’s and the Italian Happy Meal toys are the small plushes we've already seen from the UK and Holland. Each week there are two new subjects to complete a set of 10. From the bpz or the instructions on the bags there is nothing written in Italian (and the toys are obviously made in China). Only the boxes have the “I PUFFI” writing, but here too the Dutch boxes had the same drawings.
I was able to get two smurf and two smurfette plushes for 1 euro each, and next week there will be another pair of smurfs from the set of 10. If any of you is interested in the whole set, please pm me.

I think there are four different ceiling hanging displays, and today I got two more

Wow !! Congrats Moey
Love that Papa/apple display !!

Hey, I got my hands on 6 of the US set but I got 2x Angry with the pink butterfly on the nose... anyone have an extra that want to trade for this one?

We have really been shortchanged in Europe for the McDonald Smurfs this time round: Asia, Australia and the Amricas have far nicer ones!!!!!

Cheers,

David

I agree David. Ours were really quite boring in comparison. My favourites are the Australian ones.

By the way it's nice to see that you're back

I second that, Tojo...on both accounts
