It seems like Funko pops shouldn’t have stood a chance in a space so thoroughly saturated with collectible plastic characters from any franchise imaginable. And there was candy involved.
Pez will outlive us all
Im watching that show now!
What show is that?
Silo, one of the very best Apple TV shows.
Watch it, read the books. It’s worth it
Pez was historically unwilling to make disoensers featuring real people. I believe the Elvis Pressley dispenser released 10-15 years ago was the first. many others featuring IRL are fakes as you used to be able to find KISS ones on Ebay that Pez never made.
Funko was more willing to recreate people.
I haven’t seen it here in the comments, so I’ll be a total curmudgeon and say it: fuck Pez. I hope it dies out. Shitty tasting candy dispensed from a shitty dispenser. Even as a kid I was disappointed. Plus, it’s just more needless plastic garbage that ends up in landfills for almost no reason at all
Watch this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pez_Outlaw I came into it blind and absolutely loved it. It tells a cool story about the origin of pez among else.
Saw them at Christmas in Denmark. I haven’t seen them in almost 30 years, so I was tempted to buy them, but I still remember the candy being bad so I passed.
looks like shit
I feel like there’s some article here I’m not seeing here.
Pez never went anywhere. The thing is though, I just looked at my pez the other week. The ones still on sale (as of a few months ago when I bought these) contain red dye #3.
That shit’ll give ya cancer.
So those pez will just never be opened.
Everything gives you cancer
