About arne
My story
Hello smurf collectors and fans,
let me tell you little more about myself.
My name is Arne and I was born on October 23rd, 1991,
exactly 33 years after the Smurfs made their first appearance in the Spirou magazine in 1958.
I share my birthday with the smurfs, isn't that great?
As a kid, I've always loved and collected figurines: Disney, Tintin,...
I had hundreds of them!
And then one day, I discovered there were more smurfs than the few I already had in my letter cases on my bedroom walls!
In 2013, I was elected "Belgian Smurf Ambassador" during the launch of the 2nd Smurfs movie.
It's been over 25 years I'm collecting smurf figurines and statues now, and every day I keep looking for new items. I lost count of what I have already years ago 😉
My passion for the smurfs took "Arne's Blue Heaven" to a whole new level:
It's no longer about just sharing my collection, but also helping other collectors finding their missing items and sharing the passion for our little blue friends!
It's Arne's Blue Heavens' primary mission:
How can I smurf you?
