Shown here, two different generations of Spiderman.
Don't Make Me Angry, You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Angry...
The Incredible Hulk from the 1970s forward
The Hulk has a special place of pride in my PEZ collection. My littlest Hulk dispenser, that is to say the one with the smallest head, who is standing all the way to the left, also has no feet!That can mean only one thing. He was produced before 1978. I've only got one other PEZ that is as old, and I know I've owned both since junior high. PEZ that have no feet are all older and worth more than PEZ that have feet.
The Hulk has gotten larger, greener and angrier over the years. The new über-big head Hulk gave me an idea for a Fantasy PEZ one day. If you're lucky, I'll make a lens and show you.

I'm Batman!
the Dark Knight evolves over the years
If the Caped Crusader is your thing, you've got quite a variety of Batman PEZ dispensers to choose from. Some of the rarest Batman PEZ dispensers fetch hundreds of dollars at auction. Hint: detachable cape = super-duper rare and expensive.I've got three. The pale blue one is the oldest. He's from before the franchise got revived, when Batman was just Adam West from the TV show. The middle Batman, the black one, was produced during the Val Kilmer era of the Batman movies. The dark blue Batman on the right, with the big head, is from the Clooney era Batman days.

No one is quite sure what the baby's superpower is, but he seems to be wielding a variety of abilities at the end of the movie.In Europe, the Incredibles set shows them in their "average" family guises and the characters vary by one. The baby is gone and in his place is daughter Violet, then son Dashiell, mom Helen Parr and dad Bob Parr.

There's no denying it. Spiderman has gotten a big head over the years. It's true. If you compare the older version of Spiderman with the new reissue, the new one has a much bigger head.The one with the smaller head is an older variation, made with removable eyes. The eyes are also painted.

Wolverine
He's the only X-man to make it as a PEZ. And he's not the movie Wolverine, he's the comic book one. With black or yellow stems. Wonder Woman
She can't rope in the bad guys with her golden lasso, as she hasn't got arms, but Wonder Woman is one of the rare female heroine figures to become a PEZ. Ones with the raised star are older and worth more.She's also got a second life as the base from which dozens of sets of KISS Fantasy PEZ dispensers are crafted.
