PEZ quarterly wrapup
I've been pretty busy, and having written a whole lot lately. Holidays have come and gone. The PEZ piles up, and yet I still do not post...until now.
Come on in for a peek at the latest additions
I'm going to move pretty quick here, and just give the pertinent information. Try to keep up, keep your seat belt fastened, and keep your arms inside the car at all times.
Ready? Here we go...
First up is a breast cancer PEZ that was made to help raise money. This PEZ has feet so that it can 'race for the cure' ... awww. I just got this one today, and I'm pretty happy with it. Even better, a large percentage of the money that I paid is being donated. You feel good, and you get a PEZ.
Next up is a crystal fireman and policeman. These were released in a limited edition from pez.com, and sold out in a day. I wasn't lucky enough to get them then, but I picked them up when I was at home for the holidays, from Dave Hall at Small Town Coins, conveniently located near my sister's house. If ever find yourself in Michigan (you know, the state shaped like a mitten) stop in and buy some PEZ.
The next picture is a PEZ I found this weekend at a 99 cents only store here in Dallas. Someone forgot to include eyes for this PEZ, and we are left with a gruesome factory error. This will definitely keep kids from eating your candy. Aaarrggh...
Another purchase from Dave Hall is the Frog whistle, a great addition to my growing PEZ whistle category.
I also picked up the US release of the Incredibles. It's a great looking set. I think that they probably came from a ToysRUs. Probably one of the nicest uses of stem decoration yet.
PEZ has also redone the Valentine's Day hearts again. There are a gazillion different sayings, and several new colors. They also have one of the worst uses of stem decorations.
Next up are some more PEZ from Dave at Small Town. These include a cool soccer pez, and then two fab PEZ from my Mom. She got me a silver donkey from Shrek and a crystal Hamm elephant. These all look quite nice in my collection.
That's it for now. See, I told you I'd make it quick.

It's always nice to see another pez collector's site. I love the background photo featuring the pez blueprint! I got a kick out of the breast cancer pez "having feet so it can race for the cure" - how appropriate!
Do you have a store where you sell them? If so where is it?
"Oedipus PEZ?" had me cracking up!!! That's a great one!
