PEZ WATCH

Images of a few new PEZ are showing up. Some were on the original 2010 list some are surprises.
The PLUSH HELLO KITTY set.

A new HELLO KITTY TIN - a lunch box with ONE new PEZ character that is different from the old tin set issued a couple of years ago. The new character is the full body Hello Kitty at the far left.

The ACE HARDWARE HAULER - available at Ace Hardware stores.

Here is a funny little PEZ that is just becoming available - yes, the weird little GEICO GECKO. Word is that he can be obtained at Geico offices (reportedly they have a number of gecko collectibles). Who has a Geico office near them?

HEART'DAY 2010

The traditional PEZ Valentine Hearts received a design change for 2010. The bottom tip of the heart drops down and overlaps the stem. Only two colors - crystal clear and crystal hot pink - were issued. One of each is added to the Cornwall Collection. Each had two saying (instead of the 13 previously), "Be Mine" and "Happy Valentines Day".

A PEZ find

Marybeth and I just got back from our trip to Europe as you can see from above. I saw the Dalmatian PEZ a while ago in the store and it looked like one that we didn't really have. I didn't think much of it, but in asking questions I found out that it is only sold in Europe. I went back and found that the Bambi PEZ was being sold as well. There were no other from this set. But I was excited to be able to find something before any other candy cornwalls.

PEZ WATCH 01


These are out for Valentines '10. The characters are not new. It's just gift box packaging.
Not much reason to add to the collection.
These have been seen locally at Cost Plus for $7 -$8.
