    So how did your love of smurfs start? It started in germany when she was a child. Smurfs were a big deal there well before they came to the states. Her brother was using a smurf as a chew toy and she didn' t like it so she grabbed it and hid it in her room. After that she had to save every smurf she found. Now it is a hobby but she really enjoys cataloging them.    She was in highschool with my wife. I inherited her family theough mariage.    The snorks was America'sattempt to cash in on the smurf craze. "They are the smurf cousins that nobody talks about"

      Smurfs were a big deal there well before they came to the states.

      What other cartoons were being aired those days on German TV? Why does she think it became so popular? How do people react when they see her collection?
