Variations

Peter Pez A, A remake, B

Version A was originally released in the 1970s, and was then re-released with updated stencils starting in the early 1990s. The original A has red lips while the re-release has purple lips.

Version B features a restyled head with more cartoon-like features and was available as a glow-in-the-dark in certain color combinations.

The common variations of version A have the word PEZ stenciled across the hat. An unusual variation exists with the word "Rico" on the hat. This was intended for Spanish speaking markets where "Pez" translates as fish -- "rico" translates as "tasty" or "delicious".
