Does anybody remember The wwf candy lollipops.These we’re not ice cream, they were suckers. I don’t remember what they were called but I rembember eating these when I was about 6 so this had to be around 2002/2003.There were four flavors and they were shaped like the heads of the wrestlers. I remember Kane, the rock, stone cold, and the undertaker being in the set. They were different colors one was green and the others were blue and red I remember them being sour and delicious. But I could never find them again. Does anybody remember these?

From what I can see they are called Spin Pops. I can only find pics of Austin and Taker.

And the lollipop had the head of the wrestler not the torso. They came in like a pack of 12. I remember the box having the wwf logo on it. But they also could’ve been a knockoff. |

Bringing this up again I’ve had no luck finding em maybe someone can help me. If u look up wwf headbusters you’ll see the case they come in. That was similar to the box these lollipops came in. I saw these around 01-02 they could’ve been release as early as 1999

Man, you just had me looking all over the waybackmachine, archive.org in general, google images, etc... There is literally nothing out there with info about these. I can find just about anything random that is wrestling-related, usually because somewhere, anywhere, someone is trying to resell the product (even if it's a box meant for jellybeans with an Easter theme and Hulk Hogan on the cover, from the freaking '80s). I'm guessing you may have picked up some knock-off type of item during the craze of the attitude era... I remember finding bootleg WWF figures at goodwill types of stores back then. Surely some off-brand or Japanese candy maker may have made something like this. As far as finding it goes, I have no idea where to even look after the first 3 places I named.
I also found the spinners, but that's all I could find. Are you from the US? I don't know if it would have mattered, since I search archive.org anyway...but I'm curious about these now.
I remember a lot of random WWF candy and ice cream and promotions like that...but I don't remember this. Was it something you bought at a Blockbuster at checkout maybe? Or a gas station? Places like that... JJ Peppers...etc.... even the dollar store. You could find a lot of bootlegged or off-brand WWF stuff back then without even looking too hard. Wrestling was basically peaking around '99. My favorite (and I'm sure many others agree) were those WWF Ice Cream bars... the original ones. I think they brought them back for awhile, but I remember getting Sable way after she had been released from the company the first time around, so I'm guessing they made and had frozen a lot of those things.
If these lollis were released under the name of WWE that could be why I have no luck finding anything, but it would seem to me that these would have the WWF moniker...

never seen or heard of them. Where are you from, i dont think this was a USA product. Im from Nevada. I found these in a grocery market here in my town that has since closed. Couldn’t have been older than 02 since the case still had the wwf logo I found them around that time. There seems to be other candy that I’ve found like wwf gum and wwf gummies but no luck on the lollipops |

They tasted so good I ate the whole case with my cousins in a day. I’ve been thinking of checking out newspapers ads or wwf magazines. The lollipop had a regular lollipop stick attached to the wrestlers bust like their head. The Kane and Austin were red cherry flavored taker was green and rock was blue |

And there’s other candies out there like the wwf gummies and the wwf gum it’s similar to the way the lollipops were packed in |

It sounds very much like Hispanic product and you were close enough to the border for it to be one. |

Could be the owner was a Hispanic women and she owned a clothing store next to the market that sold some bootleg wwf shirts, but they also had official wwf merch like those monster trucks with the figure inside. |

I was very very active in wwe collecting and whatnot during the time you mentioned. like someone said before, if it was out there we'd find it or would have known about it. |

There was only one other person I talked to that remembers these. I won’t give up on the hunt I will find them and I will eat them even if they’re stale and moldy. |

If I ever seen these I don’t remember them….I do remember having a gift pack called “SnackDown” with mugs, cocoa & some kinda popcorn, probably from around the same time frame as the candy mentioned here

Anybody remember the those “juice” bottles that came in a 6 or 12 pack? Every time we’d go to the grocery store I always wanted to pick up a pack.

The only ones I remember were from I believe warheads or a similar manufacture. I think they might of been made by the people who made pop rocks. They were WCW lollipops with a fizz coating. Maybe someone else remembers these. I remember Bryan Adams being one of the guys on the cover.
