Batman PEZ Dispensers
It has long since been the tradition to use themes on sweets. We all know that sweets are primarily aimed at children and so of course it didn’t take long for sweet manufactures and the like to catch onto this. Whether it is a limited edition version of the sweet or whether it is some fancy packaging, you can bet that when you look at the sweet shelf in the supermarket you will see plenty of them with themes,
Of course these themes vary and will change depending on the latest children’s trend. For example a few years ago you can bet your bottom dollar that Zac Efron and his friends had a range of sweets amongst its masses of merchandise. You just know that during the high of their popularity people children’s TV programs such as Hannah Montana, and Spongebob Square Pants would have joined them.
It is not only short lived trends that make the supermarket sweet shelves, long standing popular TV shows and films also do. Sweets manufacturer PEZ are a good example of this because they make a huge range of themed sweets. In fact, their themed candy dispensers are so well known that they often become collector’s items.
An example of this is the range of Batman sweets that PEZ have brought out. Each pack comes with 3 packs of sweets & an infamous PEZ dispenser featuring Batman, Joker, Riddler or Two-Face. They come individually blister packed and include 3 great tasting candy refills each. Batman is a popular franchise so this is certainly something you will see in many super markets.
If you are looking for something to give a Batman fan as a gift then go with this set. It contains all 4 of the PEZ’s available (Batman, the Joker, the Riddler and Two Face) and 6 packs of PEZ candy all packaged in a well put together Batman themed box.
Any of these that you buy could become collector’s items in the future. This is because the PEZ’s that are available change all the time. The 1978 Batman PEZ dispenser can sometimes be seen on the likes of eBay selling for good money. This is because that version of the sweet is no longer available on the mainstream market. That will happen to the sweets on the supermarket shelf today so could be well worth and investment.
So if you do decide to pick up a pack of themed sweets for a young child, why not take a chance a pick up an extra pack. They are so inexpensive that you won’t notice the extra cost. Put them away somewhere safe and wait. You never know, in a few years time one (or more) of them could make you a nice sum of money. It is not just the Batman ones that are collectibles, so have a look and see which designs your local shop is stocking and pick a few of them up.
