Do you have any smurfs you will be searching for during 2014?

Last year I tried to get the rugbysmurfs, UK strikers and bundesligasoccersmurfs.

I got all the UK strikers, almost all rugbysmurfs but did not buy any bundesliga. Yet!!

This year I would love to find the last missing Minimodels I do not have. At least the marked ones.

Here are the marked Minimodels I have. Lia, which are the ones missing on the Picture?

Normal, Angry, Bookworm, Judo??? Can you take a Picture of the ones I still need.

Which smurfs will all of you look for next year?

@André: I am sure you know Dyar's site about Minimodels? I have found some smurfs with markings you are still missing (clown, chef,...).


I will try to get closer to complete my super and my christmas smurf collection. This means, I'll need the Trapeze smurf, smurfette with shopping cart, the smurf riding the christmas candy stick, the male christmas praying smurf and Jokey with Gargamel box. I think at least the first three of them are a good goal for 2014.

But I am sure I will find a lot of other nice smurfs as well - without having specific wishes at the moment. Except for some smurfs I am always looking for, e.g. the orange Dupuis Union versions of Papa and Smurfette.

[André]

I also want the orange Dupuissmurfs Simon.

There is a list in another thread here where I found Lias list of all Minimodels. A lot more marked ones then I remembered, so it will be really hard finding all. I hope I will be able to get a few more at least.

[Lia]

André, I don`t have the normal/angry, but I made a picture of the marked ones, you need. ( The fisherman is on it because it has the complete rod) I know why you are interested in the marked minimodels, but the nicest minimodels are the unmarked babies

[Lia]

and the clown!

[Arno]

I think I also will concentrate on spanish smurfs in a large way : CNT, spanish fakes, eura spain, minimodels, from Mexico... thanks to Blue cavern, I discovered new goals !
And of course I will go on getting new variations and paint errors of every mold...

Thanks Lia,

I would really love to get the marked Chef and Clown to compare with the Hering ones.

Maybe I already managed to get the Judo Minimodels. That is a good start, right.

Off course I also love the unmarked Minimodels and I guess I can only Dream of getting the babies. Almost like a Dream would be to get the CNT supers in boxes.

Here are the unmarked Minimodels and the Hering ones made by Minimodels I have. Unmarked heringmolds or blocked Hering ones, but made by Minimodels. I will try to get more of them also.

There is also one Heringsmurf I would love to get from Brazil. I do not yet have the Hiker made by Hering. Only the one made by Minimodels with blocked marking.

I love the CNTs to Arno.

And only have a few of them yet.

I hope you find many nice ones to show here on the forum.

I want to be surprised by Schleich. Maybe a playset for the pirates.

[Lia]

The hiker is the most common Hering André, you surely will find it on Ebay!!

[Arno]

not that I would want to break a secret, but... you mean ebay.com ? it's hard to find some sites where hering et minimodels are to sell.

[Lia]

I saw that hiker ( and the candle) at least 4 times on Ebay Germany . Other marked Herings are almost impossible to find

[Arno]

almost impossible ?! But you have so many of them
and André also could find some.
I will find the way, even if I don't know anybody living in South America, that would have been helpful...
I have time.

[Lia]

This sounds crazy, but I found most Herings in Holland, from a Dutch seller who worked in Brazil:-)))

[Arno]

Very practic indeed !
Finally, I must look for a brasilian community in France, you are right !

[André]

That is a perfect way Lia.

As you say the Heringsmurfs are very hard to find. I have been lucky to be able to buy a few lots directly from Brazil. Heringsmurfs in very good condition are extremly hard to find, most are in played condition.

And it seems the Heringsmurfs with blocked markings sold on Ebay many times are the ones made by Minimodels. Those are of course also very nice to have but the ones from Brazil are a lot harder to find. Probably because Brazil was a very closed country when the smurfs were made and sold there, so not many brazilian Heringsmurfs have found their way to other countries.

I only have 13 of the Heringsmurfs with Heringmarking, and 9 of them with blocked marking but still from Brazil. The only one I do not have from Brazil is the Hiker. So actually I miss 10 of them with Heringmarkings. But the main goal now is to get all 23 in softer material from Brazil.

I hope I can find a big lot with a complete Hiker from Brazil. Sometimes they miss the flower. Buying only one smurf directly from Brazil is to expensive,:banghead: so if possible it is always better to buy lots. That goes from all countries I guess.

[André]

Lia,

is it correct that only 4 of the minimodelssmurfs have accessories that is not part of the mold? All have the same red material?

Smurfette Tennis- red raquet.
Tennis Smurf- red raquet.
Angler- red trod.
And Secretary- red pen.

[Lia]

yes, that seems correct André! I can`t think of any others.

[André]

Got to a good start. Already managed to get the Judo and Bookworm with MM-markings. And 2 smurfettes without markings I did not have before.
