If the top gun tape is the Pepsi promo it’s apparently worth $17500. If it’s not, it’s worth about $15.

I'll have to look at that. What makes the Pepsi promo worth that? Rarity? How can you tell if its that one? I just collect the tapes and watch them I don't do much research.

If I understand right, that was the first ad subsidizing the cost of a vhs movie. "trouble with your refreshment system"

Ahh yes that makes sense. I can see that copy being rare!

Not saying it isn't, but it was a home video release of a huge hit movie well into the adoption of VHS (some folks might have been still clinging to Beta players in 1986) that was made quite inexpensive by the addition of a diet pepsi ad. It should have sold like hotcakes. I've got a copy with the ad on it.
