I've been collecting these and they're so much fun! They're little square cards with holographic pictures on them which are a devil to photograph! I haven't managed any good pics yet. Kids, young and old
, will love them. The seller's really nice too. I've now got all but one card which is a tad frustrating!
I can also say that I've got the bellringer smurf as that is one of the pictures!
I shall try to get some decent photos.

I gave lots of my doubles away to some of my smurfy friends at the last fair in Brussels. I love those cards.
I know we still have some at home lying around so I'll have a look to see if there's an S6 in with them Hilary.
I'm still missing one of them but I can't remember which one it is at the moment...

Steve - no problem. PM me you address and I'll get some in the post on Monday or Tuesday.
Tojo - thank you!! That would be great if you have it. I've decided not to buy any more as I could spend a fortune and not find the one card that I need.
I'm therefore relying on trades.
Al - They are a set of collectable cards from Topps/Merlin. I think they were only released in Germany as I haven't yet seen them in any other language and they're dated 2006. Here's an example:
This card is T8:
Move it slightly and a different picture appears:
The trick to taking pics of them is don't use your flash!

They were available in Germany a year ago (perhaps other countries too?). The packaging came in 3 designs (papa, smurfette, smurf) & each packet included a checklist you could use to cross off which cards you had & (if I remember rightly) 5 cards. There are different varieties of them. Most have a picture which changes when you move the card. On some the design gets smaller / larger when the card is moved & on others the middle is seethrough until the card is moved & then a picture appears.
I haven't been able to work out what the S, T & N prefixes are supposed to mean
I think there are about 65 cards in total. I'm working from memory here as my Flik Pix are at home & I'm at work right now.

You're absolutely right Tojo except that there are 69 cards.
I don't know what the prefixes mean either.

They look very cute. Until this post I hadn't heard of them much less seen any of the cards, and it was very interesting to read about them.
Somehow I ended up with some of the packaging they came in and always thought that they belong to stickers like the Merlin and Panini stickers
Thanks for posting this Hilary and Tojo

Sorry Hilary, I've had a look & we haven't got a spare S6 I'm afraid. If one turns up I'll let you know though as there may be more lying around here somewhere.
I'm looking for an S2 to complete my collection so if anyone finds one could they please let me know

I've got a spare S2 Tojo. PM your address and I'll pop it in the post.
Thanks for looking for that S6 for me.
