Smurfs News

The best smurfy news we’ve had in the past couple of weeks is that the Smurf Movie is pencilled in for November 2008!  Apparently the summer success of the Transformers movie has convinced producers to bring back various television cartoon characters of the past!

Talking of Smurf Movies, we’ve managed to get hold of copies of the original Smurf Movie programme, “The Smurfs and the Magic Flute”, dating back to 1983!  Check out our books section for this rare piece of smurf memorabilia.

And for die-hard collectors of all-things smurf-like but not necessarily smurfy, we’ve found an original advert about Empire Gnomes.  The Gnome Family and Lucky Little Leprechauns were made by Empire in the late 1970s and early 1980s and appear very much inspired by the Smurfs.

If Empire Gnomes are of interest to you then we would recommend checking out this Empire Gnome My Space page.
