Well well well ... do a search for Smurfs one day out of the blue in google and find yourself in a great community like this one! To introduce myself ever so briefly, my name is Steven and I am from Toronto .. I recently had a child of my own come into this world, and her favorite toys are now my previously forgotten SMURF collection. Nothing fancy mind you, but once I dusted them off I figured to myself .. hmm I wonder if these are popular anywhere after all this time? I'm 32 and she's a mere 9 months. Et voila, I find myself here!

I've included a picture of my small collection ... I hope I did it right and that it isn't too big .. I look forward to adding to the collection for my daughter to enjoy, and perhaps even her children in the future!

Nice meeting you all!

S.

G'day Steven

Welcome to the forum :wave2:

We have some really nice people on this forum from Canada so it's great to meet another one. There are really nice smurfs there in that pic...I love the orange Jungle smurf, the Astros with the helmet are quite sought after and that case is also a very nice piece as well. You have a very lucky daughter who should love these little blue guys. Thanks for sharing the pic and I look forward to hearing how you and yoru daughter's collection grows and grows and grows.'

Nice to hear from you :D

:welcome: Steven! Glad you found us and didn't run away screaming :) I love that carrying case - I have wanted one of those for SO long but they do not pop up on ebay. You have a nice collection started for your daughter - a lucky little girl. She will be at a great age when the Smurf movie comes to the theater in 2008 too!!

:welcome: Steven!

Many of us are in their early thirties as well (although we have members from all ages, luckily), and many with young children. Most of us started with finding our childhood collection again and discovering then that there are loads of Smurfs on eBay and that new Smurfs are still being made. This is (IMO) the nicest Smurf place on the web, you can talk and ask about anything Smurfy (and most things non-smurfy) here, and you can even buy the best quality Smurfs straight from Karen (Kitty's Cavern).
