Re: G1 Pepsi Prime Contest
I actually won this contest. The right side of Optimus was printed I abundance while the left was rare. I had many right halves and one day my mother brought home a bottle of Pepsi with that weeks groceries, we looked under the cap and there it was: a left half. I think I was 10 and my brother was 6 at the time, you shoulda seen two boys absolutely freak out.
One of our parents friends worked at the Pepsi bottling plant and picked up one of the Optimus Primes for us. Of course, this friend of my parents lived about 60 km away and they only visited each other three or four times a year. Finally, after months (or what seemed like months) we got it.
It had a Pepsi logo on each side of the trailer as well as the back door.
We were boys and we used Optimus in many "battles" and his condition suffered accordingly. I actually had it untill 2000 when I finally threw out the remains. Trust me, there was nothing left to salvage.
