ABBA was also awarded the Silver Hammer Smurf in 1980 and 1982 as the most popular pop group then. Agnetha Fältskog, one of the members, got the Bronze one in 1980. ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

Madonna's Golden Hammer Smurf Award (Goldener Hammerschlumpf) - Film Star of the Year, 1985. I had forgotten to mention that Roger Moore received his for the same reason.
According to Dirk Bliesener, a German Smurf collector, these Smurfs are "awards that were given out by the German Pop/Rock/Music-magazine called "Pop Rocky" sometime in the early 80's. The readers got to vote for their favorite celebrities once a year. The Smurfs came in gold, silver, bronze and black. They are made of a heavy rubber material on a wood base. It is said that over 100 celebrities already received an award like this. Of course these "statues" were NEVER available to the public. I personally think the BLACK one is the hardest one to find, since hardly any of those were ever awarded." ![[Happy Smurf]](graemlins/Happy_Smurf.gif)

I love seeing all of the famous people with the Smurf Pop Rocky Statues!!! Keep them coming!
Pop Rocky: February 17, 1982
Here's a picture of the German magazine Pop Rocky. This magazine is from February 1982. It features Kim Wilde holding her "Pop Rocky" on the cover.
Apparently, Kim Wilde was very popular with the fans that voted for her in the magazine! She was awarded many Smurf Pop Rocky Statues over the years.
1981 - 'Golden Hammer-Schlumpf' (Golden Hammer-Smurf) for best female singer
1982 - 'Golden Hammer-Schlumpf' for best female singer
1983 - 'Silver Hammer-Schlumpf' for second best female singer
1984 - 'Bronzener Hammer-Schlumpf' for third best female singer

I found this little guy at a thrift store in Nashville. There was no name or label on it except a handmade label that said "Happy Smurf" and I was wondering if anyone could give me any more information.

Hello, Nashville, welcome!
As you must have seen, some pictures above show that not all Pop Rocky Hammer Smurf have any labels with a winner's name, so I think you're very lucky to have found this Golden one!
Maybe the handmade sign with the name "Happy Smurf" have been put a former owner.

Hi Novicesmurf,
The Pop Rocky Smurf awards are valuable. Smurf collectors love them. And depending on the popularity of the artist awarded on the plaque, they can be very valuable to the fans of those artists. You don't see the Smurf Pop Rocky's come up for auction very often so sometimes you can get a bidding war which will rise the price even more. I remember the Madonna Pop Rocky did really well at auction a few years back.

The Pop Rocky statues are valuable and rare.
Pop Rocky magazine was published in the German language. In countries where the magazine was not available, there is probably less knowledge of the Pop Rocky award.
The Pop Rocky Smurfs are sought-after by people who remember Pop Rocky magazine fondly, people who are fans of a particular recording artist, and by Smurf fans. So you have wide appeal for the Smurf statues.
This was a fan-based award and many people are excited to have both a special Smurf collectible and an award with their the name of their favorite artist.
Of course, a Smurf statue is a Smurf statue so it has intrinsic value as a Smurf collectible as well.
