Fortunately, there’s also 1500 caps and a unique laser pistol, so it wasn’t a complete waste of time. Inside, you’ll find over 300 Deputy Badges, which are weightless, worthless and can’t be worn by you or any followers. If you ask Festus about an actual, tangible prize, he’ll direct you to a vault within the factory to collect your reward. Handing in the caps to Festus, he rewards you with a story of how the drink first originated. Once you’ve finally collected 50, take them to an animatronic robot named Festus at the Sunset Sarsaparilla Headquarters, northwest of Camp McCarran.
Many of these star caps have fixed locations scattered all over the Mojave and DLC regions but can occasionally be acquired by drinking a Sunset Sarsaparilla soda and collecting the cap. With so many of these unique caps to collect, it can take most players until near the end of the game’s story before they’ve acquired enough. One of the most time-consuming quests in Fallout: New Vegas is 'The Legend of the Star,' which tasks players with finding at least 50 unique Sunset Sarsaparilla Star Bottle Caps in order to unlock a mysterious treasure.
