DUCKY, DYNAMIC DALLIN

In honor of Dallin's birthday a donation in made on his behalf to the Cornwall PEZ Museum of the following:
DONALD DUCK - This is a new version of Donald to go with the current Mickey Mouse series. The most significant change is in Donald's small bulb of a hat.
BATMAN W/ POINTED EARS - This is a rare variation of the "big head" Batman . The sharp thin ears seemed a bit hazardous so a rounded, thicker ear was produced for general release of the senior-member-of-the-dynamic-duo. This batman joins his other likenesses in the Super Hero family.

PEZ WATCH - 4/08

BRUCE the shark ... from Finding Nemo... is a brand new issue to be part of the BEST OF PIXAR series. Keep on the look out. Being a single - it will be easy to miss.

PEZ WATCH - 3/08

Watch out for the first of this FARIES new series. Other than Tinkerbell the others are somewhat unknowns.

It wouldn't be a complete birthday for Robbie without some fun PEZ.
These complete the NASCAR set and the FOOTBALL set.

EASTER PEZ 2008

5 new pez joined the Cornwall collection
from this year's Easter Baskets.

The one on the right is new 2008 Easter Lamb. This replaces the lamb on the left as part of the current Easter set which continues with the same-old Rabbit, Pink Bunny and Fat Chick of the last few years.

FOUR Easter Chicks joined the collection: left to right...

1) Collector colored Crystal Convention Fat Chick

2) & 4) Scalloped edge shell Chick with Red Hat and thin feet. (Note the difference with the somewhat newer chicks - behind - with saw-tooth edged shell.)
3) Yellow stem, no feet Chick with Red Hat. This is a much older chick and rare with the yellow stem. (Note: It is not the oldest chick. The oldest has no hat.)

PEZ WATCH - 2/08

Look for a new KUNG FU PANDA series. The characters are based on the upcoming Dreamworks film: Po (voice of Jack Black) - is a lowly noodlemaker/waiter who is a kung fu fanatic but the laziest of all the animals in ancient China. MASTER MONKEY (voice of Jackie Chan) - the joker of the bunch. MASTER TIGRESS (voice of Angelina Jolie) - the brave, strong, no nonsense fighter and SHIFU (voice of Dustin Hoffman) - the master teacher. A prophecy has named Po as the "Chosen One" . With the help of 5 of the greatest warriors the world has ever known it is up to Po to save the valley from Tai Lung, who has recently escaped from prison.

Interesting Note - Shen Lung Kung Fu uses animals as a base for the whole system and disciples of the main master are animal stances or styles commonly used in the art of kung fu - Tiger, Monkey, Snake, Crane and Mantis. These "characters" are the warriors in the movie

NEW MICKEYS

Dad's birthday added the Mickey Mouse collectors tin to the collection. These are unique PEZ with full figure Mickeys from his different eras.

PEZ WATCH - 1/08

Word is that these 3 new 80th ANNIVERSARY MICKEY MOUSE PEZ are out

2008 REVEALED

Here is a preview of anticipated 2008 releases. Looks fun (except for the Pirates of the Carri bean... I am not sure I like the "real life" figures being put out in the past year.)

There will also be a couple more college footballs this year - Virginia Tech and North Carolina - ughhh! no BYU yet. I guess this will be an almost infinite set... Like the pro-baseball set, (see above) which I am not sure the Cornwall Museum collectors will pursue. We have a baseball and a baseball is a baseball.

Thanks to dreamlife90 who e-mailed this to me.

2007 COMPLETE

As of today - when I got the final 2007 NASCAR helmet (on e-bay for 99 cents - Yeah!) I think we have added to the Cornwall Collection every 2007 issue.... I know of. I have been trying to get that last helmet for months. In fact I got one on e-bay a few weeks ago but the guy forgot to mail it to me and then ran out. (col)

PEZ PUZZLE

This is one of those games where you try and find all the differences between two illustrations that, at first glance appear to be the same. How many differences are there in the characters in the top picture...the original Cornwall Pez Museum DISNEY SET, and the bottom picture... as set which, I just found out was supposed to be out last year.

This is also a PEZ WATCH for this new Mickey set. They look kinda like the EXTREME DISNEY set without the extreme expressions and accessories.
For your interest the other DISNEY SETS in the Cornwall Collection are shown below.

New Displays 4 '08

Some of the sets have kind'of been in moth balls since the parlor remodel started. It was time to get them out, in new settings into the light of a Pez-i-lisious day.

New Corner Shelf

New Desk Top Display

New Pinboard Display of MOC's

PEZ WATCH

For Valentines 2008 PEZ is issuing new CRYSTAL HEARTS - RED & PINK. The Crystal Hearts will have the same 13 sayings as past years.

I found this new picture today (1/19) that is kinda fun because it shows all 26 new ones.

Below is the list of Valentine Hearts in the current CORNWALL collection. What we are looking to add is 1 Red Crystal Heart and 1 Pink Crystal Heart with one of the five sayings (at the bottom of the list) that we do NOT already have.

Currently in the Cornwall Valentine Family.

BIRTHDAY PEZ

The lucky 18 year old got the BEE MOVIE set.
And she got the GOLDEN COMPASS set.
Two great additions to the Cornwall PEZ museum to closeout 2007.

PEZ WATCH

Keep your Nascar eyes peeled for a new DAYTONA 500 issue. We need the individual and the kit with the companion hauler truck.

And don't forget, we still have not found the two that came out last summer - JIMMY JOHNSON and DALE EARNHARDT JR.

This one should be easier to find out Christmas shopping. The ARCTIC BABY REINDEER joins the ARCTIC BABY series which came out last Christmas. The reindeer will join the POLAR BEAR, SEAL, and PENGUIN.
(Hint - Last year Mom found them at Wal-mart)

A PEZ BREW

In honor of Miss Paisley Cornwall's birthday number 2 she gets 2 PEZ. Number 1 was sent to her in wrapping paper (with a load of PEZ candy to dispense). She can share about that if she wants to.

Number 2 PEZ is a CLEAR CRYSTAL WITCH "C" - donated to the Cornwall PEZ Museum in Honor of Paisley's 2nd birthday.

The Clear Crystal Witch joins her Witch "C" sisters, Yellow Face, standard Green Face, Glow-in-the-dark, and Black Face

She also joins her CLEAR CRYSTAL cousins, the SLIMY, HAPPY & SPOOKY GHOSTS, SKULL "B" and PUMPKIN "C".

ANY ONE FIND ANY NEW PEZ LATELY????
