Adventure Awaits: Introducing the New Moana PEZ Dispensers for 2024 Moana, Hei-Hei and Maui

Moana is a brave girl who sets sail 
on a daring mission to save her people. 
On her journey, she meets the 
once-mighty demigod Maui. T
ogether, they cross the sea on an adventure 
full of fun and action, 
encountering gigantic sea creatures,
 breathtaking underworlds,
 and seemingly hopeless situations. 
This is the plot of the Disney film that delighted 
hearts around the world in 2016.
In 2020, PEZ introduced Moana to the market for 
the first time as part of the Disney PEZ Princess range,
 and she quickly became a favorite in our collections.

Now, the range has been expanded, and 
Moana
is returning! 
The new Moana PEZ range (USA) 
will be released shortly, 
featuring two new dispensers alongside Moana.

Maui will finally be available as a PEZ dispenser,
 and Hei-Hei will be also on board.

These dispensers will come in a blister pack 
or a delightful gift twin pack. 
We are excited about the new dispensers, 
as they bring a touch of summer flair to our collections.
Happy Collecting!

The ❤️ of PEZ!

Summer PEZ Surprises! And all what we can expect...

The days of heated debates over the use of the
ball mold for special editions of PEZ are over.

By this year, PEZ has won over even its last 
critics with an array of fantastic special editions.

With the countless great dispensers that PEZ 
has served us to date, things are far from over.
Even though a lot is still very secret, 
the rumor mill is bubbling and we have 
summarized what we can expect for the
 next few months 
as online only dispensers here for you.

Pretty soon, as previously 
announced, a dispenser for the
 Independence Day 
on July 4th will be released. 
And PEZ will come up with something
 really great!
This dispenser will only be available
 online and only in the USA.
This could be the perfect opportunity to 
trade with European collectors for 
the Playmobil Golden Knight.
In mid to late July, 
PEZ will bring 
SUMMER VIBES
with a Summer PEZ dispenser.
This summer Hawaiian-themed dispenser 
is a brilliant idea that no one expected.
USA and Europe!
The excitement continues throughout 
the summer, with another great special
 dispenser expected in August,
and it won’t be a ball, mascot, 
or the PEZ presenter girl. 
Something fabulous is coming!
USA and Europe!
We can also look forward to the 
orange PEZ presenter girl, 
which is no longer a secret, but she won't be 
the only girl this year...
PEZ has a few surprises planned for the autumn 
as well, including a special Halloween 
dispenser that is both great and lovely.
We are really looking forward to this!
USA and Europe!
Oh yes, and of course there is also 
the purple glitter Hello Kitty for our
 American PEZ friends, which will be 
found somewhere between all these release dates.
 
 In the secret offices of PEZ, 
finishing touches on the special
 editions coming in 
autumn and winter are already being worked on,  
and PEZ has prepared 
M O R E 
surprises for us.
 
This year will continue to be exciting and fun, 
and we’re left wondering how PEZ 
will top this next year.

This is why we love our hobby so much!
Exciting times are ahead, anticipation is the best joy!
Happy Collecting!

$12,500 For the Connecticut Humane Socitey from the Indy 500 Presenter Girl Contest!

We eagerly anticipated the announcement,
 checking our emails obsessively for 
news about the 
Sweets and Snacks Expo 
PEZ Presenter Girl. 
 So, there was great rejoicing in the 
PEZ community when many American collectors 
had the opportunity to buy the 
coveted PEZ Girl for $50. 
 
We are thrilled, PEZ is thrilled, 
and most importantly, 
the animals are benefiting, 
as part of the proceeds from the PEZ Girl 
sales were donated to the Connecticut Humane Society.

PEZ has now handed over a check to the 
Connecticut Humane Society, 
raising and donating an incredible $12,500. 
 
The honor of presenting the check went
 to none other than Shawn P. 
It's wonderful to see everyone happy and satisfied,
 knowing that together with PEZ, we achieved something 
great for the animals.

Golden PEZ SpongeBob Key Chain..... Celebrate 25 Years of SpongeBob with New PEZ Collectibles!

It's the year of SpongeBob's!
Not only are we celebrating the 25th anniversary, 
but SpongeBob remains popular and idolized worldwide. 
We've already added four new PEZ dispensers
 to our collections this year and are eagerly 
awaiting the release of the new PEZ Pineapple Tin 
with the silver PEZ SpongeBob. 
Now, there's a golden PEZ SpongeBob again! 

Yes, you read that right ;) 
However, it's only
 a licensed golden PEZ SpongeBob 
keychain from Japan. 

The PEZ SpongeBob keychains were released 
in Japan last year. 
The two SpongeBobs and the Patrick
 keychain from last year are now joined by 
the golden PEZ SpongeBob keychain 
from PLAZA Style in Japan.

While the original limited edition of 
1,000 golden PEZ SpongeBob dispensers
 has significant collector's value, 
the golden keychain will never be worth as much. 

Still, it's definitely a great eye-catcher in 
any PEZ collection, but sadly only in Japan available. 
Happy Collecting!

Happy Birthday Playmobil! Here is the new Limited Edition Golden PEZ Playmobil Knight....

The beloved toy PLAYMOBIL is commemorating
 a remarkable milestone birthday. 
For half a century, these vibrant figures
 have symbolized the joy of play and creativity.

Since its inception in 1974, 
over 3 billion of these iconic 7.5 cm 
toy figures have found their way 
into countless children's rooms worldwide.

Such an occasion calls for a grand celebration!
Following the successful launch of the
 Playmobil PEZ range by PEZ International (Europe)
last year, featuring the 
Police Officer, Firefighter, Princess, and Knight dispensers, 
there's now something truly extraordinary to look for.

The Knight was among the pioneering 
figures introduced by Playmobil in 1974. 
Thus, PEZ is marking Playmobil's 50th anniversary
 with a special PEZ Knight.
The new PEZ Knight, available in a strictly 
limited edition (only 1900 pieces)
 in a gold version on a black stem, 
can be exclusively purchased online from the 
PEZ International European shop,here.
Regrettably, our American PEZ collector community
 can only obtain this dispenser through 
European PEZ dealers or their European 
PEZ acquaintances this time.

It's time to strike a deal or arrange a swap.

As many of you may already know, there's
 something special planned just for the 
USA for the 4th of July. 
This presents an excellent opportunity 
to trade for the PEZ Playmobil Knight dispenser.
 Regardless, act swiftly as these dispensers
 are expected to sell out rapidly, 
and once they're gone, they're gone for good!
Get your special PEZ Playmobil dispenser here.

Back by popular demand! Peppermint Sugar-Free PEZ Candy Tins...

Back in 2013 PEZ International introduced 
the mini PEZ Tins with the 
sugar free Peppermint PEZ tablets 
to the European market for the first time.

Now there is a revival in the USA! 
Due to the high demand, PEZ Candy Inc. 
has now included them in their online store.
Even though most American PEZ collectors 
probably already have the lovely little tins 
in their collections, it is a great opportunity 
for new PEZ collectors to now purchase the 
tins online from PEZ Candy Inc. (here).
Four different tins are offered
 fulfilled at random.
Years ago, PEZ International designed a 5th PEZ Tin, 
with mini Cherry Mint tablets, 
which unfortunately never made it into production.
You can get your mini tins (here).
Happy Collecting!
Cherry Mint Peppermint PEZ Tin, Prototype, never made it into production.

TWO Variations! USA Flag special crystal Glitter dispensers...

We spotted the Crystal Glitter PEZ USA Flag
 Ball proudly displayed at the 
PEZ Visitors Center a few months back.

This marks a significant milestone in 
the company's history as it's the first 
time a PEZ has been crafted to 
commemorate Flag Day. 

Now, as Flag Day approaches, 
PEZ is commemorating the occasion with the 
release of the new ball, available for purchase
 online from PEZ.com. 

The patriotic USA blister card adds an 
extra touch of pride.
You can check it out

Have you noticed the subtle variations? 
Upon closer inspection, you'll find 
two different stem colors.

The latest ball features a striking red stem, 
exclusively offered through PEZ Candy Inc.'s online store. 
Meanwhile, the same dispenser, sporting a blue stem, 
makes its debut this year as part of a 
limited release of 2,500 pieces, 
exclusively within the Pamp Suisse Fourth 
of July PEZ Silver Gift Set. (Learn more here)
Of course, acquiring the gift set comes at a price, 
and each collector must weigh whether the 
new silver gift box is worth the investment
 solely for this unique addition.
Exciting news awaits! 
As teased on our blog, PEZ has another surprise
 in store for us this Fourth of July. 
Rest assured, it won't be just another Ball Mold.
The anticipation continues to build for
 collectors everywhere.
Happy Collecting!
