Back to the Future was an iconic trilogy of films. Back to the Future II in particular provided a rather garish, but highly memorable vision of the then future of 2015, featuring hoverboards, flying cars, holograms, self drying and adjusting clothes, and other such technologies that probably seemed wacky and hilarious back in the 1980’s but that we’re still desperately trying to develop today. Nike developed a limited edition set of shoes some years ago that were similar to the ones Marty McFly wore, and are apparently working towards the self-lacing technology seen in the film. Meanwhile Lexus did develop a hoverboard prototype earlier this year that, while not going into production soon, will hopefully one day fill that hoverboard shaped void in the soul of every man, woman, and child who ever saw the film.  Pepsi are now getting in on the game, and while it’s not quite as exciting as some of the things in development, it’s still a rather cool nod to an iconic movie series.

The Future is Now

In Back to the Future 2, while loitering around the Café 80’s, Marty McFly orders a Pepsi, receiving a rather sleek looking bottle dubbed Pepsi Perfect. Now, on October 21st, 2015, the same day that scene was set in the film, Pepsi will be releasing a limited edition of their drink. Limited to a release of just 6500 units, these custom bottles are one clever promotional product.

The only problem is, once you get one, do you drink it? Or hoard it as a collectible?
