The Star Wars cup mystery

0:00All I keep finding are what people say

0:02who have it on eBay. Is that really

0:03that? Hold on. So then you got the

0:05Millennium Falcon.

0:07That's all right.

0:11>> How does it know that?

0:13>> It knows. AI is telling you what it is

0:15based off of

0:16>> The image that Yeah, yeah.

0:17>> what the seller is saying it is. And

0:19that's wrong. If anybody knows anything

0:21about it,

0:22he probably does.

0:25Do you want to know what's really cool?

0:27>> What's really cool?

0:28>> Star Wars cups.

A sleeve of strange cups

0:29>> You're right.

0:30>> So a guy walked in with a sleeve of

0:31these. I spent like three or four hours,

0:34maybe five or six hours, trying to

0:35figure this out. Because then you're

0:36like, oh, Return of the Jedi Coca-Cola.

0:39It's got to be, I don't know, 7-Eleven,

0:42a movie theater. Like what is it?

0:45But then it says 1985.

0:47And I was like, well, Jedi came out in

0:49'83.

0:51So why is it Jedi and it's '85?

Why does it say 1985?

0:54But then the figures here,

0:56some Imperial Dignitary or pop-up R2.

0:59You know, so A-wing,

1:02so you know, Luke poncho. So then if you

1:04look here, grand prize, it was a Star

1:06Wars toy collection.

1:08First prize is that ride-on speeder

1:10bike. So it was like a big wheel speeder

1:12bike that you could win, which is

1:14really, really rare. And then I don't

1:16know, then just second prize you get an

1:17action figure, you know, not a big deal.

1:19Third prize you get a poster. So when I

The prizes hidden on the cup

1:21Google this, all I keep finding

1:24are what people say who have it on eBay.

1:26So it's Jawa, Kenobi, stormtrooper So

1:29you got stormtrooper. So yeah, we just

1:31didn't have Leia in there. Is that all

1:33we were missing? 2 4 6 7 7 8

1:379 10.

1:39Yeah, so there was 10 10 10 were in the

1:41case. We just didn't have uh Kenobi and

1:44Leia. And Leia's I just don't have clean

1:46Leia's and Kenobi's I don't have sabers.

1:48>> Uh so

1:50Kenobi's [clears throat]

1:51the saber.

1:52>> I mean, I have a million

1:54nice Kenobi's. It's like he didn't get

1:56played with as hard as

1:58some of the other stuff.

2:00But like C-3PO's tough.

2:03Like this one's stiff.

2:05Like normally

2:06>> Yeah, they

2:07>> He's He's, you know.

2:09>> No, he looked good.

2:09>> So, he's tight and clean. So, that's

2:13usually

2:14It's cuz I mean you're paying top dollar

2:16for that one. I mean, this one I've sold

2:19some of these higher, but it's pretty

2:21white.

2:22You know, so it's in good shape.

2:25The Vader

2:26It's clean. It's nice. You know, got a

2:28little bit of a curling. It's just the

2:30sabers are getting tough.

2:33And this is a pretty decent R2.

2:3560 bucks. I mean, good chrome. Pretty

2:38white sticker.

2:41But yeah, the Lukes

2:43are real short.

2:45Even the Chewy's real nice. Look at the

2:47nice

2:48eyes.

2:51Cuz usually the bandolier, this is all

2:52going to be worn.

2:55This paint will be worn off. So, I mean,

2:57these are just really

2:59But I mean, for it to go in the case,

3:00it's got to be nice. That really that?

3:02Hold on.

3:05>> [snorts]

3:06>> Is it really real?

3:07>> Well, it seemed a little high. So, let

3:08me uh

3:09>> Well, it is vintage.

Pricing the Star Wars haul

3:10>> Yeah, but it's not that many figures

3:11here. And you wanted to put down how

3:13much?

3:14>> What's the total?

3:15>> It's 590.

3:21Oh, you're just going to grab it?

3:22>> I'll just grab it.

3:22>> 550.

3:24>> Sold.

3:24>> Take it. Take it now. Take it now price.

3:27Boom.

3:28That's how we do it here. But you know,

3:30there's Luke Stormtroopers not on here.

3:32But anyway, so I'm Googling this and

3:33people are saying

3:35Kenner cuz it does say Kenner

3:38sweepstakes

3:40final 17. Not last 17, final 17.

Why the internet got it wrong

3:44Uh

3:47But the information on eBay is only as

3:49good as the person who put put it. So,

3:51if they don't know

3:52AI is feeding its pop

3:56AI is telling you what it is based off

3:58of

3:59>> The image that Yeah, yeah.

4:00>> what the seller is saying it is.

4:01>> Yeah.

4:02>> That's what they're referencing, and

4:03that's wrong.

4:04>> Yeah.

4:05>> So, then I'm researching, I'm

4:06researching, I'm researching.

4:09And then I remember there's this guy,

4:11this Gus Lopez.

4:13And that guy has like one of everything

4:14Star Wars.

4:16And he has this really good reference

4:18site. I think it's

4:20like the Star Wars Collectors Archive, I

4:22could be wrong. And I was like, if

4:23anybody knows anything about it,

4:26he probably does. So, he has

4:27>> the toothpick?

4:28>> Vader? No, no, that's that's Stephen

Searching the Collector’s Archive

4:30Sansweet.

4:30>> Okay. All right.

4:32>> Uh

4:33but I remember when I got my Star Wars

4:35pitch coin way, way, way back when I

4:37reached out to him.

4:38Uh and he answered. But he has like

4:40he catalogs everything.

4:42So,

4:44I go to his site, and then you could

4:45keyword search. So, I did Coca-Cola.

4:48And everything Coca-Cola would come up.

4:50And then there's a lot of Coca-Cola.

4:53And then I saw

4:54then I got to get Coca-Cola Return of

4:56the Jedi.

4:59And then I found this one image

5:02cuz I was like, how can I not find the

5:03solicitation or the thing advertising

5:05this promotion? What is this from?

5:08>> Yeah.

5:09>> The guy who sold it to me thought it was

5:11a popcorn bucket. And I was like,

5:12Coca-Cola is not going to make a popcorn

5:14bucket. Maybe they would, but that

5:15doesn't make sense to me. This is

5:17probably a large

5:18Coke.

5:19>> What it looks like to me.

5:20>> But now these are on eBay, and they're

5:22the skinnier cups.

5:23>> Right.

5:25>> So, this is probably the large cup.

5:26>> Right.

5:27>> Uh

5:28and then since the Power of the Force

5:30figures, these figures were in '85.

5:33>> Mhm.

5:34>> From what I'm realizing or reading, at

5:36least according to the internet, is that

5:37they re-released

5:39which I don't know if this is true, but

5:41they re-released Jedi in '85

5:45in a promotion of move this product, cuz

5:47see this line didn't do well.

5:48>> Yeah.

5:50So, would it this have been at like

5:51theaters?

5:52>> It's got to be.

5:53>> Yeah.

5:54>> But see, it

5:58I have a picture of the poster, cuz I

6:00screenshot it. So, this is the poster.

6:04I don't even know if we can see this as

6:05well.

The Coca-Cola/Kenner poster

6:08But this is the promotion

6:10for this contest.

6:13Now, where you would see this poster, I

6:14don't know.

6:16So, then it would says, "Win Star

6:18Coca-Cola

6:20Drink Coca-Cola and win Star Wars toys

6:22by Kenner. Match any So, there'd be a

6:24game piece on the bottom.

6:26There is no game piece here, but then

6:28it'll tell you

6:30there's a game piece on the bottom.

6:32But this is a whole sleeve. I doubt the

6:34guy So, I don't know if

6:37why they don't have a game piece.

6:40And the

6:41But then So, then the figures you got

6:45the grand prize, you got all the last 17

6:48figures

6:49plus some additional figures.

6:53Star Wars collection. See, I mean,

6:54there's

6:56you know, you Luke Stormtrooper, a man

6:58in a man, Lando General, Han in

7:00Carbonite.

7:02I don't see Yak Face. Do you see Yak

7:03Face?

7:05Probably not, cuz that wasn't released

7:06in America.

7:07>> Yeah.

7:07>> And then there's that goofy

7:10There's that goofy ride on.

7:12>> Yeah.

7:12>> So cool. Look at that kid. He's leaning

7:14forward.

7:15He's got his hat on.

7:18>> And you hung that from a a tree or

7:19something.

7:20>> figure, I don't know if you got Lando

7:21General or it's a a figure of their

7:23choosing. And then there there's the

7:24poster. Which this poster reminds me of

7:27that High-C poster

7:28that we used to have.

7:29>> Right there.

7:30Yeah, right.

7:31>> Oh, but it isn't. It's different.

7:33That's a different poster.

7:35>> But that's the Yeah, that one's the

7:36High-C. Yeah.

7:37>> Right.

7:38So, anyway,

7:39and And there's

7:41the cup

7:43with the arrow pointing down and then

7:44it'd be the circle down here.

Solving the mystery

7:48So at least I finally found something.

7:52Hello.

7:59It works.

8:08That does not work.

8:10Yes, so these are

8:14well played with.

8:20Well played with.

8:20>> Yes, sir.

Vintage Starbird and toy finds

8:33>> That's cool.

8:35Ooh, Starbird.

8:42So this is Milton Bradley Starbird.

8:46And

8:47you're just missing a little engine here

8:49and then there's a gun

8:50a little turret ball turret.

8:52>> And that actually still works. I put a

8:54battery in it last night. You know how

8:55you do it.

8:55>> Oh, and then the battery cover.

8:56>> Yeah, the battery cover.

8:57>> Yes, so then you hold it up and then it

8:59the escalation sound and then you go

9:00down and then it's

9:01>> No, it

9:02>> He [clears throat] demonstrated it for

9:03you last night.

9:03>> Yeah. Oh, yeah.

9:04>> I had this as a kid. I love this.

9:06And then the bad guy version's the

9:08Intruder and it's black, so then you got

9:09the Millennium Falcon.

9:14That's all right. These are very very

9:16sturdy pieces.

9:17>> Oh, yeah.

9:18>> Oh, so you do have the arm at least.

9:23If I can

9:24>> Now, what was that for? I never I never

9:25really knew what that was.

9:27>> So this is the training arm.

9:29There'd be a little string and a little

9:31disco ball.

9:32And that's how Luke practiced training

9:34when he had the visor on.

9:36>> I got you.

9:37>> He's like, "I can't see anything with

9:38the blast shield helmet on."

9:39>> Okay.

9:40>> And he's like, "You got to

9:41search your feelings."

9:42>> Okay.

9:44>> So, then these are usually broke, so

9:46those aren't broke.

9:49If I can get it off and that.

9:51>> Oh, yeah, I had to have those as a kid,

9:53no doubt.

9:54>> Come on, buddy.

9:57Trap door.

10:04I'm going to get it out. And then

10:06usually this is broke.

10:07>> Okay.

10:08>> So, that's not. So, yeah, your Falcon's

10:09in pretty good shape. $125.

10:13That's fine.

10:14I have this engine piece.

10:16>> Oh, good deal.

10:17>> I have the ball.

10:18>> Yeah, I was surprised that it still

10:19worked.

10:20But, these none of these I put batteries

10:22in these and they didn't work.

10:24>> Cuz this comes off.

10:25>> Yeah.

10:26>> And then you get to play with that. But,

10:32and then when you do

10:38It does.

10:40So, when you're a kid, you're just doing

10:41all this.

10:44>> And you press the button and it'll fire.

10:46>> I forget where the button is.

10:48>> I think it's right here.

10:54>> Yeah.

10:56So, you're you're the king of the block

10:57with this. So, then so then it was the

10:59Star Wars Collectors Archive, and that's

More clues from the deal

11:01the site I was referencing. And then

11:02when I typed Coca-Cola,

11:05I get all this.

11:07And that's where I went to United States

11:09Return of the Jedi.

11:13And then it was

11:15Coca-Cola Kenner Star Wars toy poster.

11:17And then there's that poster.

11:20So, at least that's the promotion for

11:21this. Again,

11:23was it anywhere Coca-Cola was sold?

11:24Like, could you go to Godfather's Pizza?

11:27Remember that?

11:28>> Yeah.

11:28>> You ever go to Godfather's Pizza? And

11:29then they had

11:30you got a large Coke, this is the cup

11:32they used, and you can win something.

11:33There was other stuff in this deal. I

11:35think it was five or six hundred bucks.

11:37But I got a Bigfoot, $6,000 man Bigfoot

11:39with no chest piece and the Venus spy

11:41probe.

11:42No, 700. It was 700.

11:45And the Venus probe is missing stuff.

11:48Uh, we got one in the box over there.

11:50Uh,

11:51but I was like,

11:52"I don't really know what they're

11:53worth."

11:55And he thought it was a popcorn bucket.

11:57I think I'm asking 30 bucks for them.
