Hello everyone, I’m Paolo from Italy and I’m desperately looking for the Smurf plush toys made by the Italian factory TRUDI. I know for sure that there are 15 different subjects (smurf, smurfette, papa, angry, …) and I really want to collect them all. So, if you have them for sale or if you can give me useful information on how to get them, please reply to me. Thanks and greetings from Italy, Paolo.

I know gargamelenazrael had some, that is their user id, or they can be contacted via the forum, they are on the memberlist, they joined just a few days ago.

Welcome!

This seller has three of them for sale and ships worldwide. They are cheap, but I do believe that these are the easiest ones to find.
Apart from that, I know nothing of them...

Hello Paolo, i collect Trudi smurfs too. I have the normal ones Papa, smurfette and the normal smurf. Ive also got a King, Hefty, black Angry and one holding a pillow and lastly a larger version of the smurfette. Ive seen a brainy and one holding a present and one holding a pencil. Are there any other versions, if so which other have you seen? I will post a picture of the ones i have Lucie

Hello Paolo, welcome aboard.

I am afraid I don't really collect the plush smurfs so I don't know much about them but I will certainly keep a look out for them for you.

I did buy a few small plush smurfs from Italy in fact last year. I am not sure if they are Trudi smurfs though. I will check when I can.

Hi everyone, here's the information I have on the Trudi Plush Smurfs: I once contacted a Trudi representative who told me that there are 15 of them belonging to this collection made in 2000-01, and they are about 20-25 cm high. There is also a collection of 3 plush smurfs who are somewhat higher (only smurf, surfette and papa smurf). I have the list of the 15 smurfs given to me by that person (in Italian, since the Trudi factory is locate in Italy) and I post it here right now with an English translation:

PUFFO; GRANDE PUFFO; PUFFETTA; PUFFO NERO; PUFFO PITTORE; PUFFO CUOCO; PUFFO GOLOSONE; PUFFO PIGRONE; PUFFO BURLONE; PUFFO INVENTORE; PUFFO QUATTROCCHI; PUFFO VANITOSO; PUFFO VOLANTE; PUFFO FORZUTO; PUFFISSIMO.

SMURF; PAPA SMURF; SMURFETTE; BLACK SMURF; PAINTER SMURF; COOK SMURF; GREEDY SMURF; SLEEPY SMURF; JOKEY SMURF; HANDY SMURF; BRAINY SMURF; VANITY SMURF; FLYING SMURF; HEFTY SMURF; KING SMURF.

Thanks to all of you, gargamelenazrael in particular, and to Karen who directed me to her.
Greetings from Italy, Paolo.

Hi Paolo, I'm glad Veronique sorted something out for you. I got some of my Trudis from them and was very pleased with them. I am still working on trying to find a supplier for these so I can stock them on my website but it is difficult.

[Little lucie @ Simon]

Hi Paolo, thanks for sharing that info with me. I never realised there were so many plush smurfs available. I go to a toy fair here in england twice a year and there is a seller who goes regularly who sells these. I must have a better look next time to see if there are any of these i am missing. Thanks Lucie

[Guest]

Is that one at Harrogate, Lucie?

[Little lucie @ Simon]

Yes and at Doncaster. How did you guess Lucie

[Guest]

I think I've seen them on the list for Barry Potter and DJ Fairs. I may go sometime. Beat you to the smurfs!!

[Little lucie @ Simon]

You probably will, i'm very short sighted and all ways manage to walk past things Luckily Simon is very tall and can spot things for me from a mile away lucie

[Little lucie @ Simon]

Hey Guy's, we had our DJ fair in Harrogate today. I managed to get three Trudi smurfs which i had missing from my collection. I got the Brainy, painter and the Handglider smurf. All i am missing is the greedy smurf Lucie

[Brainy's Babe]
