More than 20 minutes of American Masters of the Universe toy commercials from the 80's. Of course all commercials are property of Mattel. This is just a fan tribute. Hope you enjoy!
DarkSoul712 I dont know maybe nostalgia also included in those feelings but i think that those older commercials make kids wanted to have those much more,even when i see them now make me want even now to have one of those in my age of 35.
DarkSoul712 I really love lego minifigures and playmobil f?gures i dont know if in other regions have commersials for those but those days most of that kind of commercial is via the web.I see from times to times close to hollidays to have some for the kids but here in greece the most popular are barbie and hot wheels,back in the 80s we also had many like those mattel and not only.I waited to put commercials just to see what new stuff arived.
Sometimes i walk into a toy store just for fun, and all i see is toy lines based on Disney movies or action figures based on those crappy, hysterical Japanese cartoons. '80s toys will always be the best!
Being a poor kid I had very few of these figures. I started collecting ALOT more of them as an adult as I could more afford it. It's a fun hobby. Brings back nice memories.
+chinito77 Me too, but became a National Guard and English teacher with a Masters Degree so probably I did pay back because they are proud of me! See, even though we played violently back in the 80's that not transfer to a violent grown up! Today these kids have nothing to identify with!!!!!!!! Us, we were all Masters of the Universe, GI Joe, Mazinger and that was it !!!!
These commercials really brought tears to my eyes. I used to have every action figure and castle along with almost ever vehicle that was out. I can still remember the excitement I used to feel when I saw a new commercial for a new action figure, then my dad would take me to buy it. Kids now a days just want phones and computers they will never know how much fun it was playing with action figures and then going outside and pretending to be the characters with your friends for hours. I wish I had those days back. Getting old really sucks.
Still think the collect but yeah this is the Internet age times change but things never totally change.but we did have more imagination back in the day
I love how the creative geniuses at Mattel just used the same monotone drum beat for every commercial while just repeating the name of the new figure over and over.
The 80's were the BEST time to grow up...we had He-Man, Voltron, Thundercats, Gi Joe, Transformers...Ninja Turtles....we even had the Rocky movies and Hulk Hogan wresting in the WWF!!! It was the era of non-stop toy playing! Now...it's down hill for these kids!
That's what it was families doing things like that creation magical keep yourself busy but learning the good v bad these people are stars role models u played with ya toys it beats everything and anything since the pinnacle left the 80s which will never leave me but kids today and before don't know that when they got devices down their throats tablets fones etc etc the fairytale there is gone now the way the World is going never be beaten touched or matched from the happiness vibes feelings of these to what goes on now the last 10,20 even 30years
Let see kids can't walk to a park down the street with out parents getting called about child neglect, toys are cheaply made and over priced, and every thing is ether a reboot or a rip off of. and those are just the safe things to mention with out causing some kind of comment war.
The Dad in the first two is awesome XD Not only did he buy them that, giant, Expensive thing, and all the other toys. he also knew how to play too XD I wish my dad was that cool.
I'm a comic book artist and creator. I've always been into Thor, Hulk, batman ect. And I currently have over 70 characters of my own creation. But long before I was into marvel or DC it was all about He-man and the masters of the universe. I remember waking up on Christmas mornings still half asleep, bumping into walls as I made my way to the living room like a 5 yr old whino because my sister woke me up at like 5am screaming "Santa came!" Once I entered the living room my eyes would clear and light up brighter than any bulb (glass) on the tree. All the latest motu action figures would be lined up and castle grayskull and snake mountain fully assembled. And the cookies and milk we left Santa would be gone. Just a swallow of milk and a few cookie crumbs left. The excitement, and surprise was so overwhelming that our squeals of joy would wake our parents. Lol. Id play with them until id fall asleep on the floor in a nest of action figures, swords, shields and vehicles. I grew up and left all of those toys behind. But now I'm a husband, father and recently became a grand dad. I've started collecting the entire motu original vintage toyline. I have them in display cases, mounted on the wall like fine art because they represented such a wonderful time and a large part of my child hood. Thanks mom and dad. I love u.
The Thing I always remember about these commercials and those of G.I. Joe and Star Wars, was the COOL Yards and Places those Kids played in ... I used to be so jealous thinking "why couldn't I have a cool place that that to play in?" lol
My dad got me all the figures he could! Looking back they were like 12 dollars in the 80's. I made myself a Teacher and National Guard and I just hope they are proud of me because they did gave me the best childhood a kid can hope for !
Nonsense. There's zero reason to believe that today's parents are less involved with their children than kids in the early 80s (part of a famously emotionally neglected generation).
as a 4 yr old girl i LOVED masters of the universe and had several of these toys as well as transformers....80s toys were just awesome and such good quality
Agreed. So many of us who grew up during that time have now become so nostalgic for those yesteryears of our childhood that many of us flock to comic cons just to see some of that old stuff we grew up on and even take an optimus, he-man, cobra commander, or lion-o home to set up on a bookshelf. I remember flipping over the torn package of my most recently purchased figure to see all the other toys you could collect. I'd set there pointing em out saying, "I want this one next and that one TOO!!!" Hey, do u remember Silverhawks and Battle Beasts?
MotU was before my time, but lucky for me, I still got to play with them as a kid because my grandparents still had my uncle's old toys in a box! He had tons and my cousins and I always had a blast playing with them. I'll never forget one particular day- my uncle casually mentioned to us that he used to have an Orko toy, but he buried it in the backyard once and could never find it again. Naturally, i wanted to go out to my grandparents' backyard and find it- AND WE DID! We dug up a bit of earth and there was Orko, found after 15+ years! A little wash and he was good as new!
Wow! Nostalgic memories, kids these days play with hi-tech toys, those were the best hi-tech toys available for us lol, no play stations/Xboxes lol, 8-bit video games, action figures and weekend morning cartoons.
How I miss the 80's and my childhood. The exciting toys made a world of their own for me. He-Man toys were the prime examples of great toys that really had an impact of a lifetime.
I can remember walking down the He-man aisle of TRU and seeing all those shiny bubbles on the blisterpacks. As I got closer, the shine and glare would give way to reveal the figures hidden inside. Row upon row of glorious mysteries waiting to be uncovered!
@@fytos76 oh really?!?! That’s really cool. How many figures and accessories have you collected so far? I was really into He-Man and the rubber WWF action figures mostly. G.I. Joe was pretty cool as well but those WWF and Masters of the Universe figures were something else.
It's crazy aye i thought no way flawless hard to believe it's coming into 40years yikes ouch getting old suxs what we feeling more and more and times.I love to return in spirit and never leave with stuff like these and others deserves the list is endless to many words to describe another dimension portal World was alive and happening whoever take a stand including these kids like us and everyone that was around we had 2channels video games food video tapes cartoons toys u name it tv shows music ads etc etc scale class and league level than any other in history decade years era etc etc it solely deserves to live on forever and ever eternity i say 80s 80s
me to im 38 and i wht to get them to i can't wait.dam those action figures i just wht to cry.i wht them bad.i hope that u keep them in good care.joe bye
Hi guys! I am 47 and still collecting these awesome action figures due mainly to the rememberings involved with my childhood.... Thanks for upload this great treasure!!
This is the best decade to play toys. As you can see in the ads, both the parents and kids can play together. Nowadays, the kids prefer smartphones or tablets and rarely play toys together with their parents.
Mossman was one of the few characters Mattel specifically advised kids NOT to put the slime on. They knew it would be tough to clean the flocked material...but a lot of kids did it anyway.
I found a Stinkor in a box buried at a comic book store recently and he STILL smelled exactly like he did when I had one back in 85. Toys aren’t made like these anymore.
Miss those days. I had almost all the action figures. I had kept Castle Grayskull with me till I passed high school in 1999 but then sadly it just got infested and i had to throw it away. Battle cat was my fav and i had 3 of those
I'll never forget Christmas in 1985 when my parents/Santa got me attack tracks... I'll never forget how happy I was. I still have it and it still works, but it's in terrible condition from sitting in storage for so many years.
cool trip down memory lane , cant help thinking how they pumped out those figures and all that cash that was made , all i have left is stinkor and still smells like patchouli lol
Well, this commercial reminds me when surprisingly my mom bought me Skeletor first...when she came home after work, and then she bought me He-man, also the battle cat. What a wonderful childhood memories. Love u mom!
Stonedar and Rock-On...special powers = getting high and going to concerts Extendar, with the power to increase his reach by 10% Modulon, it only just now occurred to me they called him that because he was, modular. I guess I didn't know that word as a kid Dragon Walker, "oh no, there is a 3 foot wide gap, how will we ever get across it? if only we had a slow moving, overly complicated designed, inefficient moving vehicle that was exactly long enough to bridge the gap... wait, we do!" Ivan Drago is He-Man The Most Powerful Man in the Universe "Skeletor, I vill break you!"
