I got a ton more on my hard drive, but this should be a good start for now. If I get plenty of love and adoration, perhaps I'll put some more up. :)

those were awesome! Now I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. ;)

OMFG!!! I watched the rest of them...I LOVE THEM! I couldn't believe that there was one for Crest/The Cavity Creeps/Toothopolis....that was one of my all-time favorites! What a neato trip down memory lane! I wanna go back! :( :\'(

Heh - glad to be of service!

So the 98 dollar question - I have more (lots more) of these hanging around on my hard drive. However it takes some time to encode them and upload 'em to google (plus, theyre not the fastest in getting them online) - so it's a healthy chunk of work. While I'm sure Quirk would love to see more, the thread scrolled off the page without comment. If theres intrest, I'll do more. If not, I'll let the thread die in peace. . . .

If you guys want more - ya gots ta speak up.

I want my GI Joe personnel carrier!!! great commercials... yes more please!

Ha I loved that. Thanks those were great.I loved  the Emerson one. And  I still have 3 of the GI Joe APCs. ..and yes more please!!

Hey Tony, I got a tough one for you....could you manage to put the "This is your brain, this is your brain on drugs" PSA? I have literally searched the Internet high and low for this ad and cannot find it. If you could that would be great, if not don't worry...I don't really care that much.

Yes, I do have that one - HOWEVER, it's not on the hard drvie, its on one of my DVD-R's. I can get it, but it takes some rerigging of my set up to import from DVD. Gimme the weekend and I'll see if I can provide it for you.

Meanwhile, here's a couple more to make you feel old. I would have had some MTV promos up too, but google says that I dont own the rights to them. On the other hand, google seems to think I *DO* own the rights to the Transformers, GI Joe and Jiffypop.

Sheesh.

* Cup O Noodles

* Jiffy Pop Popcorn

Wow, thanks Tony...that would be great. I didn't even think anyone had that commerical. I actually haven't seen it yet, it came out when I was practically a baby (I know, I'm young eh? ;)) I tried every different search you can imagine to find it and couldn't. Anyways, it will be nice to finally see it.

Yes, yes - I know I forgot about the egg. I'll get to it "soon". In the meantime, here's a couple more blasts from the past for you all:

* Star Wars PSA 01
* Star Wars PSA 02

Coooool!

"R2-D2, you found a cigarette!"

Haven't seen that one in years! Thanks!

WOW, I remember the McDonalad Holiday commercial - I think it was one of the first "holiday" commercials to start off the season. I think they ran that several years, as well.

I had my own pound puppy collection, but I don't remember that commercial much. I didn't realise adults liked them, too  ;D

Hell yeah you have to post more!

Ask and ye shall recieve! How about . . . .

* Monster Squad Trailer!
* Toys R Us - Nintendo!

I got a couple more pending - but youtube hasnt posted them yet. So, this will have to do for the moment.

Cool!

Ok, Youtube finally cleared the other commercials, so I give you:

* Strolin' Bowling!
* Energizer - with Jacko! Oi!
