Hello, my name is Graham, and i come from Liverpool in the UK ! I used to collect smurfs when i was a child but that was a long time ago ! I came across smurfs again back in 2005, i was browsing E-Bay, and thought i'd type smurf in the search bar to see what happened and there were hundreds of them ! I could not believe it, the smurfs were still going strong !

I mostly collect the figures themselves, but smurfs are connected to almost everything, and you can find thousands of items with smurfs associated with them ! I leave this to other people to collect ! I just want the smurfs ! :-)  It is quite frightening how many smurfs that are out there to collect, one smurf can have many variations, some just a colour variation, and some with markings from different countries, such as Sri Lanka, Portugal, Macau, Hong Kong, China, and Germany ! Then there are other smurfs too from places like Spain, Poland, Mexico, Brazil ! Argentina even gets in on the smurf act with minimodels ! But the normal smurfs will always be my favourite ! What are my favourite smurfs ? Definately my Astro and my footballers, just lately, i have been collecting spanish smurfs  which i like alot too,  but they all have individual identities which makes them unique, which makes them all great to collect ! It is very hard to choose a favourite ! I have recently finished completing my collection of Bundesliga football smurfs, you can see them
here

Enjoy looking at my site !
