I just saw this on ebay - I didn't know Pepsi was doing another promotion with lifesize characters. I wonder if they will do more than just Yoda again?
Didn't they make a Maul, Jar-Jar, and Yoda for TPM?
Sure would be nice to snag one of these in a sweepstakes or something...I tried forever to win the BlockBuster Yoda when TPM hit....to no avail.

That would be an awesome item to own, very cool. I also really want the R2-D2 cooler (yes Dale, the one Bob won >:() that Pepsi put out a while ago. I like large display items, but so often they're expensive or the shipping is prohibitive.

That Yoda is pretty cool. PEPSI STAR WARS YODA LIFE SIZE (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=98027&item=6524797929&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW)
Bob has that R2 just sitting in his collection room empty, better if it had beer in it. ;)

Blashphemy >:(

I saw this....gotta have it!!!
I have never been too excited over the lifesize. Between the size and room I need to display them....and how much they cost once they make it to the secondary market, I have not been too interested.
but this one I will have to try hard to hunt down.
Looks 100 times better than any previous lifesize Yoda that anybody has done before.

The R2 Cooler is back.
Wal*Mart has them.
I want this Yoda.

Really? Great, hopefully that will drive the price back down and I can find one closer to home.

I've seen the R2 coolers at a couple different Wal-Marts lately too. One also had the life-size Yoda on display, but instead of having 'Pepsi' on the base like the one in the picture a few posts up, it had the EpIII logo on it. (which is an improvement in my opinion)

I won one of these through a promotion at my local Publix Supermarket. It was something you had to mail in for, Pepsi will be shipping him to my house within a couple of weeks!
Also won one of the new R2 coolers from Kmart a couple of weeks ago. Perhaps I should buy a lotto ticket! ;D Feeling rather lucky!
-
Very nice Sharon.
No draw around here for the Yoda, though I have seen it and it's great.
The draws for the R2 cooler have not gone yet either, so I'm hoping for that still.
-
Gotta love it when luck is on your side!
Anyone have a picture of the new Life-size Yoda? All I can find is the Episode 1 version.
-
This is an auction for the one Sharon is talking about (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=98027&item=6536625321&rd=1) I'd suggest it might even be a little bigger than life size. It was elevated when I saw it (yes, I was tempted to walk out with it, it looked unsecured) but I think it was a little over 2 feet tall.
Very, very nice and I am very jealous.
-
Wow! Jealous is right.
This is 10 times better than the Episode 1 version. I LOVE action poses for statues.

That is so awesome! Nice job Sharon. :D
-
That Yoda is beautiful. Congratulations. :)
-
Wow, that's a sweet prize to win there Sharon! The R2 cooler as well. Congrats! 8)
As for the lottery tickets, well, you've got some of those on the way soon too, so perhaps your luck will indeed continue. Won't find out 'til you send my your addy though. ;)

Here is a pic of my new prize:

This lifesize Yoda is about 70 pounds, more like a lifesize statue. Gentle Giant Studios did the sculpt for this piece, so I keep him displayed with all the GG statues & mini busts. The GG collectibles have really enhanced my love of collecting SW, it would be nice to see them do more pieces like this.
A big Thanks to Pepsi & Publix, their sweepstakes were honest and fair.
Yoda was delivered via Fed Ex right to my front door. In fact, box would NOT fit in the front door of my house. Had to remove him and leave the box outside.
Good times!
BTW, Thanks for the hook up Matt! I'll split the loot if one of those tickets is a winner! ;)
-
Congrats Sharon, an awesome piece in a good home.
I really want one of those, but too much to pay for that. I'm trying to track down the ones that were around here locally, but no luck so far. Hoping someone knows someone at Pepsi locally.
-
:o
Wow, he looks incredible! Colour me green with envy. ;)
By the way, it looks like Yoda just finished decapitating a Clone Trooper. ;D

Yes, thought you guys would enjoy that.... ;D

That's very cool, Sharon! 8)
But did you have to include that damned Riddell Stormtrooper helmet in the picture just to taunt me?!? >:(
