Make your own PEZ refills

Non-sticky tiny candy? How could I make my own Pez candy refills? I'd like to make my own PEZ candy in unavailable flavours. (I'm leaning towards ginger) I've found recipes for hard candy, and I figure I could make that and mold it into tiny rectangles?

But I'm worried that the standard hard candy recipe could turn out to be too sticky or hard to work with. Anyone have candy-making tips to emulate that chalky texture we know and love?

Santa Pez Dispenser

I've been trying since christmas to find a picture of a dissassembled Santa Pez Dispencer. If you ever had one, you may remember that you could take off the hat and beard to make a clean shaven Buddha-esque Santa. I assumed I'd be able to throw a stone and hit about ten pictures of this phenenon on Google image search, but I've been searching off and on for a while and havn't fond anything. Anyone know where I can find vistual proof of this without buying one online? (the new, solid-design is all I can find at local stores)

Where can I get a Pez dispenser t-shirt?

Longshot Filter: On the VH1 show 'Totally Obsessed,' there was a brief clip about a guy who is totally obsessed with PEZ. In it, he was wearing a royal blue t-shirt with the rectangular body of a PEZ dispenser screened on to it in white, giving the appearance that his actual, human head was atop a PEZ dispenser. I would love to give this shirt as an xmas gift, but my best efforts at determining the source / origins of this shirt (Google, eBay) have failed.
