50 years old Smurfs

Wow... are they really that old? They are celebrating the 50th birthday this year! How do I know? I googled it and found their website! www.smurf.com/home-en has all details of them... Hm... I wonder what kind of cake the Cook Smurf will bake and what the Grouchy will say about it! haahaa... the image is from their website!
