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.

    I recently had some pez for the first time in like 20 years. The candy was better when I was a kid. I can still remember the grape and strawberry flavors, and the modern ones are shit.

      I think the novelty of each piece of candy coming out of a character’s neck made it taste better 🤣 the only flavor I actually remember is a cola flavored one. I remember trying the regular ones a while back and hating it

      I just tried some pez the other day that someone gave me for Christmas, the “grape” flavor tastes like sunscreen.
