OUT OF THIS WORLD! 2024 New Year PEZ Dispenser is here...

INCREDIBLE 
that we have to update our post so quickly,
 but the American contingent of the New Year dispenser
was already sold out in a few minutes!
 
 PEZ is launching us into the 
new year of 2024 with a Space Shuttle!
 
When PEZ recently posed the question on 
their European social media platforms about the 
possible New Year's dispenser, responses 
leaned toward a new Care Bear, PEZ Pal boy, 
or a new PEZ Candy mascot.
However, PEZ knows how to astonish and 
exceed expectations. 
Weeks ago (mentioned here),
 we hinted at a forthcoming dispenser 
not yet in our collections—
hardly anyone expected 
a PEZ rocket as a New Year's dispenser.
Thank you PEZ Candy Inc. for the pictures.
 The new Space/Mars Mission range, 
revealed at the V.I.P PEZ Gathering in Vienna,
 is set to arrive in both Europe and the USA 
in the second quarter of 2024. (here more)

From this range, the creative minds at PEZ 
have selected as an online exclusive
a crystal glitter version of
the rocket to mark the onset of 2024 in a stellar way. 
For the first time, 
there will be 
2024 pieces for the U.S. and 2024 pieces for Europe.
This means that every collector should have 
the opportunity to order one.
USA: here

European PEZ collectors still have to be patient, 
we are sure that it will also be released
 online at PEZ International later this week.
Anticipation mounts for 2024 as 
PEZ promises an extraordinary year ahead,
 teasing exciting new releases.
Coming in 2024 new Space/Mars Mission PEZ assortment.
As previously teased, the new year 
 will introduce a long-awaited mold that many
 of us have desired for years! 

The new 2024 New Year rocket is available for order here
Let's welcome a fantastic PEZ-filled 2024,
 brimming with exciting new dispensers!
Happy Collecting!

Bubbling Surprises: Dive into the PEZ Bath Bomb Experience...

Japan consistently unveils or releases #
new licensed PEZ merchandise, 
often introducing intriguing items. 
 
The latest addition is the introduction 
of quirky PEZ bath bombs. 
These unique bath bombs contain one
 of five PEZ mini dispensers concealed inside.
 
 Upon immersion in water, the bath bomb dissolves, 
revealing small mini PEZ dispensers that surface
 atop the water.

Among the surprises are the 
PEZ boy & girl, alongside the panda, elephant, and duck. 
 
While these mini dispensers aren't functional,
 they make delightful additions to our 
PEZ showcases as display pieces. 


Admittedly, we can't help but feel a tinge of 
envy toward our Japanese PEZ enthusiast friends
 for having access to these fun collectibles.
Thank you Tosihiro for all the pics and video :)
Happy Collecting!

Congratulations to PEZ on the 10th anniversary of the European Online Shop!


It's incredible to think that the PEZ International (Europe) 
online shop has only been around for a decade.
 
 Launching on December 4, 2013, what started
 with a modest selection has evolved into a 
significant chapter in our history.
From a limited range of items to a comprehensive 
collection encompassing dispensers, 
an array of PEZ candies, 
fan merchandise, 
and exclusive online offerings, 
the shop has become a vital source for PEZ enthusiasts.

About a year ago, Julia took charge of the 
web shop at PEZ International, 
and she deserves immense recognition. 
Under her stewardship, we've seen not only numerous
 innovations but also swift restocking when 
items run low, ensuring they're readily available.

Credit goes to Julia for incorporating select 
dispensers from the American range into the online shop's inventory.

Congratulations to PEZ International 
on your 10th anniversary and for cultivating
 such an exceptional online shopping experience! 
The PEZ online shop has truly woven itself into our lives, 
making the experience enjoyable and unforgettable.
You can find the Online shop here (Europe)

creativity and nostalgia.

GABI's Limited Edition Art books are now 
available you can find more information about
PEZ. PALACE

We asked Gabi for an interview, and here's what she had share.

How did you come to photograph PEZ? How did the decision to post a PEZ picture daily on Instagram come about?

Gabi:  I've actually been collecting PEZ since my childhood. The idea to portray my PEZ dispensers had been on my mind for over 10 years. I realized how fascinating they were to me due to their variety. From almost every vacation, trip, and of course, many visits to the supermarket, I would bring back new dispensers. However, back then, I only bought the ones that particularly appealed to me. I didn't purchase those that were less attractive to me at that time.

The initial photos of my series weren't particularly high-resolution. I was searching for clear, straightforward portrait photography, a consistent concept: monochromatic backgrounds, no frills, nothing to distract from my favorites. Even though the initial images didn't meet my resolution standards, they were always on my computer, and PEZ dispensers were all around me, constantly reminding me to start a photo series.

In 2012, I photographed my collection at the time: portraits and overall shots, but only front-facing. In 2018, I repeated the process and began designing a future Instagram feed. I also considered the concept of colors for the respective backgrounds during that time.


How does this unique medium influence or shape your creative process?

Gabi:  Ultimately, Instagram was the suitable medium for me to present my collection. On my personal account, I'm always delighted when I see clearly composed images, especially successful portraits, whether of people or animals.

The idea of posting a picture every day is certainly not new, but I liked the concept because of the strictness of this challenge. Initially, I had prepared about 280 portraits but couldn't decide on the right time to start. Finally, I chose Easter 2021 to kick things off – Easter, the festival of new beginnings, appealed to me. My youngest son lent me a hand and helped me with a quick and smooth start on Instagram.

My first post – naturally, an Easter egg – quickly received many likes. And the number of my followers skyrocketed as well. I was more than surprised and only then began to observe my "competition." Of course, I was also pleased that many of my favorite accounts accepted my follow requests.

With the likes and followers increasing – and still increasing today – my demand for the quality of my images, but also my text contributions, rose. So, I soon decided to photograph the dispensers in a manner similar to mugshots.
4 booklets with 124 pages each, in a total of 496 PEZ pages, with 488 PEZ heads, limited edition of 99 pieces.

    Is there a specific message or emotion you want to convey with your art?

Gabi:  That's actually quite simple and quick to answer: I hope that many, when they open their Instagram accounts in the morning, see a PEZ portrait from me that brightens their day.

An American follower once wrote to me: "Thank you for bringing back the good feelings." I found that really nice.


Are there specific artists or movements that have significantly influenced your work?

Gabi:  I studied Visual Communication and have been running my own graphic design office for many years. During my studies and in my profession, I've encountered countless outstanding artists. It's not just Andy Warhol but also portrait photographers and Pop Art artists who influence me. Among others: Cindy Sherman, Annie Leibovitz, Helmut Newton, Thomas Ruff, Clegg & Gutmann, Jeff Wall, Jeff Koons, Martin Kippenberger.

Actually, I enjoy looking at many things and, when it comes to art, I'm completely open-minded. It can also be music, a great film, or a theater play that motivates me.

But what I particularly like is a touch of humor in art.

Can you describe a memorable moment or experience on your artistic journey?

Gabi:  The memorable moments actually keep increasing. If I can't post for a while, I receive personal inquiries from strangers, asking if I'm okay and that they miss my posts. And, of course, the people around me.

I have a fairly large circle of acquaintances and friends. By now, almost everyone thinks of me whenever they come across PEZ. I then receive messages with pictures and the often-repeated phrase 'Do you have this one?' Increasingly, I have to confirm, but every now and then, there's something special.

For example, a friend recently rescued an Obelix from the bulky waste for me, and another brought me a Tinkerbell from a Leipzig flea market, bargaining it down from 2.50 EUR to 1 EUR because she didn't find the dispenser so appealing.

    How do you want viewers to interpret or engage with your artworks?

Gabi:  Even though it's a high demand, I somehow want to highlight the character trait of each figure – they shouldn't just be seen as toy figures. Before I post a figure, I research once again what its role, its character trait is. Therefore, the texts I write about the images are just as important to me. I'm happy when followers read my texts and give me positive feedback.

     Are there any upcoming projects or ideas you'd like to explore?

Gabi:  The other day, I told my older son, "I'll continue until 1000." He asked, "And then?" to which I replied, "Then it's over." He just commented with a "Oh no," which I take as a 100% compliment.

     Do you have a dream project or artistic goal you're working towards?

Gabi:  Some time ago, I thought about whether I should also portray the true collectors. I've already gotten to know a few of them. That would surely be a wonderful project for the century.
