Return of the Jedi Burger King Glass Commercial

[syahrulreza]

I still have these.. :D

[GhettoBlaster100]

I wish BK sold shot glasses today =(

[a2r1v1i2s]

damn a whopper sounds good right about now.  I love watching old commercials while lifted for some reason. that just how i roll i guess.

[jayce79]

I had a couple of these when I was a kid. 

[prisonernumber24601]

My sister has a set of these.

[misjif2341]

Mommy! If I get these cups, I can be a Jedi! :O

[joeybuddy96]

These are totally canon.

[tonyvar12345]

holly crap i remember having these

[TheJediCharles]

0:16 A Cola-Fighter?

[AFiestOfFriends]

I've got the one with Jabba and Leia on it. I let the guests use it while I drink out of my Indiana Jones glass.

[ku42]

i got the cinderella one.

[Blackdragon52k]

Fast food and Star Wars......Every nerds dream......

[KillSwitch2]

I'm looking at all 4 of these glasses sitting on top of my desk right now, haha. I collect all this shit, also have all the Burger King Lord of the Rings glasses when Fellowship of the Ring was released.

[TheSkywalker72]

I still have mine!!



[toxtxot]

I have BOBA FETT!!!!!

[Pattonfrodo]

I have all 4 !

[katanaburner]

My brother got them back in the day saying that they will be worth something later. I hate it when he's right.

[dukeofcrydee]

@katanaburner That depends on your definition of "worth something". If he meant that they would be so heavily produced that they would be worth nearly what he paid for them, then yeah, your brother was a genius. (overinflated greedy Buy It Now auctions aside).

[trans8010]

@dukeofcrydee The only ones that are worth anything are the plastic cups sold in Massachusetts. There was some law back then prohibiting glass in fast food promotions, so all cups were plastic, I once saw an ebay auction with a complete set of 4 go for as much as 70 USD.

[dukeofcrydee]

@trans8010 Thanks for this, I never heard of that and did a little research. I'll be damned but it's true! Star Wars collecting is so huge, there's always something to learn. Wish I could find pics of them.

[trans8010]

@dukeofcrydee There's two auctions on ebay right now just type Jedi plastic glass Burger King

[rayban5016]

@katanaburner I actually had them when I was a kid. I wish I still did.

[Joker80808]

anybody wanna trade?

[Anarchist86ed]

Gawd damn such nostalgia.

[BradleyMitch81]

I still have those in my cabinet

[iJackyKnoff]

Too bad Return of the Jedi sucked big huge dick. Empire Strikes back FTW!

[scottpreuph]

I didn't know Darth Vader's Tie Fighter was sponsored by Coca Cola

[radix9523]

My dad had one of these and apparently I broke it when I was a wee lad. Everytime I bring it up he just glazes over..I'm pretty sure he's suppressing the urge to snap my neck.

[22centman36]

@radix9523 that glass is probably worth 20,000 dollars now, man

[dukeofcrydee]

@TrapEffectMusic Nah, Jabba was cool back in the day. Trap doors, Carrie Fisher in a metal bikini and smacking around C-3PO. He's no Jar Jar.

[elricmb]

@dukeofcrydee HEY...I like C-3PO(goes to room and eats stale C-3P-O's)

[MalnourishedGoat]

@dukeofcrydee Yeah, but he's not exactly appetizing. A good glass for someone who wants to lose weight. Every time they make a move for their beverage, one look at Jabba and they automatically lose interest in finishing their meal- partly because he's revolting, partly because his bloated appearance serves as a warning of what they may become if they keep scarfing down burgers. Ewoks on the other hand are appetizing. I wanted to eat an ewok as a kid. I still do. They look so delicious!

[mattPrince0darkness]

i'm gonna go back in time and buy every single effing glass!!

[dukeofcrydee]

@mattPrince0darkness No need man. eBay's got complete sets of 4 for (at most) $20 all the time.

[Zombiepull]

@mattPrince0darkness make this. but buy me some apple share´s when u are there ^^

[NickMichalak]

I still have three of these! I swear I even have glasses from EMPIRE!

[kotor87]

Damn, I was born too late. :(

[Game1ngAssass1n]

I found these glasses at my local antique store. I brought some!

[DarthAzmul]

Why is there a Cylon Basestar with the burger king logo at the end of a bk star wars commercial?

[PETERBILT281DUEL]

...and JABA DA HOTT!!!

[xDanielx2016]

eBaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!

[slave2moonlight]

MAN! I think I had ALL of these, and my stinkin' family broke them one at a time! I might still have that "Han Solo" one in my room somewhere, packed away. I need to get these back off Ebay eventually.

[Johnlindsey289]

@slave2moonlight

Yes they made good collectable items and i have a few at my mom's house.

[FiendsInRedSatin1]

I had the Jabba the Hutt one. It's too bad they used the absolute worst quality glass to make those. Mine broke after only a couple of uses.

[dukeofcrydee]

@FiendsInRedSatin1 Yet you can find dozens of sets of them on eBay on any given day. Did you wash yours with rocks?

[FiendsInRedSatin1]

@dukeofcrydee I wonder how many of those on Ebay were actually used by kids and how many were put away by adult collectors. Mine went into the sink to be washed in hot water and promptly shattered.

[prospectus91]

@FiendsInRedSatin1

You're better off.  Saw a recent news story that those glasses contain cadmium and lead.

[TheAltair4]

My brother and i both collected all 4 glasses as kids. I still have the Jabba glass and my brother still has the Luke and Han Solo glasses.

[Johnlindsey289]

@TheAltair4

Same here my brother has them including my mother

[Johnlindsey289]

I have one of the glasses at my mom's house and i believe i did saw this movie when i was 2 years old when it came out as my big brother did saw this movie 3 times in theaters when it came out and got a few of the glasses.

[genesislordofdarknes]

how the hell did they fit jabba the hut on a glass?

[bobadork]

yes, burger king is actually a cylon battlestation! by your command baltar!

[poopsmell65]

Ha. I had several as a child. I bet those things were covered in lead paint...

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go to my horse's coronation ceremony.

[MajCinematic]

I actually think I had one of those when I was little.

[AngstRiddenAnnoyance]

I have them all, mint condition never used xD

What can i say? A fat family

[Totaly14]

huh? Luke Skywalker and Han Solo glasses, yeah ok cool. But The ewoks and Jabba glasses??? Why not Darth Vader and stormtroopers?

[Mcrlover2death]

they have lead in them. lol

[theaznfishy]

It scares me that I have one of these cups [the luke with the light saber] and it's age is order than me.

[marscaleb]

I wonder if some day the commercial for those LOTR glasses will look as dumb as this...

[marscaleb]

I mean at least with the Star Trek glasses they sold in 2009 they were actually being funny on purpose.

Heh heh, the King-ons.

[neoanakinpotter]

I actually have 2 of those. The Ewok glass & the Han Solo glass.

The Ewok one has a chip in it. The Han Solo glass hasn't been touched.  My parents put it in a safe back in 1986. I only found out about it 2 years ago. when they told me...I said "Put that mother BACK in the safe!" and there it'll stay. until the time is right.

As for this commercial...reminds me of my childhood. Long live the 80's!!!!

[dukeofcrydee]

@neoanakinpotter Wait. Why is your glass in a safe!? It's worth like $8. They're constantly on eBay.

[TestSubject14]

@dukeofcrydee HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[IAmTheEvilMonkey]

@neoanakinpotter Those glasses held up. We had the Jabba one when I was a kid and it was used all of the time, put through the dishwasher and was still around when I was in high school, still in great shape but I think it ended up in a garage sale or something. Ah well.

[RichYan33]

@neoanakinpotter Your parents don't have a 401K do they?

[jayce79]

I miss those glasses.

[supermandisco]

ONLY appearing on EBAY.

[prisnexus6]

You didnt get the glass for just the price of the drink. If you bought a drink you could then purchase the glass for its own price. Think it was only a couple bucks though.

[skullvomit666]

I remember getting these... I remember them giving out Stars Wars stickers or stamps around 1982 or 83 too.

[Bandaids4ever]

What, no cadmium? PFT! Rip off. <_<

[MezupK]

Thats cool

[klr181979]

they should have made 1 of Chewy!!

[Mysterwright]

Haha, ok so the original franchise was sponsored by Coca-Cola and the recent prequels were sponsored by Pepsi. Maybe if the prequels were also sponsored by Coca-Cola or were re-released as a Special Edition sponsored by Coke now, people would have a better response to the entire franchise. =P

[pakau]

80's capitalism propaganda

[AirHendrix91]

Because Jabba and the Ewoks weren't cool enough for an introduction.

[101Volts]

Great, I watched another commercial at like 12:57 AM when I should be sleeping. But anyway, That's really cool that Burger King would give away cool glasses with a soda. Dang, Sometimes one wishes they had a time machine to see things. Doggone it, I'm in the 80s nostalgia zone and I wasn't born until 1991! I really should get to sleep... NOW....

[doctorwhoobawooba]

Who'd want an Ewok glass? O_o

The Jabba one looks awesome though!

[stonelenny]

The real "Flying Hamburger"!! Life imitates art imitating life LOL

[42whatelse]

What a great 1983 Burger King Return of the Jedi Burger King Glass Commercial.

And its a treasure you could find it on the theft stores and antiques stores as your Star Wars treasure collations for your bring back the classics for our memoirs!

[mertdejedi]

Why not Darth Vader Glass instead of Jabba the Hutt..... Jabba is an anoying character in my opinion..... Darth Vader Pwns him.

[GoingSupernova]

i had all of these. damn dishwasher washed the images off of them

[unconteur]

how the hell do the ewoks get precedence on Solo??

[garageman1989]

how old is this commercial?

[mertdejedi]

Old.

[TimTE01]

Those glasses are still totally in the cupboard. No, we don't use them either. Now our Darth Vader phone, however, is totally out of the box!

[lowaces]

i definitly remember having empire strikes back glasses from burger king

[000dj0jred000]

someone should add the burger king space station at the end of the comercial into a future special edition,...

[Smartboy8877]

@000dj0jred000

I did not know that there was a Burger King Space Station. Do you care to explain what exactly it is?

[Smartboy8877]

@000dj0jred000

Having watched the video a couple more times, I think I may have figured out what the Space Station is. Is it the floating structure with the Burger King logo seen at the end of the commercial?

[tonyvar12345]

@000dj0jred000

Sure lucas is working on that for the next bluray super special edition

[patton303]

No clue what happened to mine but I know I had had two or three of em'.

I also remember hating this commercial because the sound effects were all wrong.....

What a dumbass nerd kid......

[Xardueth]

As do I :)

[jar0fdirt63]

i still have mine!

[jamesgravil]

God look at that picture quality.

[GodschildJCE]

oh yea i had em too lost em in 68

[lizwicker28]

I have all of them like 5 sets of them, my gram had them and gave them to my sis and i ...

[jeff88bell]

i had these glasses when i was a kid; have no idea what ever happened to them

[80something]

Still got mine. Got them in 83.  Never used them.

[XHXDX]

I treated these things like complete shit when I was a kid, so much so I'm sure they went in the trash at some point.

I still have some cool things from when I was a kid though.

[justicelord]

I had them all, lost them in a fire in '93.

[abrahamWCE]

bad, no darth vader or leia glasses

[noobland2008]

mm imagine how rare they would be. we got a beauty and the beast glass mug from like the 90's.

[cartoonking3]

when was this commercial??

[dukeofcrydee]

1983

[GreenRiver72]

yo we had the Ewok one! ... until my aunt decided to pour hot coffee in it, circa 1992 :-(

[TheUpperRoom477]

I MUST HAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AncientLand]

ebay

[goonboat]

OMG i remember those glasses

[StarWarsMedia]

I gunna buy them online....... right now... yes I am I am going to do it

[Chubachus]

they shoulda made 3 more films in the late 80s early 90s!!!

[acer3573]

I still *had* one of these glasses (C3PO) up until recently....actually I think it was from ESB....

[chopface96]

This Comerciel Was Better Than The Star Wars Christmas Special! :-)

[scutter28]

the star wars christmas special introduced us to boba fett before the empire strikes back came out G..so, uh..dont knock it lol...the wookie family was a bit much especially the grandma wookie lol

[Leonardus18]

fuckkkkkkkkk i want oneeeeeeeeeeeee

[shubzi]

"AND JABBA THE HUT!"

[cfjackson123]

Ha the ewoks got a glas too classic.

[beetlesqausher223]

ONLY APPEARING AT BURG...

[DMaustrap]

I have all 4 of these still are they worth anything? I wouldn't mind selling them. I just need a good price, i also have the Empire glasses too.

[youngrebels75]

I saw them at an atbique shop for a reasonable price but certainly more than they were worth 25 years ago. I actually remember when these came out. I had the one with Luke and the Emperor - or as we called him back then, "that wrinkley faced man"

[bobafettfan32]

what u want 4 them i use 2 have them God what happen 2 the days of these kinda of promos.

[heine71]

Jackson Beck is the voiceover in this commercial.

[djxtasyjr]

jebus how old is that??? damn.. i didnt realise how young i am untill i watched this and saw that everyone but me actually admitted to having the glasses, lol. they should bring them back...id buy one, or two, or five...

[jedijones]

They did bring 'em back, Target sold plastic versions with action figures a couple years back. The art might have been different but it was the same style and covered the new movies as well. Search on eBay and may the Force be with you.

[specterkev]

had all four unfortuanlty none of them survived over the years :(

[coolmike1989]

Thanks for uploading!

[gusbaker4u]

the only thing cooler than that commercial is that I have all those glasses and they're worth millions of dollars each, or 50 cents at your local flea market.

[oceanbelow]

There worth about 5 a pop. I bought them all back in '99 but broke them all.

[neddx]

Poor bastards couldn't afford to use the original Star Wars music

[Nemie125]

OMG - my brother used to collect those!!

[bforbes999]

You know, McDonald's did the same thing with "Shrek The Third".

[aquagurl27]

aiyo, those copiers...

[mokkshaa]

omg...I lost mine! I had luke and darth...damn...i miss that little piece of my childhood!

[doozi]

hahaha...i still have all of my glasses

[jcraig1977]

[glovesaver]

[dukeofcrydee]
