Hi All :)
Does anyone have any photos or remember Monster Candy Lollipops from 1980s?
I do not recall what they looked like, but there were from all of the monsters.
I believe Frankenstein was green.
We used to get these in the 1980s, but I still have not found a photo of these.
Thank you All :)

Welcome to the UMA, monster_mash_88! :)
I don't remember the '80s lollypops. There was some a couple of years ago.
-
I tried finding images of the Monster Candy Lollipops. Unfortunately, nothing.
-
Ok.
Thank you both :)
They came in a bag of various flavours for one for each monster.

Were these Universal Monsters, or generic Franks, vampires, werewolves, etc.?
Regular hard candy lollypops?
-
Were the Frankenstein ones green with white "candy paint" for the face? I remember them.
-
Yes, white candy paint I believe.
Possibly black paint.
The candy was cream color not clear.
They were in a big bag.
They were the actual Universal Monsters. No generic.

Now all we need is pitchers!

Hmmm... The ones I'm thinking of were glossy and unlicensed. I have no recollection of official Universal Monsters lollipops, but they may have predated me. I remember the Universal Monsters Three Musketeers from the early-mid '90s and the candy cigarettes that were produced from the '60s on. Other than that, I don't recall any other officially licensed candy. However, I would very much like to see these or hear more about them. I recall the type of lollipop you describe: cream color. For some reason, the Phantom of the Opera in pink pops into my head. But I have no idea why. Could just be my imagination going wild. So, come on people! Bring on the info and let's find some pictures! :D

Well....when did these come out? *EDIT* Apparently these were a 2018 release. Probably not what you were looking for but it's the first image I found and I sure don't recall any discussion here about these licensed lollies.

Sculpted by the same fellow who sculpted the S7 Soapiez and a number of their ReAction figures (but not the UM ReActions).

When were those released?

Marsattacks666, if you're asking about the My Idolpops, they were first released in 2012. I don't konw how long they ran, but I believe they are discontinued now.
I'm completely unfamiliar with the licensed lollis monster_mash_88 is describing and following with interest.

They do seem to have slipped thru the cracks!

NEVER saw those, but did get some of the World Market candy. I forgot about that.
