Hi Smurfs,
My Mum bought me Smurfs in the 70's and I think I have a couple of rare ones.
This one looks similar to the Australian Football ones on this site (20150) but there are no pictures of one with black top,shorts and boots with yellow stripes. I can't find any reference to this anywhere on the internet.

Has anyone here seen or heard of other colours?

Your smurf must be very rare! According to smurfs.com, there are two australian football smurfs, and neither of them have those black and white colors. ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

I also noticed a 'T' on the top and presume it is for 'Tigers'.

HELP! I would like to sell my Australian Rules Smurf in Black and Yellow (Tigers) colours but don't know how much to ask for one that is so rare nobody seems to have heard of it. Any Suggestions? He is not brand new and slightly scuffed as he has been in my draws for over 30 years.

So, we can see that it is made by Schleich, the official company, and it was made in 1980. In spite of the wear (such as the white spot on his nose) I would probably price it at about 25 or 30 dollars. I found on this website, BBS, that "Sports Smurfs (like the Footballer and Rugby Smurfs) with the different team color uniforms are also very sought after and can fetch a high price." You could price it at a much higher price if you want. After all, your smurf is almost impossible to find! But you should make sure you really want to sell it.

You too! And if you are selling your smurf, what website are you selling it on? Some BBS members will probably want to buy it from you!

Oh, I wasn't sure if you still got on here. It's smurfy to you back! I'm sorry to read that you didn't sell them, though. Of course, if I were you, I probably wouldn't sell it. It's so cute, and one of a kind! ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
