New Zealand Crunchie Train

[acdc123107]

thumbs up who evers watching in 2012

[ejvideos07]

I guess the one dislike is from Nestle's Milky Bar Kid - missed out on all the action.

[mikhail1970]

I think we blew NZ's budget for 50 years making this but it was sure worth it. Let the next generation make a better one.

[malcolm050572]

A classic ad i think it was the kingston flyer awesome ad brings back memories hahaha the granny at the end my favourite was the indian and preist !!!

[mikeshearer1250]

I miss them days.

[RockFaerie555]

@ASTobin I had actually forgotten about that! xD I must of been like 3 or 4 at the time though.

They were the best.

[subz555]

One of my all time fav old NZ TV ads

[WallySimmonds]

You just don't get awesome ads like this anymore.

[HMservant]

I remember this ad....

[ihinarap]

Has anyone got the lyrics to the ad?

[TheAllSeeingThumb]

I MISS THIS ADD!!! Twas just awsome.

[latte123]

This ad is the BEST ad EVER! It is an absolute legend here in NZ!

[balaz08]

i loved watching the full version when i was younger. how time flys =( soo much good memories bk in the days! crunchie WAS a favourite,just not the same anymore

[bloodgoast]

[888JNR]

BEST ADD OF ALL TIME!!

[wonderdaylove]

Fuckin hell this brings back so many memories lol

This Ad is so freakin BADASS.

[Yumoshrub]

The woman that played the 'granny' was my mother's primary school teacher in the 50's. Apparently she would lock kids in the broom closet if they misbehaved in class!! Can't get away with that now!!

[lilymacs]

when i was a kid I used to get really excited when this ad came on telly, especially if they played the full version.

[StealthFB22]

I love that song. I think I may have a Crunchie right now haha.

[inkswithbrush]

I suddenly feel like a Crunchie.

[powerquestuk]

great ad, well shot and a catchy tune you cant go wrong, plus a great product !!!! go KIWIS

[TargetOnMyBackTOMB]

There are a lot of superlative comments on Youtube, but that has to be the greatest commercial ever made. I remember it from living in NZ between 1975 and 1979, and I think it was towards the end of that time - 78 or 79 maybe. Absolute classic, well done to the creators.

[pickledpork]

Can we get the Colemans Spongy Pud ad put on youtube? Featured 3 fat sons with "Mumble" scoffing spongy puds.

[Hefferwoolf]

lifes a whole long journey bar and before you grow too old ,dont miss the oppurtunity to strick a little gold , out west the folks are pushin you the way to make it stop is quick to draw your crunchie bar and fill em full of choc , have a crunchie , hocky pocky bar golden crunchie your hockey pockey bar ..............What lyrics for a classic New Zealand ad we are just sooo bloody creatively great ...they dont make ads like this any more ,come on NZ bring them back !

[klo029]

omg...this is the first ad i watched when i arrived in nz in 1990s....I remebered i bought one of the crunchie bar 1B5 exercise book...lol

[theryanator]

this is the pinnacle of advertisement, nay, human achievement!

[fire2faith]

god this brings back memories

[pickledpork]

You little beautie!

[nathan6466]

that was filmed in upper hutt

[ianturpie]

I'm teaching a unit on ads to some students in Japan, and am having a blast trawling through all the old Kiwi classics. You beauty!

[KiwiGhost]

Brings back the memories

[id46]

That was a choice cuzzy bro ad hadnt seen for so long back in the days of old school

[DrLeavingsoon]

Damn me but I missed this ad!

HAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Played it til the tears were coming out my ears!

[panzr]

Classic!

[cra1gf]

The ad won't play again on TV due to the fact that they stole/copied/ripped off a whole lot of movie material to complete the ad (one of the movies was Von Ryans Express).

Playing this again on TV would result in Cadbury being sent letters by the sort of lawyers whom own medium sized islands.

[smartcooky99]

Rubbish! This ad played on NZ TV & in movie theaters for over 4 years. Scenes from "Von Ryan's Express" were used by permission of Mark Robson Productions and 20thC Fox. Scenes from Cheyenne (WB) and Geronimo (MGM) was also by permission. The only footage with no consent was two short sepia toned B&W clips at 1:01 from a 1914 silent movie "Sitting Bull the Hostile Indian Chief". The production company (American Rotograph) has not existed since 1915. The Company Principals were unknown.

[smartcooky99]

My mistake. It was more like 14 years the ad ran for.

[lobodana]

best ad ever best singer ever Murray Grindlay thanks kiwi magic

[KahuNui]

WoW a blast from the past is this add - & yep - just had a crunchie bar myself today too (still taste great)
