Collectible Pez Dispensers 101

pezdispensersThere are a number of collectible Pez dispensers out there, including modern collectible Pez dispensers and vintage collectible Pez dispensers alike. Most of the Pez dispensers that were made after the year 1987 have small plastic lips on the bottom of the stem that act as feet, and these were added to the dispensers in order to allow them to stand without assistance. Here are some of the more popular choices for collectible Pez dispensers, including some from each era:

- * Regular Dispensers:
The original collectible Pez dispensers were created in the 1920s in Austria, and they were simply candy dispensers for mints. They had plain tops that dispensed mints and there were no characters or special decorations. There are now modern versions of these vintage collectible Pez dispensers that are missing the heads and feet and dispense mints rather than the colorful Pez candies that we know and love.

- * Holiday Dispensers: There are a number of collectible Pez dispensers out there that are designed to celebrate the holidays, including Halloween, Easter and Christmas to name a few. There are Santa, Rudolph and Angel collectible Pez dispensers for example, as well as Easter themed dispensers such as bunny rabbits, eggs, chicks and lambs, and Halloween dispensers including ghosts, witches, skulls, zombies and jack o’ lanterns. Some of these Halloween themed collectible Pez dispensers even glow in the dark.

- * Disney Themed Dispensers: There are a number of different Disney themed collectible Pez dispensers, of which Mickey Mouse dispensers top the list. There are also Bambi collectible Pez dispensers, Jungle Book dispensers, Lion King and Pinocchio dispensers, Snow White and Peter Pan collectible Pez dispensers, Winnie the Pooh and Mary Poppins dispensers and more to choose from.

- * Star Wars Dispensers: There are a wide variety of collectible Pez dispensers, most of which either feature the heads of the hero characters, or the dark side characters. Heroes depicted on collectible Pez dispensers include Yoda, Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Han Solo.
