March holds so much promise! The end of Winter and the beginning of Spring, longer days and lucky for you – more new PEZ! It is an exciting month for us as we celebrate our 20th anniversary in the Pez Collectors Store! The Pez Collectors Store PCS logo is our own creation and the small print says Patent 3.17.2005 which is the date that we launched the Pez Collectors Store online. The PCS logo and website were designed by my oldest son, Todd Jordan who will also celebrate his birthday on the same day! St. Patrick’s Day is always special around here!
February had plenty of new releases and we have been stocking the shelves in the Pez Collectors Store! To celebrate Valentine’s Day, Pez released limited edition exclusive Stitch and Angel Valentines pez. Stitch and Angel have hearts and kiss lips printed on the stems and the two cards go together! When placed side by side, you can see that Angel is blowing her love and kisses to Stitch! This is a great twist on the Disney Couples pez pairs from long ago! We have the Stitch and Angel Valentine Couples in stock now in the Pez Collectors Store.
It's a BOY and It’s a GIRL Panda bears are an adorable way to do a birth announcement or gender reveal party favor! These pez come in Blue and Pink with It’s a BOY and It’s a GIRL printed on the stems. The cards also have a To and From line on the back of the card so you can personalize the gift! These are available now.
Sam Wilson as Captain America and the Red Hulk are in stock now in the Pez Collectors Store. These two new additions to the Marvel Pez Collection are in honor of the new Captain America: Brave New World movie. These new Marvel pez look great together! Unfortunately, the pez twin pack with this new Marvel pez pair was canceled. But, the new pez are available in polybags with pez candies!
We added a couple of new metal signs to the Pez Collectors Store because the vintage advertising signs are so awesome! Check them out!
The Minecraft Zombie pez is on its way to us now and we expect to have these available within the week. Zombie is a great addition to the Minecraft Pez assortment, joining Creeper, Pig, Alex, Steve, and Enderman.
We anticipate that Pez will soon be releasing an exclusive limited edition pez for St. Patrick’s Day. What will it be? Could it be a shamrock? A different Leprechaun? Maybe a girl Leprechaun? We will know it when we see it! May the Luck of the Irish or at least the Care Bears be with you!
Easter is April 20, 2025. To celebrate, this year there is a new White Head Purple Eye Floppy Ear Bunny pez on a hot pink stem and a new Pink Sitting Bunny on a yellow stem. The molds are not new, but the color variations are completely new for the 2025 Easter pez releases. We have these in stock now on Happy Easter cards with new graphics!
We have a few of the Easter Peeps Pez sets with 3 Peeps Chicks and 3 new Peeps Bunnies still available. The card graphics are new this year and each dispenser comes with 3 packs of pez candies. One of the packs is a brand-new Blueberry Flavor Pez Candy! Hurry, they won’t last much longer!
The new Easter Egg Pez for 2025 is in stock now. This year, the Egg is Purple and the image is a chick wearing Rabbit Ears, holding an Easter Basket. The egg sits on a yellow stem. These Easter Egg Pez are available only in tubes. We have them now in the Pez Collectors Store!
We anticipate that Pez will release an exclusive limited edition for Easter, 2025. It could be a special Easter Egg as has been done in the past, or it could be something entirely different – a bunny, a chick, a lamb or something entirely different. Again, we will just have to wait and see!
We added several new licensed items for those who love all things PEZ! Check out the Strawberry Pez Scented Body Spray, Pez Sours Scented Sidewalk Chalk and the Pez IPhone case! We have these available now in the Pez Collectors Store!
2025 USA Hello Kitty are due to begin shipping March 15. Our order is placed and we look forward to adding the new Kuromi, My Melody and Hello Kitty with purple printed stem to the Pez Collectors Store. Then new printed purple stem Hello Kitty will also be available in a twin pack pair set. Hello Kitty will be packed with Kuromi and with My Melody in the two twin packs. Note, the color of the stems in the twin packs is known to be incorrect, but we have yet to get revised images from PEZ Candy, Inc.
The European Hello Kitty Pez assortment is on the way and tracking shows that it should be coming soon! The Rainbow ombre Full Body Hello Kitty is cute as can be and the Hello Kitty with Blue Bow with rainbows are available only in Europe. The purple printed stem Hello Kitty is likely the same as what will be released in the USA, but the stem printing is so nice that having two can’t hurt at all!
The European Naruto Pez set is also on the way now. Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura are the three pez in this Japanese Manga assortment. These are expected to be the same as those due to be released in the USA April 1. We will have the European versions available loose, hopefully a bit sooner than we will receive our order for the USA versions. We will also have the twin pack which features Naruto and Sasuke soon after the first of April.
The new Pokemon assortment is scheduled for release April 1. Happy Pikachu with closed eyes will come on a red stem, Winking Eevee and a new Gengar will be new in the assortment, joining the Pokeball pez! Our order is placed and we will have these in stock as soon as our order is shipped to us!
