There's a 7-11 in Weirton but they haven't put out the RP stuff yet. From what the cashier said - it sounds like they already had RP supplies in back - but she said it wouldn't be available until June 1. Sad

(must - be - patient)

so i went by the 7-11 near where I live (southern california), and they had cups advertising super 8, but no rocket Pop cups. But in the ice cream section, they had the pops! I picked up 4 of em.

The packages say they are made by Wells corp. distrubited by 7-11. So if you dont have a 7-11 near you I doubt you will see them around. At first glance (as others have said) I dont see anything arg ish. there is a phone number 800-255-0711 but its in a box that says Satisfaction Guaranteed so its probably just a consumer hotline.

waiting till after dinner to eat one. Ill chime in if anything is odd about the stick and such.

The pop is of a "twisted-missile shape".
The "stick" was a beige [flesh tone color] and is like a thick plastic straw.
It has ridges along the length of it.
So far I don't see anything special about the "stick".
[ You can put a finger on one end. Then blowing across the open end it whistles. ]

I do have photos of my "experience". lol

[Another oddity... The clerk, which I think also owned the store, did not even know it was one of their products.
It was like the distributor just placed them in the store without telling them.
He was also confused about the price ending in 8.
With tax it came to $1.04...
Most of their products are more than a dollar, here in suburbia. ]

My Picasa Rocket Poppeteers Album <<< LINK
I will probably regret posting those pics of me eating the Rocket Pop on the perverted interwebs.

Didn't see any cups; though I have to say, it was a pretty damn good popsicle.

Thank you people for footages!
I like how they registered it: not (C) Paramount Pictures, but Rocket Poppeteers. Awesome.
