CHILDREN OF THE SUN

The young alchemist held the light

and stared into its solar rays,

forged betwixt the stars at night

to shine upon our darkening days.

SCOOBY DOO PEZ

Hi,

The subject of PEZ and Scooby Doo recently came up. Very Halloween!

I recall seeing these in the shops a little while ago, although I did not actually get a set. The five main characters from the series: Scooby Doo, Shaggy, Freddie, Daphne, and Velma, were all available. Each comprised a moulded plastic head, atop a standard PEZ dispenser.

The Scooby gang were available individually on blister cards, in plastic bags, or all together in a large set. The packaging resembled the Mystery Machine van - I think this is simply a printed cardboard box. I never saw any of these sets, just the individually carded versions.
