    Pepsi Moon Glasses

    Are any of the Pepsi DC Superhero glasses harder/more expensive to get? I saw 7 of the in a thrift store $5 each. I was tempted to grab them, but the collector in me knows I'll then need them all (14 in the series?). I was worried I'd get those cheap 7 and then not be able to collect them all because the remainders cost too much. I don't think they had any of the big three, but I don't remember which they had. Plus, I'd use them

    The harder to find and more expensive glasses are - Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Penguin, Joker - mid-level glasses would be The Flash, Riddler, Batgirl and Supergirl - most common (but well worth $5 if the color is not faded and has gloss) would be the rest - Batman, Robin, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Shazam!

      Depending on condition, you passed-up a good deal. But if you factor in the uncertainty of shipping glass, buying or selling, you may well have saved yourself a headache.

        Casually collecting these, mostly in the wild, it took me at least 15 years to complete a set. Like shazam7208 mentioned, some are much harder to find than others. I'd give $5 for any of them, and would probably have bit on them, even though I have a nice set.

            I only have two so far and I get happy finding em for $10. Let me know if you wanna sell em for a quick profit, if you decide to not keep em.

                Here is a picture of a few that I have had up for trade...the Riddler and Robin (faded) on the left are the "moon" glasses we have been talking about.

                    I LOVE me some pepsi glasses. Here's my set of superhero ones (moon and not moon). I would have picked those up in a heart beat and used them when guests come over. ;-)

                    Fresh, not from concentrate.

                      I would have too for $5. I have a Shazam and an Aquaman I use daily. But I have a full set in my collection.

                          Those are some of the tougher ones. $5 a piece was a steal! GL took me years and years to find. He was the last one I bought.

                              $5 each is a great deal, even for common ones. Green Lantern by himself is worth what you paid for all 7. Congrats!
