Oh, congratulations Rasleigh!!!

[FlamingO]

Congratulations Rashleigh on your wonderful news

[Cassiebsg]

Congrats Rashleigh!

I love that big smurf!!!

I don't think they'll hit my city either, but maybe they'll hit Lisbon... But what would be the chances of a friend/family finding one and thinking I would love to get it?

[Rachel]

Congratulations Rashleigh, that is wonderful news.

Shame about your trip but you can always do this again with your little smurfer with you.

[Rashleigh]

We are expecting the little Smurf to arrive between 25-30 July 2008.

At the moment we have a fee special Smurf items for the Nursery to welcome their arrival.

It's incredible to say, but IMPS answered to my e-mail and said that the white raw smurfs will be available for sale, if you are not among the lucky ones to find them during the night, at the unicef stands for 10 euros each (profit will go to charity), but they didn't say either in which cities or on what days the celebrations would take place; and they also didn't mention different molds, so I suppose the smurfs will be all the same mold and like the one on the picture with the unicef bag at the beginning of this thread.

[Cassiebsg]

Oh cool!
Thanks for the update. At least one will be able to buy it for 10€, so no need to go rushing like crazy to e-bay and pay bundle of euros.

And I'm sure there'll be at least a few of us that are or can be at the featured cities. I'm guessing that finding the smurfs will be lucky strike, but once they're unleash and the news of the target city is out that the Unicef stand will be there for at least a couple days. What would be the point of removing it right away and losse all the possible profit for the children?

Euro Tour..è cominciata l'avventura!!..Urrà!
La prima città dell'Euro tour dei nostri amici Puffi è Angoulême in Francia.
Ecco le dichiarazioni: "Il 24 gennaio abbiamo inaugurato il nostro anno di festeggiamenti ad Angoulême in Francia. Ce la siamo spassata tutta la notte a nascondere Puffi bianchi per tutta la città. Se ne hai trovato uno, puoi trasformarlo come vuoi e partecipare al grande Concorso Creatività. Non perderti i 4 giorni della Mostra del Compleanno e l’inaugurazione del Puffo Celebre, creato da una personalità locale"

Wow, I so hope that I can find some of these smurfs..I like the video..I wonder how many of the ones the guy at the end of the video was putting into his bag will end up on ebay

[smurfer]

Thank you Francesca !!!!!!
What a fantastic news !!
The smurfs are comming !!!

Let's hope that the smurfs go to the people who love's them the most ...
(that will be us , the Blue Cavern Forum members)

But I'm afraid Steve will be right : These Smurfs will be sold for to much money on Ebay ..

[Rachel]

Thanks for letting us know what IMPS said Paolo and Thanks Francesca for the link to their updated news.

I totally agree that it would be such a shame if we as long term smurfers are unable to get one of these beautiful smurfs or that we end up having to pay large amounts on Ebay.

I have actually contacted IMPS on behalf of the members here to see if there is any way that we can get them directly from them. I mentioned our concern about Ebay prices and also the fact we have many members who don't live in Europe. I also asked a few other smurfy questions. I will of course let you know if I hear anything back.

I suppose if the worst comes to the worst we will have to try and sort out a plan so that if any members here are lucky enough to make it to one the cities visited, then they could try and pick up / buy as many of these smurfs as possible.

[smurfieduck]

That's terrific, Rachel! I hope you get some joy with Imps.

I am more than happy to collect smurfs for people if the smurfs come to London. Fingers crossed that they do!!

[Simon X]

Great news!
And, Rachel, very clever. I wonder what their answer will be...

I like the celebrity smurf you can see on the website:

[Smurfysmurf]

I love the Asterix smurf....wouldn't it be cool if they made him into a smaller figure for those of us who love smurfs and Asterix

[Rachel]

[Tojo]

OH WOW!! My 2 favourite comic passions amalgamated into one That is incredible!!

Thanks for showing the picture Simon

Rachel, I hope you have some luck with IMPS & that their reply is a positive one. I don't for a moment expect that the roadshow will visit Frankfurt or any of the surrounding towns such as Mainz etc (although I have heard that pigs can fly ) so it would be very nice to be able to get hold of one of these smurfs without paying silly ebay prices (the BASF smurfs are finally selling for less than €25 but I still haven't managed to get one as I'm only willing to pay max. €20,01 ).

[Syd Smurf]

Great to hear you contacted IMPS Rach......I really hope you get a reply and that some of these smurfs are made available to many of us outside of Europe or the places where they will be selling them. They look so nice and I can only hope we all get a chance to get one.

Keep us posted please
