Hi ann1626, It's still very early in the promotion, so availability will depend on your location. I have only found 4 of 7 so far. Not seeing Ultron yet. I found a Hulk can in a convenience store/gas station in Nashville. I expect them all to be available by the time the movie hits on May 1. The 16oz cans may be a little tougher to locate because many stores only carry plastic bottles. Good luck!

Very cool! How fitting that HULK is on one of the big cans! The movie tie-in and superhero cans must be working well with DP. They have had several good sets in the last few years...Spiderman, Indiana Jones, Iron Man, Avengers. I know they don't do it just for us can collectors, but it definitely helps the collection.

That's all that I have seen. Was hoping Sprite mini would be added to the lineup, but haven't seen any. Merry Christmas!

Good find on the 3rd design. DP is on pace to have more different cans in this promotion than they had in all of the Tuition Giveaway. I think 9 different cans was the biggest of those. And I'm still wondering if there are some more conference cans that are just a little late in production. Technically, we are only 2 or 3 weeks into the college football season. The Championship is still a long way off.

I live in an SEC town, but our DP cans don't have that SEC logo on them. I ended up finding the SEC cans in another city south of here. Must be only certain bottlers doing it. Is there a BIG TEN logo can? Did you find any with other conferences? Dr Pepper is/was a major sponsor of BIG XII, just as they are a sponsor of the SEC.
Finally got around to checking my DP TEN cans last night. No, they don't have the ESPN logo. They have the Playoff design like on the outside of the 12pk carton. Sure is a lot of variations in this promotion. I'm gonna have enough soda to "float a battleship around".
As always, I'm more than happy to trade.

macoan - Good catch (pun intended) with the passing design! I had already stopped looking for others. In addition to the ones you have already mentioned, I found the first design on Diet Cherry. I wish they had included the drink flavor logo in the football side of the can. These are all going to look the same on a shelf.

At this point, it's too early to say how many cans will be in the set. My guess is that there will be 6. I'll add more pics as I find the other cans. Edit: I was lazy and only included pics of the monsters. The hands are grabbing the logo on the other side of the cans. You get the choice of which side you display!

Seems that with every new set, it's difficult to find one or more of the cans. I eventually found the third can (not in my local area). I have a few extras if anyone wants to trade.

I saw some singles of the 2nd can (two hands on the ball) in the cooler at a gas station last night outside of Lexington KY (I-75). Slowly, but surely...

Here's the other designs on the outside of the 12pack box. Unfortunately, the sun design is the only can found so far in my area. Holding out to see if the others become available. Same thing happened with the Sochi olympic cans. The only one that ever showed up here was the speedskater design.

A store with the old and new on the shelf at the same time. Perfect opportunity for a photo.

Hello and welcome to the board! You'll probably get various opinions on the question you asked about opened vs unopened. Here's mine - overall condition of the can far outweighs it being "unopened". I do however, "bottom open" cans whenever possible, just in case another collector considers the unmolested top a plus.
I never keep cans full of liquid! Once you have a can spring a leak and slowly drip down over other cans, you'll know why. No one can tell if a can is full or empty on a shelf.

Anybody ever have any luck improving the look of oxidized cans? Not even sure why it happens to some cans and not others. Attachments:
