What do you guys think
The movie is still to be released as well as the official toys, yet we have fakes available already.

What is so shocking about faking it to make a fast buck isn't that what the world is usually made of.



Thanks for posting Smurfette with white eyebrows! :)

I actually like those as they aren't exact copies of Schleich smurfs for a change.

Dont get me wronge. A smurf is a smurf is a smurf. lol

I agree with the fact that they are not the exact as schleich, so does this make them a fake or not? And besides i will still get them. I was just shocked that they are available even before the ''official'' sellers.

If they aren't officially licensed, they are fake (at least in my book they are) :D

I guess, I wasn't so shocked as we've seen this before. Remember how the paint of the party smurfs from Schleich was hardly dry when the fake party smurfs with the fake Schleich tabs showed up on ebay :banghead:

I don't have them on my website yet, but I found them on Dyar's.

Scroll to the bottom of the page for the fake party smurfs :D

Fakers are selling the full sets of the Indian, Halloween and Party smurfs with the Schleich tag. When you look carefully you see they are different but you can only see the difference if you know a bit about Schleich smurfs. I have seen too many collectors buy them thinking they are getting a deal (they sell for around $10.00 a set) when in fact all they are getting is a fake set :x

Oh My Gosh! I never new there were so many of these fakes comming out from china now. :( Expecialy if you dont relise what your getting. As well as faked tags.:???:

Im so glad I got all them from kittys cavern befor hand.

If they were going to make some good fakes like that why cant they make ones of the xmas proto types, at least that would be the closest thing I could get to having them. :-D 8-) 8-)

Smurfy regards
