Blue Cavern

Hi Guys

I woke up on this glorious Monday (public holiday you see) to find that I had won 2 auctions I was really happy about.

The first one was a whole heap of smurf books and a smurf Rubiks Cube. This was an auction by forum member all round nice guy Dennis. Most of the books are in Dutch although there is one German one as well...it's just nice to have a few langauage versions of the small books cos they look......cool I suppose.

The 2nd auction I won was for the BP Smurfmobiel which I have been after for about 2 years. I know Attom already has this item and now I am thrilled to have one as well. This one was MIB so I cannot wait for it to arrive.....it's one of the last main items I have been after (Large Tree Stump, Motorised Windmill & Schlumpf-burg are the others on my if I found a genie I would wish for list).

Here are the pics:

WOW the smurf mobiel

I was only wondering yesterday if you were still the highest bidder

Well Done

Oh nice wins, Dyar! Ebay is my friend today at least as I won 2 auctions overnight also. I paid a bit more than I really wanted to for the first lot (the jungly made me do it!) but the other auction with the sockel is the first sockel I have bought for about 6 months and was a steal at only $5US. I just hope they don't rort me on the postage now!

Does anyone know anything about the smurfs in this first pic? The description says: Schlumpf Schlümpfe === 4 blaue Minis === Rohlinge



I am sure they are not rohlinge as far as "normal" rohlinges go. They look a lot like the hard plastic mini Omo smurfs to me but I have a full set of the 16 of them and I'm sure theres no jungle one in that lot. That torchbearer looks like he comes from a keyring or something and is slightly bigger than the rest??? Perhaps Omo has made some more of these and put in their packets??? Any suggestions anyone? I might email the seller also and see what I can find out.



PS: The first time I read that sockel I read it as "Reach out and touch me...someone." OOPS!

Ok now to answer my own question about the little blue smurfs. Oliver sent me a reply and this is what he had to say:

they are hard material (only the torch bearer is soft) they are miniatures, smaller than regular smurfs
they are coming from a chewing gum automat from between 1970-1980
in german we have had those automat where you can get a gum + figure for a little coin.
best wishes

Is this the complete set ???

Nice wins Linda...that mini Jungle smurf is really cool and one I would like to have someday. These are like the OMO minis except they are more of a grey blue or a darker blue. I have some of these on my site...but only 4 of them and there are quite a lot of different smurfs in this set.....just checks the DSK which shows 30 different ones including the Jungly fella.

Here's the link to the page...they're the very last pic:

Cheesy, the set I am talking about is not for the sockel it is for the Omo smurfs but hey thats a nice looking piece anyway.

Heres a pic of the Omo smurfs from my website (ignore the orange one..hes a game piece if i remember correctly! Its not the best picture I must admit either!




Hmmm looking at the pics on page 308 and 309 of the DSK you can definitely see the differnce in the colour between the jungle and the Omos, Dyar.

hi Dyar!

those are super wins for you! so glad you got your BP mobile!

and no competition on the bids! wow! great deal!


I also have that phone smurf in the clear piggy bank box

I heard it was a employee item for AT & T.. the american phone company.

Hi dyar, congratulations on your fantastic ebay wins. The smurf Mobil looks really cool. Also welldone to Linda on her really great ebay win too. I hope like you say they dont try to sting you on postage costs Lucie

Thanks Little Lucie

I bought this when I was half asleep this morning.....finally I have one of these as well.

Dyar

PS - I may have another look at this pic when I am more awake.....hopefully it wasn't really a Doofus Clown that I bought.

Hey you must have been a little awake to spot these fab items Lucie

The auction link was sent to me by a friend as I never search ebay.......cos bad things happen when I do that.

Congratulations Margaret.....I can't wait to get mine and I'm really thrilled that you found some as well.

Dyar

PS - Where's Stace again?....You don't suppose that a Vegas chef saw her and added her to the menu on the weekend do you? Maybe swimming by sea might take our little fishy a little longer to get back home......even longer by sea if someone ate her.

OOh Dyar, i love those badges. They are really cute Lucie
Ps What Bad things happen to you when you search ebay?? Does Mrs Dyar wallop you for spending too much on smurfs?? Luce

Bad things happen like my ebay saying that Iam winning over $600 worth of auctions even though I only placed minimum bids......somehow I end up bidding on over 70 items so I have decided (or maybe Mrs Dyar decided for me) that I am not allowed to look at ebay anymore. The funny thing is that I always get offersoff ebay and I always have about 2-3 weeks worth of deals lined up so I have never really needed to look anyway to find things......I guess there are just too many damn smurf things out there that I want......er....need I meant. I guess you all personally know what I mean by that.....well I don't really need to guess do I?.....I just know what we are all like.

Dyar

Lovely goodies guys, you have all been busy lately.

I have been having a bit of a smurfy drought lately but apparently I have a smurf pressie arriving tomorrow from my mother (anti-smurfer) so I am all excited now.........
