Title: Dancing coke cans
Post by: scalebowler on January 13, 2011, 01:09:17 am
Anyone know where I could find one of those dancing coke cans? I always thought they were kind of neat but have not been able to find any for a long time.

I see those on E-Bay every now and then.  I have also seen them on CL from time to time.  Just need to keep an eye out!

I have 2 of them one in mint shape and the other a little sun faded. Not for sale thought but keep an eye out on ebay. Mine are in working order.

I went to an antique store today to look around and I came accross two of them. One diet coke and one coke. The coke one has the sun glasses and headphones but the diet coke one does not. Both work too. Going to mess around with them tonight and I do have to fix the coke one because the battery terminals did not reach the batteries so I tried to bend it out and snapped one off but I can fix it.

Got the two going today (the sun glasses one was a birthday present so I did not get it untill today) and I love them. For some reason they are just really fun and the diet coke one could be used to mess with people too. It looks like a real dented diet coke can and I bet I could put it on a shelf with my other cans and catch people off guard when the one starts moving. I would post a video but youtube is being stupid and it won't work.

       I used to have the dancing Coke bottle. Looked EXACTLY like the 6 1/2 oz style. I had it displayed between several real full bottles on top of a Coke machine in my store.
When people would come in, as we were talking a certain voice tone would activate it momentarily.
      Out of the corner of their eye they would catch the movement! "I think I just saw that bottle move"   I'd say "what? I don't believe you"   :tounge:  It was a lot of fun and then when the little kids would clap their hands the bottle would dance and they went nuts!   :biggrin:
