For a few years there was a wave of smurfs coming out of Hongkong. Collectors easily recognize them because of the bad quality and incorrect paint jobs, however, for new collectors they were cause for a lot of confusion. Please click here for detailed pictures of the differences between the genuine smurfs and the HongKong fakes. |

Zodiac Sign Smurfs These are very different to the other because they are larger, come without the Schleich tag and look like obvious fakes. These are also sold in a box unlike the genuine ones from Schleich. I have included them here because they are based on the Schleich Zodiac Smurfs. Big thank you to Staci and Dyar for getting me these in Austalia |
