Summer 2012
We all love a collectible - and these Olympic themed fizzy gems really got London 2012 excited! Coca-cola knows how to get the crowd going and these hyper bright bottles have been exchanging hands for £££'s amongst the eBay generation!
Several different bottles were released during the summer and you had to be in the right place at the right time to get hold of the really limited releases. The Torch Relay had it's own selection as did the uber cool Beatbox in the Olympic park - the VERY limited Gold bottles got released in two minute bursts every time one of team GB got awarded a gold medal. The 3 boxed editions hit the stores throughout London late July and additional Gold bottles adorned the exclusive shelves of Selfridges.
Coca-cola has been releasing limited edition bottles for many years now. The wonderful aluminium bottles have only recently started to ruffle the feathers f the collectors. You can read more here
