Star Wars Collection

Someone sent an article to me a month ago or so.  It was an ad showing a new 30-can Star Wars set coming from Coca-Cola, each featuring a different character.

Pepsi did this in 1999 when The Phantom Menace came out.  You can read about my adventure with that here in this post.

There have been other Star Wars tie-ins also.  But these cans look really good, especially being red and black.


My first can is Kylo Ren.  I would love to have the whole collection, but I just don't have the time or patience for that kind of collecting now.  And I don't drink soda, so I can't just go out and buy a bunch of packs.

So I'll sit back and use the Force to will some more of them to come to me.  I wonder what a midi-chlorian flavored soda would taste like.

Ice Cream Sundae

I was surprised to see this can when my son brought it home one evening.

It's the first Ice Cream Sundae flavored soda in my collection.  I think.  And I love how the top of the can looks like it's dripping with chocolate.  I asked if it was good, he said it's ok.  Maybe not as good as a root beer float.

Definitely a neat idea.  And a neat can.

Newest Ski

Ski doesn't change their can design very often, so it's always exciting when I see a new one.


And that's what happened this week when I saw this can at someone's house.  I asked if I could have the can when they were done, received the usual confused looked from them, and then my collection was one can bigger.

It may be a while, but I'll be watching for their next design.
