A brief overview of this year's PEZ highlights.
PEZ kicked off the year with a burst of colour in the form of the Trolls.
The second animated film featuring the merry mythical creatures
is set to hit the big screen in late March.
As with the first film, the focus is on vibrant colours and lots of music.

Daphne,
Velma,
Shaggy
and Great Dane Scooby-Doo,
has been around since the late 1960s.
Now a new animated film is set to be released in cinemas this May
in virtually exactly the same illustrative style as the series.

will appear alongside a new Minions character as PEZ dispensers.
The new PEZ collection will feature the entire upper body of the
yellow Minions atop the dispensers - overalls included!
And to top it all off, a whole new flavour of candy will be added
especially for the Minions range: you guessed it, banana!
Another PEZ highlight will also be coming to stores in early summer:
Europe's first PEZ Harry Potter range!
The collection featuring
trainee wizard
Harry and his friends
Hermione
and Ron
will be chibi style:
originating from Japan, chibi is a greatly simplified version of a caricature.
Here the emphasis is on childlike elements.
A black PEZ dispenser stem featuring a white logo provides a striking contrast and carries some of the story's mystery and suspense over to the three characters.

is exciting, funny and to some extent educational -
because it shows the importance of being friendly and helpful.
The three cats
Lampo,
Milady and Meatball
will be available as PEZ dispensers.
And because people all over the world love cats,
not only fans of the series are expected to be delighted.
The animated series
Spirit
is primarily aimed at girls from the age of six and is about a love of horses,
friendship and shared adventures.
Twelve-year-old Lucky finds fulfilment after moving from the big city to the countryside,

As of autumn,
Lucky
and Spirit,
along with the two horses Boomerang and
- from 2021 - Chica Linda will be available in stores as PEZ dispensers.
The second PEZ edition of
L.O.L. Surprise
is also set to be released this autumn.
The little L.O.L. Surprise dolls are sold as hidden surprise balls.
Much to the thrill of collectors, some of the characters
appear frequently, some less frequently, while others are rare finds.
In keeping with the element of surprise, PEZ has hidden the dispenser heads inside a turquoise (in the second edition) box.
Out of a total of nine different dispensers, three have been assigned to each frequency category - guaranteeing a whole new wave of frenzy amongst collectors.
