This "Smurf Trapeze" hails from 1981, when it was dreamed up by Helm Toys and licensed by Peyo, the creator of the Smurfs, at the height of their popularity. But who doesn't still want to make a Smurf do a flip at the push of a button? The earnest little blue guy clings onto the bar, and with a simple press, performs a gymnastic feat: pure Smurf-joy. It's a feel-good collectible for a new generation of Smurf fans. Sure, when it comes to the Smurfs, there's no going back: we've got Rihanna voicing Smurfette these days. But when it comes to adorable merchandise, who wouldn't want to go back to the glory days?
