"Do you remember when PEZ launched the Wizard of OZ 70th anniversary 8-pc limited edition collector set in 2009? In 2014 Warner Brothers will be celebrating the 75th anniversary of this iconic movie. We are considering jumping on board with a new collector set complete with eight new characters that did not appear in the original 2009 set. It has not been decided yet but the new dispensers may include: Dorothy in pigtails, lion with the flowerpot crown, Tin man with a heart, Winged monkey, Ruby slippers, Lollipop munchkin, Professor Marvel, the State Fair air balloon, the winkie guard or others. I am looking for feedback before making an investment in the property. Is this something that you would consider purchasing? Adding to your PEZ collection? We welcome your thoughts and ideas…and thanks!!"

"We are considering development of an 8pc PEZ collector set with steam trains as a theme. The set is conceived of as both a toy and a candy dispenser. This is the idea -- we will do eight traditional PEZ dispensers. These can include a steam locomotive, coal car, lumber car, two box cars, two cattle cars, and a caboose. The train cars and locomotive will be on PEZ bases but designed so that they can be taken off the dispenser base similar to what we are doing with our PEZ pull and go hot wheels. There will be a hook and eye mechanism built into the dispenser so they can be connected together. Wheels may turn for added play value. In addition we are thinking about printing the interior of the box with land features and train tracks so that the box can be taken apart and flattened and used as part of the play. What are your thoughts? Do you think that this is something that you would like and would purchase for yourself or for a gift? We would like some feedback on this before we make an investment in it. Your thoughts are most welcome."
