The first of three Limited Edition tubes, apparently showing
different ways of opening them. With this one, you punch them. Hmmm. Best

Another set of three tubes. Looks like a Haloween theme.

lids. This is the joke on the first tube; WHAT IS THE FIRST THING A MONSTER EATS AFTER IT HAS HAD

Remember the GRUESOME GREENIES? Here's another tube for what becomes a recurring theme...alien infested tubes. These ones have cute
names though...ZOCK, BABOK, YOZ and SMORG. You could send off for glow in the dark
models of these SMARTIANS with 10 special tokens and 80pence. See them here. I also have a few of the special tube lids. Check them
out. I also have examples of SMARTIAN
SMARTIES! Tubes at this time cost 27 pence. BEST BEFORE 01/01/96 |

Another tube FULL of orange smarties. This time the tube features some cool looking
orange smartie dudes. Best before 01/04/1996.

This is the last time we see the brown standard tubes. There
is nothing spectacularly different with this tube compared to the one seen on page one
from 1993. The main differences are on the reverse of the tube, where all the
information panels have been moved around. Best before 1 JUN 96. |

This is a standard tube, but it has a new look. The word
'smarties' is designed to appear as if it's made of chocolate. I have a few foreign
tubes that also bear a similar design. Best before 01/07/1996. |
