From this article on eater.com: http://la.eater.com/archives/2012/11/14/sweet_could_be_the_worlds_most_epic_candy_store.php

Looks like they have Stay Puft tumblers and other things I haven’t seen before.

Anybody on the West Coast wanna make a candy run for us?

If there is enough interest I’m willing to do a candy run for anyone who may be interested. Should I begin an interest list?

No Crunch bars? How can it call itself a Ghostbusters candy section without Crunch bars? :lol:

I think this is the Marshmallow section of the store.

There are probably a ton of Crunch bars in a different part of the store.

INterested in a candy run fo sho! I need a couple bags of them mallows oh and if you can get that stay puft display off the wall I will take that too:)

Hell with the Candy! I want a case of that slimed! drink and a Stay Puft thermal mug

I’d take one of everything.

That stuff looks awesome!

candy candy candy.

I’ll be up that way next weekend…

As it happens, in the very next picture of the article…

Thanks for the heads up. It’s right near my place so I went by tonight. At first I couldn’t find Stay Puft, and the reason why is because he’s kind of got his own disconnected store which is really cool.

The boxed mallows on the shelves are different from the bagged mallows on the table. Both come in assorted flavors.

This was my haul for the time being. I can literally walk to the place so I’m sure I’ll go back.

Boxed mallows are $9, bagged ones I believe were $6. The long mallow candy is $3. Cup is $17. The golf shirt I believe was $50. Slime Sours and the Slimer energy drink were each $4 if I remember correctly. There was also a keychain by the register and another T shirt (I believe it was a woman’s or kids) that I didn’t get a picture of. Oh and that thing you see in the middle of my haul was $20. I don’t know what you would call it, but it’s glass and it looks very nifty on the included spinning light up base. See for yourselves.

Stupid but necessary question…did all of this stuff seem licensed or was it some licensed and some random stuff with Puft Daddy stuck on there.

I have to ask because pretty much all the stuff we haven’t seen before looks bootleg to me.

Pretty certain it’s all legit. The stuff I bought has the necessary (c) Columbia Pictures markings.

Cool.

Either way, like others have said, I want some stuff from there!

Dude!! I’m so in for a polo shirt & one of each of the mallo bags! & a mug! oh and the 3D cube! Let us know what you wanna charge (shipped).

You forgot the disappointed Egon face. :sigh:

That’s an awesome “undiscovered” gem! Anyone know, especially on the west coast if any of the other Stay Puft candy and other merch is sold on-line?

I would have also questioned if most of it was/is officially licensed. Honestly the travel mug/tumbler looked “bootleg” from the store’s photos.

The rotating Stay Puft glass cube thing reminds me of something you would find in a Museum Gift Shop. Is that all it did for $20 bucks?

That store is unbelievably awesome…

I so want a laser-cut Stay Puft cube. :slight_smile:
