[Tracker Smurf]

Speaking of exclusive, the smurfs grab ems were supposed to be exclusive to Toys R US acording to them but if that be the case why did I find them in Target.......lo.l I can't wait to get the new smurfs as well as the older ones too.

I think the only thing that was exclusive was the escape from gargamel packaging and the clear smurfette and papa that was in that assortment. K-mart has the grab ems now as well

Last year the first pictures of the new smurfs was shown on the forum around the 1st of November!!

[Tintin]

Hi

Yes that's always around that time the first pictures are on the forum.
Most of the times the smurfs are in the shops around march.
Only 2 times i got them in januari.........................
So even when you see the first pictures you still have to wait until next year to buy them.

Tintin

[Smurfysmurf]

[Smurfysmurf]

Oh well, at least they will still be new variations with new paint and markings.

[Tintin]

Hi

I think i will like them with new colours, but still, every year i am nervous to see some new models.
This isn't just the same, so a bit disapointed

Maybe Christy wanted to say that the new smurfs don't have the new style of the 2011 smurfs? I really hope we will see pictures of them soon - for example this weekend.

[Smurfysmurf]

Good point, Simon

Didn't even think of that

[Tintin]

Maybe Christy wanted to say that the new smurfs don't have the new style of the 2011 smurfs

That's what i think to, nothing bad about Christy

About the pictures, well i wouldn't mind having them last weekend
