6-4 What are the PEZ Body Parts?
Right from the package, "Body Parts are amusing attachable parts, with
which you can dress up your PEZ dispensers." These plastic pieces
snap around the base of the dispenser. The arms move up and down and
the hands are made to hold certain items. PEZ Body Parts are
currently available in Canada and Europe. It is not known if they
well be sold in the United States. There are several different sets
of Body Parts: the "old" set, the "new" set, plus Easter and Christmas
sets. There are also plans for Back to School, Airport, and Gas
Station Body Part Playsets for European release. In addition, there
are "two-pack" or "side-by-side" body parts. These have a dispenser
and a separate body part on one (larger) card.
The "old" set was released in 1995 and consists of eight different
costumes (All packs include 2 packs of candy):
