Many people have remarked that the paint on this set is the nicest the have seen on any Smurf figurine – EVER! 20547 Witch Smurfette in particular is getting lots of attention – the flames beneath her cauldron are particularly well done – they must be using some kind of automated process or airbrushing to have them look so nice. =-=-=-=-=-=-=- COMING SOON! =-=-=-=-=-=-=- I have been collecting Smurf-related articles and have always been frustrated that I get new articles faster than I can share them at my site’s archive: http://www.mushroomvillage.com/archives.htm AOL Click Here!
