We weren't sure if PEZ would resonate with stackers when it first appeared, but it's fair to say, from the sell-out of every release to date, that it has a healthy fanbase.

Still ticking along, MTB-PAMP's neat little silver PEZ homage continues with a seventh release, the fourth of them themed for the Christmas holiday.

PEZ COLLECTION (2019-) by MTB/PAMP Certainly one of the more inventive candy products released over the last century, PEZ has spawned an entire worldwide collector's market because of the way it is sold and used.

Lots of updates to guides and new profiles.

By |2023-10-19T23:38:58+01:00October 19th, 2023|Categories: News Nuggets, Site Update|

Lots of updates to guides and new profiles. You might have thought we'd been a little quieter than usual this week, but nothing could be further from the truth.
