I was sad to learn that this is something we will never see anymore...
It was around well into the 2000s... maybe even the 10s... but alas, it over. Some freaks are trying to sell a few packs on ebay for ridiculous amounts, but it just ain't worth it. I loved this stuff. It was that "special" candy my dad would bring home from work like twice a year. It was like gold to us.

Used to pop sen sen all the time back in the 70's and 80's. Great for killing smokers breath. Also mentioned in Billy Joel's Keeping the faith.
I didn't see this when I made my comment. But this is another thing we don't see anymore. A classy stylized music video.
I had a Univox amp circa 1974 with the exact same control layout, I wonder if it was the same guts on the inside?
Teisco made some amps and guitars under the Univox name through a deal with that company back then; so, it's very likely the same guts.

Okay I have this transistor radio we purchased it with the house many years ago. I had never seen one before or since I assumed it had a Horn and at one time I never found it the light crank on the side turns it on and adjusts volume runs off of 1 9v and it is still work an surprisingly load for it's size radio is the tuner
Not impossible to find but rare. Sometimes eBay and Amazon sell some but the price is very high!
LOL
I had a full blown setup back in the day. Texas Instruments TI99/4A
You traded your house for a radio?
Now that's what I call dedicating yourself to music!
This is what my XT clone looked like, more or less. Amber monitor, not color. 512k memory and a 20 meg hard drive. 5.25” floppy.
no it came with the house it was in the basement when we purchased the house ha ha ha
