Hi:lol:

I got this red surprise smurf today!

but I can't find it in the katalog or on Mushroom.com guide??

and I also got two brainy's with yellow glasses..from two different sellers! and a third on the way.. these were hidden in cheap lots.


any info on the red suprise?/ it is red !! not orange..and very soft rubbery material..

the normal surprise smurfs are hard rubber..like..

here are pics ...

Hi Attom, nice smurfs. :D
Great finds with the yellow brainys, we have found a few in lots as well, very difficult to spot sometimes. :sherlock:

Regarding the all red suprise, I am not really sure. I don't have one to compare to but I always assumed that it would be a similar material. :-?

Here is a close up pic that I have found of one.
I don't know if it will help or not. :scratchinghead:

Hi Sherlock Attom...fantastic buys once again. I have been after a Yellow Brainy for a while now so if you were interested in selling one please let me know.....although you are probably like me and hate selling off any of your blue treasures.

Love the Surprise Cone/Bag/pointy thingy.....what I would give to splurge on Ebay and webshops without having to worry about the paying side of things.....yeah I know...dream on.

Dyar

Yep, the yellow brainy was a UK release. :reporter:

I don't think there are any other colours, red, black and yellow seem to be it.

That is very naughty if correct, I haven't noticed fakes of the suprise bags before, apart from the odd wacky repaint. Worth keep an eye on me thinks. :eye:

Any more info Sherlock Attom, please report back. :sherlock:

Hi John, do you mean the auctions end at that time or thats when they start (appear)?
If it's the end I think it maybe due to daylight hours changing, I know the clocks go back here an hour this weekend. :-?

time going back 1 hour

Hi John, to be honest I am not really sure. It has been quite a while since I have listed on Ebay. I seem to remember something funny happening when the clocks changed but I really can't rememeber exactly. Sorry. :-?

Anyone else? :pleasehelp:

hello raresmurf, i had bought them from a german seller which ,unfortunatly, i cannot get back on line, no replies for the last 2 years, that is how long i have tried to reach him. I have given up. :(
I do not think anyone would repaint a genuine red and gold surprise bag, not worthed. A long while ago i have seen them on ebay fetch $125+US.
If they would be faked we would see more of them. But for the last few years i have not seen them.
I enjoy, when i can, reading all your messages, you are the best group i have seen, i really like you all :-D
John


Thanks!!!


I like you too!! one of the best sellers of smurfs!!

Yellow Brainy on Ebay

Great smurfs, Attom! I've heard from someone in Germany that indeed there is someone with some fake schultute (sp?) bags they are putting in the smurfs hands. Not sure if that is one though!

So right on not being able to easily spy out the brainy with yellow glasses.
Especially if he is lying down :lol: Here's one:
