Hope the then child actors who appeared in this classic commercial of "Battleship" would see and think of the movie adaptation of "Battleship" coming to theaters in Summer 2012?
fucking great thanks for uploading this one. I grew up watching this ad on TV back in the late 60's/early 70's, and this ad was on all the time. Imprinted in my brain, I randomly googled the game and found this. just wack.
hey i have that SAME EXACT type of battleship at my grandmas house so when ever like on thanksgiving or christmas we gothere, i whup my brothrs and cousns butts at it... thats like the best version, i just got u-build battleship yestersay and let me tell you, its SOOOO confusing, you have many types of lego blocks and 3 diff type of miss and hit stick, also red cones you replace weapons with the fire red cones... CONFUSING
This was a '70s commercial. When the original box cover with the father and son playing while the mother and daughter washed dishes in the kitchen came out in 1967, there was an earlier commercial with two Navy guys playing while nautical music played in the background and a sotto voce announcer described it. Another man came in, said "What's goin' on here?" , one player said "He sank my battleship!", and the first man opened his mouth while a horn sounded.
Yes that was Ricky Paull Goldin as a very young lad..probably around 7 or 8, Ricky just turned 42 this year, so it probably aired sometime in 1975 or so.
I believe the boy who says "Aw, you sunk my battleship" is none other than Ricky Paull Goldin (when he was a young lad) from the soap All My Children! He's an awesome actor on it now!
Now in that commercial they have a red and blue one is that the oldest one? Cause I remember seeing it once in a package at good will but the box was to messed up for me. I did find a good condition one from not 1986
CLASSIC! Especially the kid falling backwards into the drink! I LOVE it!

That just might be real war coverage at the beginning of this commercial.

My mom has/had this version of Battleship. I played it as a kid. Good memories.

It's likely from 1967/1968 as the box featured in the commercial was printed in 1967.
Otherwise no date was published.

@deftmahatma No, this is from the early 1970's, not 1968.
