PEZ LABELS

Notice that LABELS have been added in the left side bar to aid in you viewing and reviewing the fun family PEZ posts.

BATTY BIRTHDAY

2008 BATMAN SERIES
This may seem, to some, to be a very unusual contribution to the PEZ Museum in honor of KATIE'S BIRTHDAY. Certainly Katie is NOT into the Dark Knight and has not seen any of the movies. Yet this IS the week that the new BATMAN is released... which is a looked forward to event by a number of individuals associated with the Cornwall Museum. So, now is the most appropriate time to add the 2008 BATMAN series to the collection

Batmen currently in the
CORNWALL MUSEUM

A new Addition to the collection

We went to iParty today to get some stuff for Caitlin for a YSA trip that she is taking, and there they were. I have done this sort of thing before and dad has beat me too it but I am hoping that that is not the case this time but we were excited when we saw it.

KUNG FU BIRTHDAY

An appropriate donation is made in honor of Jeff's birthday to the Cornwall PEZ museum of KUNG FU PANDA series. Mom, Dad, the girls and Jeffrey all went to see the movie on Jeff's recent visit to 336.

PEZ WATCH - 7/08

This is a fun new pair
but they are a European release only. They are available on e-bay but with the movie being such a hit I would expect WALL-E & EVE to be in the US eventually. ( We don't want to do another SHREK.)
If you want to see a 360 view of WALL-E click here.

PEZ WATCH - 6/08

Two new NASCAR PEZ are just released.
DALE EARNHARDT JR. & CARL EDWARDS

DALE EARNHARDT was just released last year (on a red stem - see post of July 3, 2007). But that wiley Dale soon changed sponsorship to the 'National Guard' and 'Hendricks Motorsports' which are now printed on his black with special silver visor helmet.
CARL EDWARDS is new for 2008 - black stem, 'Office Depot' on the helmet.
After we got the Dale Earnhardt and Jimmie Johnson 2007 releases on Ebay they were seen and could have been obtained retail at Walmart. So keep your eyes out .

PEZ WATCH - 5/08

The new PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN set is supposed to out now.
Keep your land-lubber eyes pealed maties.
And remember to keep on the look-out for BRUCE THE PIXAR SHARK and FAIRIES . They should have been out for a couple of months.
.

JUNE BIRTHDAY GIFTS

In honor of the June Birthday couple, Jason and Stefanie, a donation of 3 Limited Edition PSYCHEDELIC EYEs have been made. These are a 'retro' edition of an old series. There are dozens of combinations of colors produced.

In honor of sweet Marybeth's birthday a new DOGS & CATS keychain series is donated to the Cornwall PEZ museum.

This is a rare set. We have not seen it promoted anywhere nor seen a single character on ebay. We just came across it at Cost Plus store a few weeks ago. You may notice that the characters are mini versions of the PEZ Furry Friends series of Dogs and Cats already in the collection.

TAKE ME OUT TO THE PEZ GAME...

What do you think family? This year PEZ has started a MAJOR LEAGE BASEBALL Series.

We do currently have a generic baseball - see below.

So we have a BASEBALL PEZ in the collection. Do we want/need these first 11 of a series which could possibly grow to include all 30 MLB teams? It's really just a lot of the same PEZ with a different printed logo. Or shall we just get LA and Boston?

RACE TO A HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Every 16 year old hopes for a new car on their birthday. So as not to disappoint our last 16 year old from 336, Sarah gets a new spezcial edition Daytona 500 race car.
This car will join the other Nascar racers in the pull-n-go series. It is a companion to the Daytona 500 helmet and hauler recently added to the collection (see Robbie's birthday).
One of the funnest things is to find a PEZ that you never knew existed. We have never seen this in any collection, on e-bay or anywhere before we walked into the Duarte Wal-mart and there it was... the only one in the whole display of dozens of cars.

ELIZABETH IS #1

On behalf of Elizabeth's special No. 1 Birthday the DISNEY PRINCESS SET is donated to the CORNWALL PEZ MUSEUM. This will certainly be a treasured part of the collection. Now MULAN and POCAHANTAS join the other top line Disney Stars. Happy Birthday Miss Elizabeth

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.
