Thanks for all the info and pics...I think Kwak items never were sold in Spain

[André]

Hi Joaquin,

I think they were only sold from the Quelle-catalogue. Because there are only Quelle-boxes for these parts.

Regarding the Ösi-list I don´t think the green tricycle was sold with Kwak, because these were never made after -86 and they started with the Kwak-parts 1990. Martin told me he had heard that the green tricycle was sold with another character. He didn´t remember which.

I think that many of these parts that suddenly showed in the catalogues from 2000 wasn´t sold with the smurfs. And this just shows that you should not believe everything that is written in the catalogues. I guess it is the same with many of the colour-versions that is not in older catalogues and suddenly shows in newer ones. Off course there could be Schleich-painters that have painted some smurfs different. But who will ever know this for sure? I don´t think this ever can be confirmed in any way. So I guess this thing can be discussed forever.

The interesting and important thing about the Kwak-parts is that they were produced and sold to private customers and are not fakes or homemade versions. These are for real.

Is that the one you mean?



I found the picture in an old Passion report from David who took the picture at Passion 2005.

It's the first time I have seen this one

[André]

That is a very nice item. I would love to have that one.

There is versions of the green tricycle in the catalogue IV. They are more darker green and also there is one with green wheels. But I guess you can change the wheels between the versions.

I don´t know how common it is but I have seen auktions on ebay where there were fakes made for the white bed and the candytops( schultüte). But these were light and shiny almost transperent in the colours. So there are certainly fakes of these parts aswell, but maybe not as common as the repainted smurfs.

I recieved a new Quellecatalogue released one year later and it has the same Kwak parts I already have shown. But there are other pictures and as you may have seen the farm on the earlier pictures has white windowframes. These I have never seen on any Kwak-farm. And on the pictures in this catalogue the windowframes are darkbrown as on my farm and on all the others I have seen. So the darkbrown windowframes are genuine ones.

Some of you may know me I'm not as smurf-active as I should have been the last years

Thanks for the photos Stefan, nice to see the items..I know your name from the front of Der Schumpf Katalog, I'd love to see your collection..It must be just smurfy.

Welcome to the forum

[André]

Thanks Stefan,

I have actually recieved a couple of missing boxes aswell. I think I almost have a complete set know.

/André

[André]

Here are the büro-set released for Kwak.

[André]

And this is the spiel-set with "smurfparts" released for Kwak.

I was right about the numbers on the pailings and the logposts. They should be numbered 1 to 16 if you have a complete set. These have never been assembled.

I now have 5 different boxes for Kwak. It is also one bedroomset and one gardenset.

[André]

I forgot Angelsmurf,

very welcome to the forum. It is nice to hear that you have such a great Kwak-collection.

I would love to see more pictures from your collection.

Ans thanks for the nice pictures of the posters.

to the forum, Stefan.

It's nice to see you on here and I agree, it would be great to see pictures of your collection.

Are you back into smurfing?

[Pitufo]

It seems we have here some collectors who have great kwaks items!!!

Welcome, Stefan!!!!!!!!!

[André]

The 2 boxes I don´t have are the rare ones.

I wrote the garden playset, but I mean the kitchen playset. This one includes the green stove and the darkgreen furniture.

The other one is the bedroomset, which includes the white bed, white vanitytable and the purple rockingchair.

I have all these "kwakversions" of the smurfaccessories, but I miss the boxes.

Actually I have never seen them. Yet.

Stefan,

so glad that you joined our board. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Do you know, if the new DSK is still in the making?

[angelsmurf]

It's me to be glad, thanks.

I don't know for sure if the making of a new Schlumpf Katalog or a KMS-Katalog is planned or ongoing, I suppose IMPS hesitates to give a license.

I haven't met nor have contact to Frank Oswald for a few years, but I'm still in contact with Bernd Maier.

To lend figurines for photoshoots would makes crazy theese days, I have lots of unsorted figurines cause I was too lazy and / or too busy for a few years to pay enough attention and to bring the new ones in my collection in order and update my recordings.

On the other hand I would like to see a new catalogue with lots of new variations...

keep on smurfin'

[André]

I would also love a new catalogue, angelsmurf.

Let´s hope for one soon.

But it seems we may have to wait awhile then???

Hi guys!

Concerning buildings, please note that there are some other buildings which are mentioned "Smurf items" in auctions, while they are not!

E.g. the so-called "Tierfamilie" (= animal family)and the "Märchenland" (=fairy tale) houses.

Thanks for posting, Erik.

[Lia]

That`s a useful thread !!
I thought for some moments that I found the answer where my fake ? smurfhouses came from, but they are different from the Tierfamilie house.
I still wonder what mine are?

Thanks for posting Dom!
