Yep, and didn't the folks at M&M's feel stupid after that?!?! Anybody ever hear of Reeces Pieces before E.T.?
Probably an 8-figure mistake on M&M's part.

Btw, I took that Universal studio tour once- back in the early 90's iirw. An integral part of the tour at that time was showing the technology that allowed them to film that great bicycle-flying scene. Talk about being disappointed. I remember saying to my wife "Are they telling me that ET couldn't really fly?". Bummer!
