Most of us are familiar with
vintage PEZ dispensers,
especially those found on licensed PEZ merchandise.
Recently, we discovered some fantastic new
PEZ products featuring familiar characters like the vintage PEZ
bunny, pony, and duck, but also a brand-new
pink panda bear lounging in a swim ring.
Since this adorable character was completely new to us,
we were instantly excited and eager to learn more.
We’re thrilled to introduce you to the
Natsu Panda.

We immediately fell in love with the design:
a cute pink panda bear relaxing comfortably
in a bright yellow swim ring,
holding a refreshing cold drink,

You might be wondering:

Never heard of it before?

That’s right!
Until now, even we hadn’t come across

But where’s the Natsu Panda PEZ dispenser?
With such an incredible collaboration
and campaign underway,
we all can’t help but wonder:
when will the official Natsu PEZ dispenser be released?
Since there’s already a PEZ panda mold,
creating a Natsu Panda dispenser shouldn’t
be too difficult.

We believe some key players should definitely
consider making this happen, with 300 stores involved,
the dispenser would be quickly snapped up! 😉

Because we love the design so much,
we couldn’t resist playing around with the
current PEZ panda dispenser in Photoshop.
We’ve edited it to imagine what a Natsu Panda dispenser
could look like, and if this promotion is repeated
next summer, hopefully,
it will become a reality.
Where there’s a will, there’s a way!
