I wanted to host a contest with an extra-special prize for all you die-hard Smurfers who have faithfully followed here to our new forums!!
The prize will be a desirable piece - 20155 Traffic with a paint error!
20155 Traffic is especially valuable to US collectors, because he is a "Europe-only" piece - never marketed in the US!
What's more, this is a rare paint error! His traffic sign is supposed to be the same on both sides - this one is printed normal on one side, and 120 degrees out of alignment on the other side. On one side it looks as above, but on the other side the people's heads are towards his hands!! This is a different and desirable paint error. We sell him for $30 when there is no error, I'd certainly consider the error a little more valuable! small rub on one ear, but the rub is on the back - the error that you want to display is on his mint side!
Everyone may play - only registered and logged in members may win! Another perk of registering!!!
PVCBlue (Gary) will run the contest. He will post a follow-up here soon...

Calvin: You know what I've noticed, Hobbes? Things don't bug you much if you don't think about them. So from now on, I simply won't think about anything I don't like, and I'll be happy all the time!
Hobbes: Don't you think that's a pretty silly and irresponsible way to live?
Calvin: What a pretty afternoon...
