I grew up in a household where this was considered "the fine china"

There wouldn’t be any damn superhero fatigue if they just had tie-in glassware like those Batman Forever glasses from 1995. My God. I’m a vegan and I’d step into a McDonald’s again for those.

Eh. I'd prefer if Welch's jelly brings back those dinosaur/Tom and Jerry/Muppets in Space jars. I still have my Jurassic Park ones My dad went on a business trip to Atlanta when I was 8, and he brought back a Braves cap along with a Jurassic Park cup. The Braves cap has been long gone, but I did keep the cup for pencils and whatnot over the years. Because of the character on the cup, they became "my character" when I finally saw the movie. Unfortunately, the character was Dennis Nedry, which was disappointing since he was the bad guy and got eaten. Now as an adult, Nedry is one of the best things about that movie. I wish he had won. There wouldn’t be any damn superhero fatigue if they just had tie-in glassware like those Batman Forever glasses from 1995. My God. I’m a vegan and I’d step into a McDonald’s again for those. Due to not being able to find a Riddler action figure anywhere despite looking all over, my consolation prize was that little glass that I would bust out at Christmas time for egg nog.

I still have and use them to this day. Some from my family that we got when I was really little and some from a thrift store 15 years ago. Absolutely GOATED. I also vaguely recall having the Garfield glasses, but I think my mom got rid of them.

I got 3 of the Burger King Star Wars glasses sitting on my shelf. I know 2 are from Empire,one Boba Fett one Lando. The other I think is from Return.
Had a full set of all three films as a kid,plus piles of others. All broke over the decades.
In like 2001 or so at a junkstore not far from where I live now lady had 30 of them for sale. 25 cents each. All looked brand new,besides the LAYER of dust. Handn't her 10 bucks told her ot keep the change.
Was 2 full sets,was 4 glasses per film,then some extras.
Got back to Texas,Went to local comic shop and told the owner "Look here's a Lando Empire glass free. Gonna talk to the two big Star Wars guys when they come in see if they want this set."
Bit later Star Wars guy comes in. I show him the set and sold it to him for a nice profit.

I actually still have those Welch's cups. I sold all of mine in a garage sale many many years ago, but did come across 3 of the 4 dinosaur jars at an antique store just a few months ago. They even still had the lids. I don't think I'd rebuy the Tom and Jerry ones though, considering I never even saw the movie that they were promoting.

Even as a child drinking from that riddler cup was damned challenge due to how tiny they made teh hook handle

Just got a vintage one at a thrift store for $5. Bet that's like 4 times less than what the meal and plastic cup will go for now.
(EDIT: It was a Captain Crook from unknown year)

The plastic cups I have from a million years ago haven't held up well... But man oh man the glass ones do. Like the paint hasn't come off the ones I have at all, and they get daily use for breakfast OJ since time immimorium.

It's $2 more than the meal if you want the cup. That's not a terrible upcharge.

Too bad Mac Tonight has a negative connection to his image now. He was one of my favorites as a kid. Would have been cool to get a cup of him.
