Pez Watch & Candy Dispenser - Blue and Pink

I blogged one of these watches just over a year ago, and this is a variation on that model.

This is a Pez watch which acts as a sweet dispenser holding 6 of the rectangular Pez sweets. It is one of a range of dispensers that Pez released but is not as well known as the cartoon head dispensers that Pez is associated with.

The watch dispensers were released in 1995 and came in a variety of colours. They were made in China by a company called Malibu Fun Stuffed Inc from California (with an international arm which started in 1992 and dissolved 2001). This model has some different box art than the others, and has a Dream Castle logo on the front and Time 2 Go (tm) on the back. Dream Castle are another California company and are the place to make warranty claims to.

The watch part is a standard 4 digit LCD model. It has the usual basic features of time, date, and seconds, but you need a pen to press the buttons.

Pez Watch and Candy Dispenser

Today I'm blogging another watch that is still sealed in it's original packaging, and this also contains food..
The watch is both a watch and a Pez dispenser. Pez candy has always been associated with themed dispensers with all manner of cartoon characters. They also released other items such as necklaces, bracelets, key chains, and teddy bears, as well as watches such as this.

It was released in 1995, by Malibu Fun Stuffed (from Agoura Hills, California), licenced by Pez Candy, and made in China. The watch module is a basic LCD with 4 characters and time, date, and seconds modes.
The watch also is a sweet dispenser and can store 6 Pez candies. To fill the watch, the front rotates open, and sweets are dispensed out of the left side of the watch using the little lever on the right side.

The watch has an item number of on the box #20001. It seems to have been aimed for Europe as the packaging is in both English and French.
