HELLO, SMURFERS!!
SOMEONE CAN HELP ME WITH A DOBT I HAVE ABOUT THESE ERTL CARS MADE IN USA?
TODAY I´VE RECEIVED FIVE OF THESE WITH THE SMURF DRIVER LOOKING BEHIND, IN AN INVERTED POSITION THAN THE USUAL I´VE ALWAYS SEEN BEFORE.
IT´S A MISTAKE OF ERTL?
OR JUST A TRICK OF THE SELLER?
PLEASE,IF YOU KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT THAT,LET ME KNOW.
THANKS TO EVERYBODY

HI Lobo, a mystery to me too I am afraid.

I have just checked mine and they seem to be quite firmly stuck in place so I really don't know. I can't really imagine they would have been sold like this as I doubt they would have passed a quality check so maybe they have been taken out and turned around at some point in the past but without seeing them closely, it is very hard to tell.

THANKS FOR YOUR ANSWERS!!
ANYWAY, I THINK I WILL TRY THE OPTION OF A MISTAKE BECAUSE EVERY CAR IS PERFECT EXCEPT THIS ANOMALITY.
THIS WAY THESE CARS ARE A VARIANT and i will keep them in my collection.
I don´t have space for so many smurfs!!
BUT I WILL KEEP COLLECTING...

hi!

I've also not seen this before, and from what I read above, I would
think these may be errors, since there is a group of them and maybe the seller got them all at once.

I do know there are variations of the drivers, different smurfettes
as I have at least three types.

I think I posted them here once a while ago somewhere?

so Lobo its great that you found something like these! very unusual!
