Heinz Ketchup Ship

Sorry about the very end. Basically they tell you that they'll send you a plastic toy ketchup bottle that transforms into a space ship with proofs of purchase or something.

Too funny! I have the original heinz transformer bottle. It was used in the shoot/commercial. Man, it's been sitting in a box for 25 years! Anybody wanna buy it? I have the original battery!

@adguy1958 it was battery-powered??

I got one of those ketchup spaceships off of EBay for like $10.00 (and $5.00 s&h). It's a Christmas present for my husband.

Granted it was the ONLY one I found on eBay, but the price is right and is in it's original box.

Now to look for this ketchup bottle robot....

Recently, i went to a toy show as well and tried to find this for a friend of mine. NO ONE had it! This thing is Ultra Rare it seems! My friend reminded me of it with this commercial and i was like, Oh Man, that Does bring back memories! LOL :) The 80's was the coolest decade ever! All kids now days know is Star Wars & Transformers. IF they only knew what we had! LOL Go-Bots, Voltron, Stompers, etc..

Hey! I remember this commercial! I still have that bottle!!! : )

I wanted the one that had legs that folded out though, but I don't think they made that one.

That kid looks familiar... was he ever in anything else?

oh man... I saw one of those Heinz spaceships at a collectibles show about 12 years ago and wanted it SOOO badly. $200!!

I've been trying to find pics of it again ever since. Do you have the end with the offer??

There's a glass Heinz bottle on every table at the Johnny Rocket's Burger chain, where the waitstaff have been trained to know how to shake it out of the bottle for the customers. ; )

there was a sequel to the "Galactic Battle Burger" that took place on some alien planet.

Whatever happened to it?

I hounded my mother incessantly for one of those spaceships. Never got one.
