| | | The Smurfs Ultimate Collection 1 Review - Part 1 | 2011-09-08 08:51:55 | | | | A few days ago I acquired "The Smurfs Ultimate Collection 1" on DVD. If you don't know what a Smurf is, head on over to IMDB.
This is a region 4 DVD release from Magna Home Entertainment, exclusive to Australia and New Zealand, so if you're not in one of those countries, you will want to begin your search online for this set. Shipping is usually reasonably priced, and unlike purchasing items from the US, most companies will be willing to ship overseas. It is quite common for prices to be quoted inclusive of GST (the local sales tax in both countries), so you should expect a discount on overseas sales.
