Smurf Colorforms

Here's something else I had as a kid: Smurf Colorforms.





(Both pictures courtesy of bluebuddies.com.)

I was big into the Smurfs. Stuffed Smurf dolls, Smurf food tray, both of which my mom won in Seaside, Smurf Colecovision game (which was pretty lame but I still have the theme song stuck in my head to this day), even a Smurf sleeping bag.

I wouldn't buy used Colorforms though, knowing how I would lick the backs of them to stick them on the board. Ew.

No, I'm not siding with Mr. Pink and suggesting that you never leave a tip for your waiter or waitress, I'm talking about one of the games from my childhood by Ideal:



I remember it would descend into Lord of the Flies chaos at the end - we would get tired of the game and throw the little discs at each other.
