Kevzie, check out item no. 271975654157 on eBay which might be OK. Cheers John
The line of the screen used bottles is 2 mm thick. That's between 1/16 and 1/8 inch.
I'm not going to lie. I'm shaking my head that I apparently have to explain this, but here goes.
It's a video made for fun. The Official bottle was actually chucked into a bubble wrap lined trash can to keep it protected. It's now sitting up with my Mexi-Pepsi and Replica on the shelf - and they are all empty.
I always intended to empty the bottle. The timing just worked out really well with the replica bottle, so my oldest daughter and I thought it would be funny to film this video for everyone.
I also only paid 20 bucks for the thing, so I figured what the hell...![]()
LOL the way you threw this Pepsi Bottle in the dustbin...
Cheers,
Thanks Roland, I did think 3mm seemed a little thick. I'll go for 2mm then.
Just need a definite blue to paint the lid with and one in uk so I don't have to pay ridiculous postage. Getting there!

hi kevzie i also live in the uk and have been looking for the right paint to use for my lid......
ive seen this on e-bay not sure if its right or not what do you think? (Item number 171667079709) :thumbsup
That looks pretty good to me and should do the trick unless anyone on the forum knows the exact colour used on the original prop. The thing with metallic paints is they look different shades depending on the lighting so even the correct paint would look wrong under different lighting. Unless the exact colour is known and this is still available you should go with a shade that you are happy with as closest to the original as possible. Cheers John
My bottle from Argentina arrived today.

Here it is lined up with the Mexican and US bottles. Please note: space left for @Gary Weaver II's bottle

Here are comparisons to the Mexican bottle. The MX bottle is on the left in these photos. The Argentinian bottle has a little tab on the lid so it locks in place (nice touch).
