One can't help but wonder,
was this a masterstroke of marketing
from the very beginning, or did PEZ Candy Inc.
take a brilliant cue from the ever-creative
PEZ collecting communities?
Last year, collectors were treated to a sparkling
surprise with the release of the
Crystal Glitter PEZ USA Flag Ball dispenser,
featuring a blue stem, exclusively included
in the limited Pamp Suisse Fourth of July PEZ Silver Gift Set.
With only 2,500 pieces produced, it instantly
became a coveted item among enthusiasts.
Soon after, PEZ Candy Inc. followed up with
a second version of the same USA Flag Ball design,
this time mounted on a red stem, launched as a
Limited Edition Online Exclusive.
That’s when something fascinating happened
in the PEZ communities:
collectors began customizing their dispensers
by swapping out stems.
The goal?
To complete the patriotic color trio
red, white, and blue,
just like the American flag.
What started as a DIY effort by passionate
fans is now becoming official. PEZ Candy Inc.
has embraced the idea and is releasing a third
version of the dispenser, now with a white stem,
once again as an Online Exclusive.
With the addition of this final variant,
the USA Flag Ball trilogy is now complete:
red, white, and blue, each shimmering with
crystal glitter, and each celebrating the spirit
of American creativity and independence.
It might just be a humble ball-shaped dispenser,
but for collectors and PEZ lovers alike,
it's a symbol of thoughtful design and
responsive fan engagement.
Here’s to another exciting addition to the
ever-growing world of PEZ dispensers,
may there be many more surprises to come!
Here you can get the new dispenser for your Collection!
Happy Collecting!
