In Episode 51 of Get Dispensed: The Pez Podcast, we dive into one of the smallest yet most fascinating corners of the PEZ universe… Japanese mini PEZ. 

Joining Greg is Houston-based collector and community builder Sid Jacobson, the man behind the Facebook Japanese Mini PEZ Collectors group. What starts as a niche curiosity quickly reveals itself to be a world of intricate designs, rare finds, and a passionate international following. 

From capsule machine culture in Japan to the thrill of chasing tiny grails, Sid shares how these miniature marvels captured his attention and why they continue to enchant collectors around the globe. 

Along the way, you’ll discover: 

• How Japanese mini PEZ first appeared and how they were originally sold  

• What makes them so unique (and so addictive to collect)  

• The rarest and most sought-after pieces in the hobby  

• Stories from the collector community that prove big connections can come in small packages  

• And what Sid would create if he designed his own mini PEZ  

Plus, Greg puts Sid through the signature 12-question “Pez pack” challenge and a rapid-fire round that reveals the collector behind the collection. 

Whether you’re a seasoned PEZ head or just discovering the hobby, this episode proves that sometimes the smallest collectibles tell the biggest stories. 

So crack open a pack, line up those dispensers, and get ready—because this episode is small in size, but massive in charm. 

Stay sweet, Pez Posse! 🍬
