80's Super Naturals Toy Commercial 1

[ijasop]

was there a Super Naturals tv series?

[Spidrax]

@ijasop No. However, there was a Visionaries animated series.

[acrovader]

apart from the hologram feature, these are actually quite crappy figures.

[Litshttam]

I recall the British commercials for Super Naturals having a rather sinister soundtrack.

[SPOOKYSKULL13]

@Litshttam We had a song in Australia too. Did the British one go something like this? (Sung with torch held under chin) Mystical Warriors in the night Suuuuupernaturals! Good and evil Ghostlings fight Suuuuupernaturals! Lionheart the valiant Knight Becomes a Lion in ghostly light Spooky Skull is a horrible sight! Suuupernaturals! Is it a ghost? Is it a man? Ahh ha ha ha it a hologram! Suuuuupernaturals! If anyone has the Australian version post!

[Litshttam]

@SPOOKYSKULL13 I remember some doom-laden piano notes... and yeah, the Suuuupernaturals bit! Ah, the memories, lol!

[womblewandering]

@SPOOKYSKULL13

Hahah

Yeah i remember that song too. It always stuck in my mind cos it was very sinister. Yes it went suuuuupernatural...boom boom...boom boom....suuuuuupernatural..... lol. I used to have lionheart and am now searching ebay for it.

[bmandrake01]

wow.. any gimmic like holograms and glow in the dark plastic would grab the attention of kids back in the 80's.

[Zac6230]

@bmandrake01 yes thats what sold a toy with a cool feature

[bmandrake01]

@Zac6230 we had low expectations back then...

[Zac6230]

@bmandrake01 I had one and I loved it ! it was a great toy !

[bmandrake01]

@Zac6230 yeah it was great until you saw the rich kid down the block with a fucking voltron or a fortress maximus then you look at you're shit and you say to yourself... fuck you, santa!

[suckahpleez]

@bmandrake01 haha

[katakisLives]

These toys were the best! they incorporated two things I really loved! stuff that glowed in the dark and holograms! all I have left is one of the action figures and some of the glow in the dark weapons including that sword! I would buy some more if I ever found them.

[808jspekeg6]

I had a few of these figures as a kid. Boy were they boring to play with.

[XSouthXNightX]

Tonka? The truck toy thing? XD

[kanarvin]

These toys owned! Thanks for posting.

[stimpyx1]

I had em all.

Oh to be young in the 80's....great days.

[erracht]

Holograms sure were cool back in the day...never had these toys but remember how neat they looked in the commercials.

[ryratt]

"Take this!"

"Aaaaaaa-[snip]"



[nickiz1]

[demonkai76]

@GESSO217

[womblewandering]

@GESSO217

[Jsparrow350]

Holyshit! I forgot all about these things.

[demonkai76]

@Jsparrow350

lol hell yeh me too for a sec whle i was looking for the Krusher monster toy

[johnafirth]

Damn, I had one of these. Was there a toon too, or just the toys?

[EDGARone619KING]

I had the ugliest one of these bastards and it used to scare the shit out of me...

[smiles877]

i remember moving a few years ago and finding a bunch of these and tried to explain what they were. and really even seeing this...i am lost.lol

[vomitrelish]

visionnaries were much better articulated same armature as gi-joes but the supernaturals had better holograms.

[apex2000]

legionares had same gymic just on shields

[hypnodance]

I remember these! :D

[dm6testa777]

i had that knight dude and a ghost as a youngsta u brought back memerios with this video

[kiminster]

these came a while before visionaries. Both were pretty good, but neither took off sadly.

[mroracal]

I bought everyone for .25 a piece at skycity in the bargin bin

[medog2020]

@mroracal Sell them to me for .5 a piece.

[firekind1980]

holograms are still cool. i used to have the comics but stupidly i cut the competition from the back pages to try and win bat bopper.

[victordls]

i dont remember this, but im willing to bet these are the same guys who created "VISIONARIES"

[zdoering]

@victordls Actually Hasbro did visionaries and Tonka did these although I admit there are some striking similarities I actually had both as a child and loved them greatly.

[stubby019]

Greatest toys I ever had.

[SatansMullet]

fuck i LOVED THESE!!!!!

[zoist80]

I used to have these when I was a kid. I loved that hologram stuff. There was another one I used to love called Visionaries. They had that hologram stuff too. You pulled this commercial straight from the archives. Good job and thanks for posting it.

[atomicmask]

I had the main badguy, the bad guy vehicle (A wrecker with a spike ball on a chain and a grave yard in the grill) and the Tomb of doom. I loved these toys.

[stoningtonj]

i never got into these when i was a kid...i remember buying some gi joe style figs that had holograms on them tho...

[arock7]

Those kids are frickin' intense!

[texaswerewolf]

Damn! Now this brings back memories! I used to have lionheart and a few of those minions. Thanks for posting this!

[Litshttam]

The Super Naturals ads shown in Britain had an eerier soundtrack, as I recall.

[InsideTheMind316]

HOLY CRAP DUDE! Thanks for putting this up...I remembered having a few of these when I was in Kindergarten but I had NO idea what they were called. Thanks a million!

[MegaVolcano]

1988, the year of the hologram toys.

[themadhatter34]

i loved super naturals as a kid they was great i can recall that they had a funny small about them

[justypunk311]

I had a couple of those guys. I think i actually had the two advertised.

[mnap128]

So satanic as a kid

[9998833]

i remember...that is enough!!!

[dueyfinnn]

these do bring back some memories you tube has everything on here amazing

[MKD825]

I had a couple of these. Like Visionaries, they were pretty unremarkable toys as far as the hologram was concerned and your imagination did most of the work. Not a bad thing, especially in this unimaginative day and age.

[CosmicUndeadElf]

Wow I got a few of these when I was like 3 years old haha

[xxxarcher20]

probly worth something because there old noting much more kinda dumb not gay they are just so dumb

[EbayFigureReviews777]

[legendofmetal777]

[DanteVandal]

I still have the doom car thing...somewhere

[legendofmetal777]

[BILLCLINTONMECH]
