  • CHUMLEE: What's up, man?

  • TEL: How you doing? - I'm good.

  • What do you have here?

  • I have an awesome 1980s Coca-Cola toy.

  • CHUMLEE: OK.

  • It's real awesome, dude.

  • Cool.

  • This is a GoBot.

  • Where'd you get it?

  • TEL: I had a birthday party in Burger King,

  • and this was the gift that Burger King gave me.

  • CHUMLEE: I think I'd be pretty pissed

  • if I got this at 12 years old.

  • Like, a Coke can?

  • Seriously?

  • [laughs]

  • TEL: I have a 1980s Coca-Cola robot.

  • When I first got it, I tried to play with it.

  • It was just a Coke can, so it really

  • didn't fit in with any other toys,

  • so it just went back in the box.

  • It's just sitting on a shelf, so I'm just trying

  • to get rid of some clutter.

  • My wife keeps on at me about those stupid things

  • I keep holding on to.

  • Let me see this here.

  • This is pretty cool.

  • TEL: Right?

  • CHUMLEE: Coca-Cola advertisement,

  • but it's also a GoBot.

  • So in 1984, Tonka came out with the GoBots,

  • and Hasbro came out with the Transformers.

  • It was basically the same concept.

  • You know, they were robots that would change into a Coke can,

  • or a car, or an airplane.

  • And, you know, with the Transformers,

  • there was the Autobots and the Decepticons,

  • and they were battling for thousands of years.

  • I don't know too much about GoBots.

  • But basically, the same thing as Transformers,

  • but not as popular, you know?

  • Many people look at the GoBots as Transformer knockoffs.

  • But in reality, the GoBots were released

  • before the Transformers.

  • Both of them are pretty cool, but the GoBots only

  • lasted a few years, and the Transformers

  • just released their fourth major motion picture.

  • This is going to appeal to people who collect

  • Coke, Transformers, GoBots.

  • It is in good condition, man.

  • TEL: Yeah.

  • CHUMLEE: Well, what do you want to do with it?

  • I wanted to try and sell it.

  • How much were you trying to get for it?

  • TEL: I wanted about $200.

  • Hm.

  • Honestly, dude, it's a GoBot.

  • I'm gonna offer you 40 bucks on it.

  • TEL: How about $150?

  • Um, would you be able to do like, maybe, 60 bucks?

  • $80?

  • I can go $75 on it.

  • OK.

  • CHUMLEE: 75 bucks?

  • Yeah. CHUMLEE: All right.

  • That's a deal.

  • Let's go over here and write it up.

  • OK.

  • I got it for free when I was a 10-year-old.

  • It sat on the shelf for about 30 years,

  • and I got $75 for it, so I think that's a pretty good deal.

  • CHUMLEE: (EVIL VOICE) Now, we must plan takeover

  • of your boss's enterprise.

  • RICK: It's been a long time since I've seen one of those.

  • CHUMLEE: I just bought it.

  • It's a GoBot.

  • It's like, a Transformer thing.

  • But it's not a GoBot, Chum.

  • How do you know?

  • OK.

  • It's like a Transformer.

  • It transforms.

  • Boom.

  • Done.

  • Chum.

  • Yeah?

  • What I'm trying to tell you is,

  • it was Coca-Cola just made it.

  • It wasn't done by GoBots or anything.

  • So what is it, then?

  • So Coca-Cola made this promotional thing in England,

  • but there was no reason to have GoBots

  • or Transformers do it when they could just do it themselves.

  • Don't have to pay a licensing fee or anything like that,

  • so they just made a transforming Coke can.

  • It's-- I just--

  • I don't get it.

  • But it's still cool.

  • How much you pay for it?

  • 75 bucks.

  • You actually did good.

  • I mean, we could sell it for like, $150.

  • Cha-ching.

  • Go, go, Coke can.

  • As long as you don't break it.

  • [grunting]

  • Chum, put it away, put it on the shelf, till we sell it.

  • All right?

  • All right?

  • [making hissing noise]

  • (EVIL VOICE) You shall live to pawn another day, Chum.

CHUMLEE: What's up, man?
