Smarties - Smartie Designs
UK Tubes  1  2  3  4  5
Did you think that a Smartie is just a Smartie and that they never change? Well, you'd be wrong if you did! Take a look at this lot. There are quite a few variations with colours and print designs. Even the ingredients have changed! There are some real suprises on this page.
Gruesome Greenie (1992 - 1993)
Kidnapped blue (1994 - 1995)
Zapping Orange (1993 - 1994)

smarties SECRETS - (1997 - 1998)
These are a real favourite. They didn't come in tubes, but in foil bags with mini comics. 8 colours, 5 of them with designs. 12 different designs...and a huge, speckled, white chocolate, fruit flavoured Smartie.

Look at these colours...and YES. That is a smarties football !!! It is not shaped like a smartie...it is actually like a miniature football and could be found in the tubes!
DINOSAUR EGGS
(2000 - 2001)  Not so prehistoric!
CANADIAN SMARTIES

Standard Colours  (1988 - 2006)
Smarties in my collection...from 1986! Forget the people selling 'rare' blue Smarties on Ebay. Here is a real light brown Smartie. Light brown Smarties were replaced by blue in 1988.

Standard Colours  (2006 - 2007)
Standard Colours  (2008 - ????)
BLUE IS BACK!!! (again)
Blue first arrived when in 1988 and re-appeared in 1989, replacing light brown. However, when the artificial colours were removed in 2006, blue vanished and light brown returned in the place of dark brown. Now blue is back (in a more pleasant shade) and dark brown is also back (though with no fanfare).
