I picked up the four, different glasses at lunch today. The woman taking my order was obviously NOT a Star Trek fan. She kept saying, "I need four more Star WARS glasses!" Lol

Forget the glasses and get the cardboard stand up display that must be in there. Thumb Up

There are two problems with that idea.

1) Burger King now has a permanent display box for their promotions. The interior is changed to whatever promotion is currently running.

2) I used to be an assistant manager at a McDonald's and handled the promotional displays. There were MANY displays that I would loved to have had, but even I couldn't get them. The displays had to be sent back, once the promotion was complete. I imagine the same is true for Burger King. (How some of these things nevertheless wind up on eBay is beyond me.)

I'm sure some of the managers sell these and just send a note saying some kid threw his drink all over it and they had to throw it away.

I picked up the Kirk, Uhura & Spock. I really like them and the boxes they came in. Plus yes the display was great but certainly don't have space at home for it!

Here are the pictures of the glasses and their boxes. I did not get Nero so I don't have any images of that glass.

Got the Kirk and Nero glasses as both Burger King in Meridian do not have the Spock glass. My son has 4 of the 16 toys.

I guess we were very fortunate. We were able to get all four glasses and all 16 toys. I'll give the managers credit for being so patient with us as we told them what we needed and what we didn't need. Having worked on the other side of the counter, I know how frustrating that can be.

I have all 4 glasses and 2 of the toys (Kirk and Spock). It's kind of expensive for me to get the toys, so I doubt I will get any more -- I'm a vegetarian and can't/won't eat the food, so I am basically buying the meal for the toy Smile

I did ask my wife to go into the BK and see if they had any Scotty or Sulu toys, and no place that she has gone has had them yet.

Ask if you can just buy the toy. Most BK I go to will allow you to.

I went in today and managed to get Uhura, Chekov and another Spock.

I've been to 4 BKs in the last few days though and none of them had the two I want most -- Scotty and Sulu. So, if anyone has those two, Bones or Leonard Nimoy's Spock, I would love to trade Wave I also have an extra Uhura glass.

I got my Sulu toy two weeks ago at my local Burger King. They wouldn't let me buy the toy alone, so I ended up just buying a kids meal and hoping for one of the characters, as the vehicle ones don't really interest me. I still would like a Chekov one, but I am happy with my Sulu!
