Spring

Remember Pez? Just as you almost had one fully loaded, the spring would fire a candy at you too soon. It frustrated me enough to just eat the candy without the plastic dispenser.

As a non-serious collector of Pez dispensers, I herald your tribute to this great American kitsch!
Terrific illustration!

i do, i do remember pez. In fact for christmas I gave my husband a reindeer pez dispenser. He had never had a pez, yes he was deprived as a kid. But as you said, we ended up sharing the pez right out of the package.

Ok now on to your drawing....
Your style is very dramatic and modern with an "old skool" feel to it. The drawing is humorous, yet a little moody at the same time, especially with that big redbrick of pez coming out of his mouth, I wonder how it would have looked with the same subject and the pez coming out of the neck.
