[–]Jim808 65 points66 points ago

I feel as though the Jupiter lollipop should be about 1000 times larger than the Earth pop, and the Sun pop should be 1000 times larger than the Jupiter one.

[–]ceandros 4 points5 points ago

You could just have a very little Earth one.

[–]PatForVendetta 13 points14 points ago

Agreed. These aren't even to scale.

[–]Valkie 57 points58 points ago

You won't find me licking Uranus though.

[–]KillerCujo53 23 points24 points ago

If it has a bubble gum center I will.

[–]Kensin 17 points18 points ago

sorry, just chocolate

[–]sealpoacher 2 points3 points ago

Chocolate tootsie lollipops.

[–]puripurihakase 10 points11 points ago

I just popped in to see if anyone had made a Uranus joke yet. Thank you.

[–]Z0bie 13 points14 points ago

That's some expensive candy. And only in two flavors, and you can only choose one flavor per order? Meh.

Looks cool though, I'll give you that.

[–]tekufah98 25 points26 points ago

Yeah, seriously, it's 17 bucks a pop... AHAHAHAHAHA

[–]FlailStorm 13 points14 points ago

Looks like it is per 10 pops, but then the shipping is nearly 20 friggin bucks. Way too expensive.

[–]RyanGee 10 points11 points ago

I can see no one else justifying the price unless they were doing something specifically child geared and space themed.

That being said I'm currently teaching the solar system to 2nd graders and will probably buy these cool lil things for prizes of some sort.

[–]Muscar 4 points5 points ago

They're hand made, probably one or two persons doing it at home, high demand is hard to deal with.

[–]electricmice 1 point2 points ago

it's the gift factor. this is a really cool novelty gift. space is hot right now. gotta cash in on it.

[–]electricmice 7 points8 points ago

shipping cost $13, lol.

[–]TranscendTheIllusion 3 points4 points ago

I want these but to scale. haha

[–]theseekerofbacon 3 points4 points ago

Only 8

:-(

[–]yentlequible 7 points8 points ago

Actually, the seller includes Pluto and the Sun with the order for a total of 10.

[–]dpjames 4 points5 points ago

RIP Pluto.

[–]holyice7 13 points14 points ago

No...no, this isn't right.

If you scientists don't want it to be a planet, that's fine, but if you're not going to represent it any more, at least do us all the courtesy of blowing it up.

[–]SimonsPure 2 points3 points ago

Relevant

[–]brinoceros 0 points1 point ago

These look more stylish than lollipops. Unfortunately I can't read the page.

[–]brinoceros 1 point2 points ago

Translated the page, looks like these would be about $50 for a set of 9 balls. Fancy for sure though.

[–]Miss_Bee 0 points1 point ago

I was just thinking about those. mmm

[–]BarfingBear 0 points1 point ago

Good choice of flavors. Now if only I had money to burn.

[–]howtogiggle101 2 points3 points ago

planets are like a box of chocolate...

[–]andrewsmith1986 0 points1 point ago

I'd just bite into them anyway.

[–]Jackstick 1 point2 points ago

Saturn got the bottom-feeder treatment.

[–]staffell 2 points3 points ago

Well Saturn is a let down.

[–]Kensin 1 point2 points ago

should have been a ring pop

[–]winnar72 -1 points0 points ago

I was hoping for the candy to look like the planets and not just the wrappers.

[–]Shadow6363 4 points5 points ago

It is the candy... What you're seeing isn't wrapped.

[–]winnar72 -1 points0 points ago

Is it painted/printed on? I would love to see the candy itself be the planets. Lots of potential awesome there.

[–]legom7 0 points1 point ago

OP linked to the international shipping section. Here's the link for US orders: www.etsy.com/listing/108838998/planets-solar-system-space-ball-style

[–]FabulousLastWords 1 point2 points ago

Real quality job on Saturn there.

[–]ArMcK 0 points1 point ago

They're not even in order.

[–]sgtblast -1 points0 points ago

It'd be way cooler if they were to scale.

[–]chingchonghat 0 points1 point ago

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a planet?

[–]amysaurus 1 point2 points ago

Is Pluto rejection-flavored?

[–]B4low -1 points0 points ago

where's pluto?

[–]boywithantlers 0 points1 point ago

Theysould sell all of these, and it should come with one of those huge jaw breakers that looks like the sun!

[–]carbonxe 0 points1 point ago

The Saturn one just doesn't make any sense.

[–]iJulesWinnfield 0 points1 point ago

I wonder what Uranus taste like.

[–]Kensin 1 point2 points ago

hint: it's a tootsie pop

[–]avp574 -2 points-1 points ago

Where the fuck is Pluto?? After all those years as a planet they just throw it away....

[–]FTFY2012 0 points1 point ago

Pluto is a penny chewy< sweet rules circa 2000

[–]julyjulyxx 1 point2 points ago

It comes in a set of 10 with the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. It just isn't pictured.

[–]avp574 -3 points-2 points ago

Phew, thank you for dousing my rage. It's nice to finally see some movement away from planet discrimination.

[–]CrudMuffins -1 points0 points ago

The seond time this week that i have seen something on facebook before i saw it on reddit.
