Blue Cavern

Hi there

I received this package today which featured a few different types of things including some new smurf books for Jack to harass me with.

Some more of the books from today...

I also received this Cottage in the Irwin Box and a few Unlicensed Ceramic Smurfs.

Cermaic Smurfs

1. Smurfette (arrived perfect)


2. Papa (the ear fell off during the journey)


3. Normal (more than the ear fell off during the journey unfortunately)

nice smurfy stuff...

funny about the big fake ceramic... i had won one of these that was in a lot of other smurfy things and he broke into a million pieces too... i don't think this guy was made very good.. at least the papa can be fixed.. well the smurf can too if you are good at puzzles

Nice Dyar!

I didn't realise you collect the books as well !

I only collect what Gerda collects...that's all....and I mean that is all

I have bought some books in the past and Jack really likes them so I bought these to read to him. I guess my arm didn't have to be twisted too hard.

Dyar

Ha, ha,

maybe you could sort out a deal. You read Jack the books if he puts the broken smurf back together

I have that What do Smurfs do all Day book, it's really nice for kiddies learning to read, and for me of course! Shame about your ceramics but still a lot of goodies!

I received some new items today that are little different so I thought I would share them. However before I do that I will mention that I found 2 new variations for my regular smurfs which are:

20036 Hang-Glider - Schleich S
20070 Harp - Bully & Peyo C (hand-etched)

I previously had the Harp with W Germany Bully markings and even had one with Peyo C hand-etched but this is the first time I have been aware of one with Bully & Peyo markings hand-etched.....does anyone else have these variations?

Ok...here are 3 smurf phone cards although I am not sure where they are from or what year they were released or how many exist. I bought them from the Netherlands so I am only guessing they originated from there.

Here are 3 smurfs that I had no idea what they were when I bought them....but since they have arrived I realised that they are actually Bobblehead Smurfs....with enormous feet.

The first one is Papa, the 2nd is Trumpeter....any idea what the 3rd one would be? Mrs Dyar suggested Stoned Smurf but I am not sure if that was the original intention of the creator.

Does anyone have any of these or know anything about them....cos I know nothing.

The markings are "Peyo C" only

Dyar

Those smurfs look like they hit the gym a few times I know nothing about any of those items you got. Those phone cards sure look good..

Hi Gerda

I found those bobbing head smurfs on page 23 in Tina's book....it's very reliable in working out what things are. They are called Wackel Smurfs. There seems to be a few of them including a Traveller, Mechanic with spanner, one with a spade, one with an axe and one with a guitar. I think one of mine is missing one of the accessories which might be the guitar.

Dyar

Those are some really cool Smurfs!

I checked out What Do Smurfs Do All Day at the library not too long ago, and drew a lot of images from it.

Hi Dyar, I always enjoy seeing your new goodies and this lot is no exception. Sorry to hear about the ceramics, I think the Papa should be easy to fix but I am not so sure about the normal one.

Some very nice different smurfy merchandise as well, I love those bobble heads.

this is the first time I have been aware of one with Bully & Peyo markings hand-etched.....does anyone else have these variations?

I have the Harp smurf with hand cut Bully on feet and hand cut Peyo on arm, is this the one you have?

Hi Rach....yep it's the same as the one I have. I haven't seen this one around a lot before though.

Dyar

Hi Dyar, I have to admit, I do love the handcut bully smurfs, I think it is probably because you know they are old.

I had never really thought about the marking of this smurf, my double handcut one arrived in a large lot. I suppose with the variations that don't have obvious differences in colour or size it is far more difficult to say how common a particular marking is.
