Ever wanted to eat sour candy out of a PSP-shaped tin case? Well, in about two months, you can. Online retailer Urban Collector has a pre-order listing for "PSP Sours" (pictured above) and will be selling 12-pack boxes for roughly $32. Although PSP Sours is an interesting concept, something tells us that it isn't an official, Sony-licensed product.
Anyway, let us know if you spot PSP Sours in your local grocery or convenience store. We want to know if they're any good -- and, more importantly, if the little candies are shaped like PSPs, too. Now that would be cool.
[Update: Actually, these candies are the real deal, a SCEA rep has confirmed with us. Apparently, the little candies inside are shaped like the face buttons: X, O, Square and Triangle.]

is $32 for 12-pack boxes too much??

well if you can sell them for 5 bucks each, that's 60 bucks a box. If they are metal tins and shaped like a PSP, probably could get that too.

reminds me of the mario mushrooms with sour candy inside of them. i hope they're not as hard to open as those though...

Those mushroom tins looked really cute... I was tempted to get one.....
This PSP candy reminds me of the Wii remote candy dispenser. I'd like it for the tin case, but I'd chuck out the candy (except for one sample of the face buttons each)

Saw these a few weeks ago at the Toys R Us on Moorland and Blue Mound in SE Wisconsin - my friend bought a few. They weren't half bad - but the case was pretty sweet!

I'll just eat the face buttons off my PSP. Same thing, right?

I got a NES controller tin with candy inside in Japan. The case is cool but i have yet to see anyone who hasn't choked and/ or spat them out, good for frenemies. These can only taste better.
