I checked the catalogues between 2000 and 2010 and Schleich has not released anything new for the smurfs except the new normals every year. So let´s hope this could be a start of a new era of Schleich-smurfs. And not just a new way to sell them in US instead of loose smurfs. ???
With the new movie I think this is the best time in many years for us hoping for new items from Schleich. So let´s hope for at least a few new items and maybe they bring a few old molds back in production???
It would be a shame if Schleich who has produced smurfs for so many years would not take this opportunity to sell new items?? But as always nowadays it is only the money that counts, so they must sell otherwise they will probably be removed very fast again?
I am with you in that I hope they will be releasing new supers or even playsets, but I don't think so.
Americans are always hunting for bargains and I think this is Schleich's way of starting to sell smurfs in America again...and maybe of getting rid of some left over smurfs, so I wouldn't be surprised if they release some "older" smurfs in those sets.
I also still expect to find the Indian smurfs in those sets, and would love that as I'd hope to get more of the new markings this way. I think that's the thing I am most excited about...to hopefully get more smurfs with the new markings
Another thing I'd be interested in finding out is if all the smurfs in the boxes will have the same markings or if they just put them in there randomnly (I'd expect the latter..but obviously we'll have to wait and compare notes on that)
The price indicates it'll be only normal smurfs in the boxes...but I've been wrong before
Where did you see the side of the box, Andre? I haven't checked the site out today but wasn't able to see a picture of the box yesterday
