Variations

In addition to no feet dispensers, Pez can be found with three types of feet: thin, normal feet and thick feet.

Thin feet were the first types of feet to be added to dispensers. Thick feet then began to appear. Eventually, the thickness of the foot was standardized into what is now considered to be normal feet.

Years Produced

In the mid- to late 1980's.

Patents & Countries

Thin feet mostly appear on 3.9 patent stems. They can occasionally be found on 3.4 patent stems, but not on any other patent numbers.

Countries that produced Pez dispensers with thin feet include Austria, China, Hong Kong, Hungary, Jugoslavia and Yugoslavia.

Stems

All stem colors could have thin feet.
