Dr. Pepper's Lil" Sweet!

[Katers]

Ha - right?!

Well, it's not like we have anything else in our wardrobes!

Now this has me thinking that I also need a Lil' Sweet t-shirt...!

That. Would. Be. AMAZING.

Of course, it has to be pop Lil' Sweet - nothing else will do!

[Katers]

Funatics meet up at the gas station! We're not sketchy at all

What a weird statement.

It does seem weird out of context there was someone before that said about fanatics running into each other since we'll all be out getting Dr Pepper. I'm not a weirdo, I swear!

Isn't that what a weirdo would say, though?

Seriously, though, not weird....dedicated! Not everyone will be out at midnight to get these bottles to make sure they're good to go! The things we do for our pops!

[Katers]

So! Looking back at the post that RayPunz made with the photos of the special label it appears to be the same UPC code! I can't see the first couple digits, but I don't think it would have changed. So we probably don't need to have the special Dr Pepper labels (granted, I also don't think it said "specially marked Dr Pepper" anywhere either) and the advertising on the poster with Lil Sweet shows just generic Dr Pepper bottles. So this is positive!

This is exactly right. They aren't going to change UPC's just for a giveaway promotion. They are called "universal product codes" for a reason.

Now if they were to insert some kind of special code in the cap that you need to text in, that would make more sense. But if all they require is proof of purchase and the upc code, which has been stated, no need to hunt for a special bottle.

...And now we're all going to be paranoid about special codes in the caps!

It's either gotta be that or a photo of the receipt, right?
(make sure everyone gets a receipt just in case!)

When they have had previous promotions to get Uber ride credits, the UPC's on the bottles I took pics of to send in were all the same and worked fine so I don't think that will be an issue.

I cannot wait to get Lil' Sweet though, those commercials with him have me CRYING laughing. I hope they keep making more of them.

I'm glad to know you've had experience with this type of thing before! Thanks for the info! Definitely makes me feel better since I haven't seen any bottles with the labels around yet

Everyone needs gas for their cars! Or, should we go to a grocery store? Target? Surely these bottles will be all over, right?

I’m getting mine at Wawa!!!

[TakeMeToTheRiot]

i sent this yesterday and I’m starting to think they might not respond

[Westlos420]

I checked today and no luck on the new labels here.

I'm happy to be reading this and kinda having a "duh" moment. I've had no luck finding the special funko labeled bottles, but after reading this hopefully I'll be set just picking up 3 20oz bottles.

Good luck!

NO truth to coded caps! Not gonna be the one to start that rumor..

If you get a response, please let us know. I've yet to find the Funko labeled bottles, so ended up picking up the "regular" ones. I'm hoping this will be adequate enough to qualify

[rexflexall]

Can't find any of those bottles yet!

[JoshChaos]

Found the Funko labeled bottles at my local walmart last night. I live in a small town, and our walmart is usually way behind on everything. So the fact they had them makes me think most or all walmarts have them now.

[stl_ben]

Yeah, the west coast funatics are at a disadvantage on this one! Maybe the system will have rebooted by the time we wake up in the morning?

How do we know what time zone it will be based in? Have I missed that info?

We’re they just in the front of the store in the cooler?? Also Go Birds!

Still haven’t found any in Vegas for me. Bah

Good to know! I'm going to check my local walmart today! Thanks for the heads up!

He’s so much already and hasn’t “officially” come out yet.. smh

[methodsmadness]

He’s so much already and hasn’t “officially” come out yet.. smh

I feel like it will only go down once the market gets flooded with Lil' Sweets.

I hope so

Yup I agree

Agreed. I think there’ll be a lot more to go around than these pre-sellers are accounting for. I have nothing to back that up mind you. It’s just speculation. But with a promotion this size I’m imagining there’ll be quite a few.

Found some more funko branded bottles at Walmart this afternoon

No prob.

[NamesJay]

Apparently lots of Coke employees got a POP already.

[Rokinjosh]

Does anyone know how they will limit these? My dad and I are both wanting to get one and are unsure if they limit you one per address, or per phone number. Anyone familiar with how this works?

[keyese]

I love that the sticker is a Dr Pepper can

I think it said one per phone number on the label, but might want to double check.

Yeah, once the webpage they listed is live it should explain the limitations.

Welp...they replied to me but not sure they helped at all

[snowsiren]

Welp...they replied to me but not sure they helped at all

Seems helpful to me! Good to know for sure the purchases can't be made before February 1, though, right? That makes me assume February 1 in your own time zone because I can't imagine someone checking every receipt to see what time zone it was in. And it makes it sound like there isn't any sneaky code hidden under the caps haha

[FireEmblemZack]

That's what I noticed too I love when they have weird stickers on the box
