The “Jaws” 50th Anniversary Sipper is now available at locations around Universal Studios Orlando Resort selling “Jaws 50” merchandise. We found the sipper at the Universal Studios Store in Universal Studios Florida.
Jaws Sipper – $24
The sipper features the “Jaws 50” wordmark on an air tank which is protruding from a shark’s mouth. The strap of the sipper is made up of faux nautical rope with spears on either ends, attaching it to the sipper.
The body of the shark is blue with a white underbelly. A plastic piece resembling the strap lays atop the shark’s snout.
The bottom of the shark also features the “Jaws 50” logo printed in gray lettering. The other side of the removable air tank canister features a blue, gold, and black graphic of an air tank with arrows pointing up.
Without the canister, the teeth of the shark container are more prominent. There is a round tray at the base of shark container to keep the canister secured when inside.
The air tank canister is silvers with a straw for drinking. It has several scratches and dents along its exterior, likely from shark encounters.
Jaws 50th Anniversary Merchandise at Universal Studios Orlando
The shark sipper was originally teased in a first look at Jaws 50th Anniversary merchandise back in March; however, it did not appear with the other merchandise released mid-May. A special Jaws 50th anniversary refillable Coca-Cola Freestyle souvenir cup is also available.
In honor of the film’s 50th anniversary, the San Francisco area of Universal Studios Florida has been transformed into “Little Amity,” a small temporary “Jaws” land. The land has several Easter eggs and film props along with two food booths. Both of these booths harken back to the actual menus of The Midway Grill and Captain Quint’s Boardwalk Snacks that once operated in Amity at Universal Studios Florida, which offered hot dogs and funnel cake.
“Jaws” was released in theaters on June 20, 1975, and was based on the 1974 novel of the same name by Peter Benchley. The film was directed by Steven Spielberg, with Roy Scheider as Chief Martin Brody, Robert Shaw as shark hunter Quint, and Richard Dreyfuss as marine biologist Matt Hooper. The blockbuster grossed $476.5 million during its initial release and was the highest-grossing movie of all time at that point.
