Hi All; I just made my rounds of 1 Walmart Target and toys are us. Nothing new at walmart and toys are us. However the other day I tried to seek the box out and the girl took it. It was back on the shelf again. I guess it could be a new one. Anyway in the box were three more Brainy's and Jokeys. So I guess they restocked it. I got another of each of those there was only 1 of each the other day. Well I guess I goofed up again I got to thinking about my last sentence and went and check for sure I had two Jokeys already. You should try sneaking in the house with a bag of plush Smurfs. I got caught.

[SMURFSTEROCKS]

I went to Target today and got me some Smurfs. I think these are the
new ones, but I didn't find the ones that came out before these. I also
went to Toys-R-Us but they did not have anything new there so I got
me an extra Smurfette Car and Smurf Mighty Muggs. Yay!!

[bwalters]

That is so cool Smurfsterocks. Everything in those pics is new except the car and the ugly thing in the middle, BTW I have two of them. . One thing that always has puzzled me about it. On the box it says 6 and up, and has no small parts. All the others that do have small parts say 4 and up. I have often wondered if they ment 6 months and up, and just mislabled the box.

OMG, You had me laughing at the end of that sentence. That was funny.
Yeah, I don't know why it says "Ages 6+". There's no harm to a child if he
got a hold of it.

[bwalters]

I have to go to all my stores tomorrow. Not sure if I will get them if they are there, my paycheck will only be half a paycheck this payday, and I now have to pay for my gas for my car which I will get reimbursed for at the end of the month. Next payday will be hugh though. Six weeks of pay.

[Ritter_Schlumpfenherz]

Oh weeee. So glad that you managed to find them, Smurfsterocks.

FYI - I was on the Target Stores website today, they list the new Windmill playset for sale at 29.99, but it is ONLY available online, NOT in stores!!

[Smurfysmurf]

Great buys and news Smurfsterocks

Not sure when I get to go to Target again, but I checked the website as well and it looks the painter's house is in the stores

[Gerda]

well that sucks that you can't get the windmill in the stores. I see mine for my area search are saying they are in the stores so I may have to go and have a look.


ps.. just checked the toys r us site and there you can order the theme packs. all except the sports one which I thought was the best.

[PVCBlue]

I ordered the Windmill from Target then ordered the 3 theme packs from Toys-R-Us!! YEA!! Thanks Gerda!!

I went to one Target and even though it was pretty sold out on everything smurfy, they didn't have the new items out yet...despite what the website said

To everybody who I am getting those for...I'll check again next weekend..won't have time during the week because of work

[SMURFSTEROCKS]

Hmm... I thought everyone already had these. I've been busy with my
other collections. I am still missing the 6 other Smurf figures that came
out before these. I hope I get to find them and I didn't lose out.

[bwalters]

Hi All; Smurfsterocks they are the third wave of playsets. Wow I posted eairler in this thread that they had kind of changed the material a little. Now they have really done it. Smurfsterocks and Bradley made me go to Target today at lunch. Bradley wanted me to pic up a couple of the benies. First they have totally rearanged a few things so it took a min to find them. They had a entirely new box of the plush Smurfs. They were made in the style of the old ones. Papa, Smurfette, Vanity and normal but the material is more of a terry cloth for the body. The hat and legs look the same as the rest. Here is a few pic's of what I got.



P.S. Getting those three pic's was a big fight. I finally broke down and gave Max one of the older one's that I had several of them.

[SMURFSTEROCKS]

Thanks bwalters, I knew they were the 3rd wave.

OMG, those beanies got a whole new make over. I really don't like those.
They look like they been washed over and over. LOL!

[bwalters]

I don't really like the looks of them either. You can barely see the eyes. The tags are even a little diffrent. The Jokey on says its Jokey the new ones don't say anything and are two separate stips of cardboard. The old one's also have two pieces of cardboard but one of them is like a book and opens, and tells about the Smurf.

[Smurfysmurf]

That's very odd, Bill....Can you do me a favor?

What exactly is written on the labels of the newer smurfs? It looks to me they might come from a different company...why else attach a different label to them and make them out of a completely different material?

Smurfsterocks,
Have you checked Walmart for the second set of the play alongs? Around here they are still available there. If you can't find them, give me a holler as I should be able to get them for you.

[bwalters]

Hi Moey; The very back of both cards is exactly the same. They have moved the name to the front only, and there is no mention about the character like there is in the older ones. Here are some more pic's luckly Max was outside when I took them.
