Nice smurfs Attom, cool drummers and I love that variation of the spy smurf. :D

The fakes that you show, do they have some sort of a fabric covering them. They look really familiar. I am not sure if someone was even asking me about them very recently. :scratchinghead:

Pekkelien, I've just seen your eBay listing, and the Dupuis smurfs you offer are the Dupuis Union Smurfs. These are not the first Smurfs ever (that are the Dupuis Smurfs (no Union), which have a different pose, two hands similar, bigger feet, and are way better made than the rather ugly Dupuis Union Smurfs). The Dupuis Union Smurfs are from the early seventies and are made after the Schleich molds. I hope you don't mind me correcting you, it doesn't change their rarity or value (certainly outside of Belgium).

Attom, I've just bought the spy with the completely red cape myself (for a full Euro), so I guess I know how you feel know: excited :woohoo:

I think you can see pictures of the Dupuis Smurfs on Saussard's website (on thsame page that he has pictures of the 15 cm and the 30 cm Dupuis Smurfs). www.saussard.be, I think it is...

HI FRam!!


it must be raining red spymsurfs!! :) it took me ages to find one..and I'm so happy you got one too!! and for so cheap!! wow!!


and Pekkelien ..I think i bid on all of your stuff on page 5 of the listings!!

hehehe can't wait for smurfette :cheers:

I like the odd rough look of the dupuis unions..they are almost like bad fakes!

I have a real dupuis black one..the small one.. I got by accident on a cheap lot..I thought it was a fake..but its a dupuis..

and I also saw Saussard win those Dupuis small ones he got!
he out bid me on those..! and they were nice..
at the time I was too dumb to know they were so rare!!
hehehehe :)

Hi Attom

Nice smurfs from Christine. I had those in watching and was going to bid until i saw your name as the winning bidder. There is usually so many other smurfs I want to purchase that I can still do this and not feel like I have nothing else to bid on which is good I think.

Those fuzzy wuzzy smurfs are weird. I haven't seen those before either...I have now though.

Good luck to both Attom and Sven with those auctions

:D :D :D
