It seems to me that Pepsi Invaders has changed enough hands and that enough new ones have come into lite to update the list
PEPSI INVADERS (no label)

1. Cincynoti: Cart
2. 98Pacecar got his cart from myself of which I got from Buyatari)
3. Dino:Cart, (Got his from Cvga)
4. Cvga's friend: Cart, Box (Got the box from Cvga)
5. Marc Oberhauser: Cart
6. Marco: Cart
7. Ianoid: Cart (Got his from Tempest)
8. Wonder007: Cart (Got his off Ebay in 2005)
9. PJR175: Cart (Got his off Ebay in 2006)
10. Spaceinvader2002: Cart ( A poster a few years back who claimed to have it)
11. Generalhellfire:Cart (Got his from Cokewins)
12. Ricky: Cart, Box (Picture that Mattyxb put up a few years back, the link had the name Ricky on it) (This Maybe Sealed)
13. decypher: Cart, Box (Got his from Ceo_sezso who got his from a thrift store.)
14. atari2600guru: Cart, Box (Got his during the great find of 1994 when 3 boxed ones where unearthed)
15. CrunchySuperman: Cart (Got his from tool*shed*)
16. tool*shed*: Cart
17. Marksowen: Cart (Got his from riffraff)
18. Atari2600lives(Alex): Cart (Got his from Don who got his in a local trade)
19. Rick Weiss:Cart, Box(Got his from vgc who got his from the son of a Coca Cola employee)
20. JustJeff: Cart (Got his from Video-Game-Stuff got his from a thriftstore)
21. Jump Junky: Cart (Got his from father who worked at company)
22. Phaser_on_patrol: Cart (Got from Monzamess off Ebay, who got his from a local fleamart)
23. igg1na: Cart ?

xx. Bruce Tomlin made mention of a couple of Pepsi Invaders floating around out there that were found and one was supposedly sealed. This could be a reference to when cvga found a boxed Pepsi Invaders and a loose one. ( Said it was found in a swapmeat in georgia)

PEPSI INVADERS lab-loaner label

1. AA cpuwiz
2. AA rick weis
3. AA bloatedmonkey (coca-cola eprom)
4. Mayhem UK (Got his from Marco)
4B. Wonder 007 (Got his from one of the first 3)
5. Jerry G.
6. ginnidog

Ok at the moment this list has a lot of wholes in it like the Atlantis II list orignally did. Hopefully I can garner enough information to make this list fairly updated. So if you have any info that could help make this list more accurate and updated I would really appreciate it.

Search the 2600 forums there's at least one other owner of this title in CIB form, who is not currently listed.

The only thing I have come up with so far is the picture by MattyXB that he got from some website. The link says Rickyz / list. So I will call the guy who has this Ricky. Also this was before CVGA had sold his so there is definetly atleast 2 boxes. I think that this is the sealed box of Pepsi Invaders that Bruce Tomlin had mentioned reading about in some older forum before Atariage.
Here is the picture if anyone is interested.

xx. Bruce Tomlin ...

Could this be referring to the 1 boxed + 1 loose that CVGA reported finding at a flea market:

http://www.atariage....s...512&hl=coke

Also, atari2600guru (John E. of the giant label variations list) owns the boxed one whose photo has been posted and re-posted over and over again:

http://www.atariage....s...57729&st=25

He mentions that three boxed ones were found in a thrift store around 1994, one of which is the one he owns (or at least he owned it in 2004 at the time of that post).

I have one. It is actually a Loaner Lab label version that came from Atari rather than from someone from Coke.

Finally found mine. The marker on the rom shield also has K32 05 like all the others I have seen. However on the back of the chip next to the co1185 it looks like it has been engraved 2-62 in LED style numbers. I haven't seen any with that.

Actually on the 100+ or so of them made, 1 can be subtracted from the ammount of them known to exist. Because (and looking back now it makes me sick.) in the middle 1990's a neighbor gave me a 2600 and several carts, including on cart that was just a board with no case, when I hooked it all up and inserted the cart with no shell it was what I now know to be pepsi invaders. I was out of the 2600 stuff and didn't care, and thought it sucked since you could only play for like 3 mins. So one night when a bunch of us were drinking, I threw all of it into the bonfire we had built. So count up one copy of pepsi invaders destroyed. From my own not knowing nor not caring at the time. Looking back I would give my left nut to have that game again instead of what I did to it.
