Yes. The farmhouse was fun to put together. Unlike the Windmill that frustrated me. And the Farmhouse looks great. When I first got it, I was surprised that it had to be put together. As I expected it to be already together (the walls connected to a floor) in the box.

Well the houses seem very common throughout the David Jones stores here and they haven't been out of them since they were first in. And like I said, if David Jones are placing in another order for September, they'll get more houses. Goodluck.

I remember that discussion before. Maybe it was on the old forums. When questions were asked about why they didn't make larger Gargamels in proportion to smurfs and why they haven't made different characters that have appeared in the cartoons. I can't remember why that was. I think it had something to do with marketing for the audience of today that don't know smurf history and didn't grow up with the cartoon. So making characters that aren't smurfs, they figure wouldn't sell as well with the general public.?? I think. But it would be great to have a large Gargamel pvc. I have seen a large Gargamel soft toy on American eday before. He would be great to have.

Brad.
