    hello, a while ago i read about the star wars glasses that are a throwback to the vintage star wars burger king glasses. I was told target is bringing the glass line out. Are they out yet? (I am from Canada, and there are no targets in Canada...yet)

    They've been out for a while. Right now Leia is easy to find, and you might find a Darth Maul and ObiWan around. There are supposed to be more coming out with OTC packaging.

    Ebay might be your best bet. Good luck to you.

    *chokes, spits coke all over*

    leia's easy to find? i've only ever seen one of her.

    but to answer the question, they've been out all summer, with spotty distribution. i managed to get a whole set, with maul and obi-wan being the easiest to find. as i implied, leia took some work. luke and anakin are around, but not in as big of numbers as obi and maul.

    by the way, Darth_Menace, how's Canada? i'm seriously considering moving there.

    how much are the glasses.

    A couple of years ago I was able to complete all three sets of the original Burger King glasses with and average cost of $5 a glass by finding them at antique stores locally.
    All the glasses were in pristine condition

    All the glasses are collecting dust on the Clearance end-caps, around here in the DC area.

    bandit-jedi, i find the vintage glasses around here for 5 dollars as well. i have the ESB and ROTJ sets from way back when i was a kid, but i never had the first series. i just picked up Darth Vader the other day. for some reason the first series seems a lot harder to find. you can't hardly go to an antique store around here without finding a few ROTJ ones.

    as for the new glasses, they're 9.99. i haven't seen them on clearance yet, but here in the midwest we're always the last to get the sales.
