The first set of Pepsi/Warner Bros glasses had eighteen glasses each depicting a different Warner Bros. character. They started producing them in 1974, breaking it down into three series of six. A restaurant would sign on for the promotion of the first series and after that series was completed, had the opportunity to sign on for the second series, and then the third. Each successive series would have fewer restaurants signing on for one reason or another, which is why the first series is very easy to find and the most common.

These glasses were produced both by Brockway Glass and the Federal Glass company. Chase mentioned that the promotion was so successful that the original contractor, Brockway, could not keep up with the orders -- therefore Federal Glass company was signed on to help fill the demand.

Since this promotion attracted so much attention, it was decided to produce another set of glasses, the Pepsi Warner Bros interaction set. Instead of the static figures of the first set, these Warner Bros characters were busy doing "something" (e.g. Porky Pig with a fishing pole). The second set consisted of two series of twelve glasses each and was only produced by Brockway. The values on the interaction glasses are higher than the static characters in the first set.
