Mint Sensations.... Anyone seen any???

Remember those sweets Mint Sensations? A dome shaped hard sweet, mint flavour like a murray mint, with chocolate inside? They were in a green wrapper and sold by the quarter and in bags. I can't find any anywhere, do they still make them? Has anyone seen any for sale, or does anyone rember who makes them.

I have a real craving for some, if anyone can get me some or tell me where they sell them, I'd be very grateful. Warrington or St Helens even better!!
Thanks

    Have found these, they are not Mint Sensations, but they are Chocolate Mints.

    I've a hunch that Needlers (the Manufacturers) either went out of business or were bought over as I've hunted (without success) for their Fruit Sensations range.

    I remember these!
    "Unwrap a Sensation from Needlers,
    They're two great sweets in one,
    And beneath that crispy coating,
    They're a flavour full of fun."

    Ahhh, they don't write them like that anymore. I visited the factory once, we could eat as many sweets as we could carry! Oh those were the days...
