I think Emma is right. Pepsi have made the required percentage change to cover their ***. I have not been able to find a high rez image of the logo yet, but am guessing that is been changed as well.
They won't release the bottle as a thick collectible due to cost and they can't have a flip top if the bottle contains a pressurized liquid. I'm impressed that actually made the lid like a small cup to give the bottle its closer than a typical soft drink shape.

Honestly I think you guys are over complicating the reasons for the changes. It's most likely that they need the bottle to fit 20 ounces to match their other bottles. Then they need to make a bottle that can handle the pressures of a carbonated beverage which will likely dictate a specific shape.
So they started with something close, then built it to match those limitations.
I'm just glad they're doing this because one of the projects I had on the horizon for the next 18 months was to experiment with blow molding bottles. So they saved me the effort. Haha

The pressure in the bottle is one reason for sure.
I had actually lined up some blanks from Coke to vacuum form in a female tool. Still will do this if I get the blanks.

"Water bottles" would be a good way to make the bottle and keep the flip top and shape, not an actual soda bottle, but a refillable water bottle labelled with a Pepsi logo (that we can cover with our own printed accurate label.) And hey, people can pour in a Pepsi and still drink soda in it

I'm hearing these bottles will have a rather high price point. North of $15 per bottle....

Oh man I'm going to NYCC as Marty from 2015. I so need to get this pepsi perfect bottle. I wonder why they haven't released any more info.

So an inflated price far beyond what the materials cost, but still well within reach of the common man. I'm fine with that price, though $5-10 and a run of 20,000 would be better.

I was hoping for a nation wide release - scalpers will make these harder to get. I'll try to get one or two on Oct. 21 but i'm not paying over retail. Any idea what site they will sell them on?
That sucks! If anybody's going to New York comic con? Could you grab 2 for me? Or 4? (2 extra for Steve haha)

for $20.15 per bottle you'd expect it to be more screen accurate. Hopefully it comes with something extra

I don't get their logic though, it's just a basic bottle, with bog-standard Pepsi inside. That SCREAMS 'mass market' to me.
Surely it would have made more sense to have released this as a standard product around the world? They could still have come out with a 'deluxe' version for superfans, sold empty as a sports bottle and featuring a more accurate design.
It's the Nike Mag fiasco all over again.

A company that big probably doesn't want to be associated to the film industry, it's not just a simple product placement. They already have a ready made design and they probably don't want to change it just because of back to the future.

I'm not talking about a permanent change, just for a few months in 2015. They've already taken the complicated movie design and streamlined it down to a product that can be easily mass-produced, that's half the work right there.
They would have made a lot more money that way I reckon.

I'll say. Pepsi had to come along with their good intentions just when I thought people had finally stopped complaining about the shoes.
A real fiasco.
