We always appreciate our readers for assisting others in
finding PEZ dispensers as soon as they become available.
A special thank you to Bill for sharing his experience with us.
Here it is.
❤️ We are pleased to bring you the first
HQ pictures of the Disney Parks PEZ ❤️
We bought Disney Parks PEZ! Your report yesterday
morning inspired my wife and me to drive down to Disney World,
where we found the dispensers and purchased
2 to 4 sets of the entire collection, which consists of five dispensers in 2025.
Where We Searched:
We only shopped in the Disney Springs complex, which is separate from the Disney Parks. Disney Springs is free to enter, and parking is also free. It houses what is likely the largest Disney retail store in the world—the World of Disney store. Additionally, Disney Springs has many smaller retail shops that seemed like potential locations for PEZ.
What We Found
We purchased one PEZ dispenser—Disney Parks Mickey Mouse with a soccer hat—at World of Disney. Considering the size of this store, we expected the entire Disney Parks PEZ collection to be available there, but Mickey was the only one we found.
Our best move was asking a cast member (Disney retail employee) if they knew where to find the new Disney Parks dispensers. She kindly checked inventory on her iPhone and directed us to Goofy’s Candy Company.
At Goofy’s Candy Company, we found and purchased the rest of the Disney Parks PEZ collection.
Observations:
Our experience is based solely on searching Disney Springs; we did not enter any Disney World theme parks. However, having visited all the Disney Parks over the years, we’ve learned a few things about finding PEZ at Disney:You won’t find a large PEZ display in any store.
PEZ is often displayed in secondary locations, taking a backseat to higher-priced, more profitable merchandise like Princess dolls. PEZ may not be available where you expect to find it. In 2019, we searched for the Disney Parks Slinky Dog dispenser but couldn't find it. A cast member checked inventory and informed us it was stocked at a smaller Disney resort hotel.
Not all cast members know what PEZ is—or where it’s located. Even if they recognize PEZ, they may not know where it’s stocked in their store.
Find a cast member with an iPhone connected to the store’s inventory system. They don’t need to know what PEZ is—they just need to search for it in the system. These employees are extremely helpful and can even retrieve stock from storage.
Disney stocks merchandise near similarly priced items. PEZ won’t be placed next to high-end collectibles or popular character-themed displays. For example, you might expect the Disney Parks Crystal Cinderella PEZ to be near other Cinderella or Princess merchandise, but it won’t be. It also won’t be next to candy bars or impulse-buy products.
Overall, persistence and knowing where to look
(or who to ask) are key to finding PEZ at Disney!
Thank you Bill M. for sharing your experience with our readers. ❤️
Don't forget your Monorails!
