Price on his auction may still rise (the last minutes can be sometimes quite exciting), and his box is in a slightly lesser condition!
Prices can vary seriously from one auction to the other, I've noticed. I've bought the Jubilee smurf for 13 Euro last week, and this week the same seller sold the same smurf for 18 Euro!

Well I couldn't list any cheaper or I would be losing money. I just listed it to create interest in my auctions really! Not too worried if it doesn't sell this time.

This is a different box in size but the wording is similiar to others so I have not included this one as a variation although techincally it is a variation comparted to all of the others.

Slight variation: this one has the same lettering and words, but a different border (not like it is painted on a wooden plank). You are welcome to consider this first class nitpicking :)

Hi Fram

I have included that one in my list...it is no.8.

I will have to do some photos which willmake it clearer and then I will make that a new sticky and let this one fall down I think so the pics are at the start of the thread.

If you do see any that you think are not mentioned then please keep posting them as I want to get to the bottom of how many different variations there are and I appreciate your help in keeping an eye out for anything different.

:cheers:

Hi Attom

They all seem to have this although some people cut it off because it does appear to be an extra plastic bit that isn't part of the actual fishing rod. I have decided to leave these on all of my recent ones as they do give the effect of a reel I think.

Dyar

PS - Don't mention this to Stace as she was once picked up by a Rod and unfortunately got hooked but she was lucky to escape back into the sea before the Rod and another buoy came chasing back after her....it's a reel story too.

ah thanks! that makes sense! I think it looks away nicer with the reel.!

and do you think Eggie was turned into bait? hooked and lured by the rod?/

It was very close, Attom, but I'm a slippery fish to catch!

(And I thought Jamie was a "she" - good to know you've confirmed it, Andrew :D )

And then there is this exceptional one of a kind box. How do you categorize such a thing?
hey! is this box a special box?/

I bought one but I am really after the older play set..one..this one sucks! for me!:))) :shock: :shock: the other one has a roof thing!

It's larger than the normal size box.

When I get home tonight I will aim to do a thorough report on the super boxes finally...I put it off to last weekend but I got swamped with friends and chores and things that couldn't be put off so I was too exhausted in the end....I will do it tonight.

Dyar

PS - They are making a reel life movie over in Driftwood about the story of Stace and that Rod...there is still a debait about who should play Stace with so many clambering over each other wanting to swim their way to the top.....and they are still searching for an Errol Finn type character to play Staci's love interest, although they are not willing to shell out big bucks for that role since they have scaled his part back.

You will have to talk to Stace as she wrote the script....I think she wants Sydines actually.

I have been trying to land the job of Mermaid caster.....because I don't care to have a head job, I am happy to just work near the top.

I have on my resume credits which include:

Bra Bra Black Sheep
Bosom Buddies
Tit-anic...although this was more about going down

Some people shoot to the top, while others stagger there...I am hoping to fondle my way to the top and when the opportunity comes I will grope it with both hands. :gimme:

:woohoo: :mrgreen: :weird: :woohoo: :mrgreen: :weird::woohoo: :mrgreen: :weird:

People may say I am a little one eyed in my hobbies :cyclops: ...but I like things that have the potential to grow

PS - This is a poor attempt at humour so please forgive the rudeness....I am just being silly and will probably be very embarrassed the next time I read this

What I meant is this; compare this box with this box. They have the same wording, same colours, but the background for the words is different: one is a yellowish rectangle, and the other is a wooden plank. It's a small difference, but to me, it is a difference. It might of course well be that every Super exists as one or the other and never as both, that I haven't checked...

Hi Fram

They are actually the same style box....if you turned one of those boxes around...you would see it looked like the other one. They are both planks except for on one side the plank goes over the edges...in other words doesn't fully fit on the front face of the box. I have taken all of the pics and I will be doing my SUPER SMURFS BOX report now. I have taken pics of the front and back so hopefully you will see what I mean.

Thanks for the effort though to prove your point as this is something pretty new to me and it made me double check what I had here. If you still think I am wrong then please let me know and I will fix an errors that you find.

Thanks

Dyar

No, you may well be right! I just thought those picture looked different, and never thought that they might well be two sides of the same thing... And we certainly don't need too many new versions, it's difficult enough as it is now!

LOL...Fram, you are right that we don't need any more variations to collect....and I may be wrong still so pay attention to the report and let me know if you see anything wrong or if you know of any others.

Cheers

I will! The sad thing is that I only have one Super in an old box (an a few in the new boxes)...
