| Rugby Union Worldcup Variations |
| These were released in the early 80s in England and also South Africa, probably to celebrate the Rugby Union World Cup. They are in the team colors of the teams playing the worldcup back then. While English collectors remember them sold individually as figures, we have now more and more evidence that they were sold in BP bags in South Africa. These are among the most popular rare smurfs, and one should always be careful of fake repaints because of the high amount of money they sell for. They also should always be come on the grassy base with the W. Germany markings, although it is left to the collector to decide if a genuine painted Rugby smurf on a HK base is a fake or not. The smurf wasn't changed, but put on the incorrect base so I personally still consider them genuine even if slightly less valuable than those on the correct W. Germany marked base. |
