Lazer Tag Commercial

Pint-sized space marines! LOL!!!

XD

[flexor212000]

These aren't prototypes. I still have the gun and the helmet.

[PublicJohn]

@flexor212000 Yeah they are. Look at the pistol. No narrow/wide beam switch. No battery cover. The Starsensor is the prototype that was shown at Tagfest a few years ago. The helmet has different LED lights and the hat sensor also is a prototype.

[Peroleum]

@PublicJohn I have the set, to this day, in my basement. I remember playing with them as a little kid.

[Niche79]

I still have my gun somewhere in one of my boxes haha. And to look back now and LOL at wanting more sensors on your body so your easier to get shot, damn I was stupid! haha 1 sensor is much harder to hit esp when they never face you or shoot sideways like I did as a kid!

[Girlwiththeyeti]

THE ROBOT IS MY DAD!!!!!

[FFarwell]

holy shit, this music is intense.

[mycurse333]

I had a set of these but the vest peice that picks the gun up was black

[dholmlund]

Where did this video come from??

[PublicJohn]

@dholmlund It was a Promotional video for Coke on an VHS tape I bought from ebay. It also had a TV commercial on the tape. You are right about the sensor. The prototype was brought to a TagFest along with the prototype black Starlyte Pro rifle. I think I may have some pics of it someplace

Time index 0:49 the starsensor actually sold is slightly different in design. This version still looks okay...

[tourniquette1988]

@ichgo333 I love the future. :D

[ichgo333]

I already set my calendar for 3010!

[ichgo333]

poor trigger i guess i'd be depressed if i had to pulled on all day

[nolosk8s]

so cheesy

[brendameistar]

god damn misleading ad, i'll sue them.

[PublicJohn]

Well I think you are joking but just in case...Worlds Of Wonder have been gone for 18 years. Mostly because they got sued!

[brendameistar]

lol, birth of misleading ads

[PublicJohn]

Yeah good thing is was not one. Just something made for Toy Fair over 20 years ago. Very cheesy But if you did not buy a set of these back in 1985 you really missed out on a lot of fun

[chibz777]

That commercial was so bad that I would not buy that.

[Sol0070]

no comment...

[Jshaw71]

too bad they didn't use the models they had on the back of the packages to do this ad instead of 2 toddlers, lord, oh well... thanks for the video though

[Maxwelldoggums]

dearest of gods, hey look so stupid.

[CovertCombat]

How disappointed would those kids have been when they got their new lazer tag guns home from the shop and found they didn't really fire flashy "lazers" as were shown on the commercial?!!!

[PublicJohn]

Well I found out that this was never a commercial but rather a promo piece for Coke. So kids watching TV would have never seen it. BUt yes if it had been that would have been a big let down.

[miguelhenriquezg]

i felt really dissapointed because of the lack of beams, i remember i even tried in totaldarkness and nothing! anyway the game was great too bad not many kids had it here in el salvador.

[dx9s]

It's both classic and modern (from a marketing stand point). This kind of marketing works for the intended audience (young up to teenaged boys). I hope the current marketing team (Phoenix:LTX) has reviewed all the old materials like this :P

[PoPoNellie]

This looks like an in-house promotional video for the Lazer Tag product. This was probably shown at Toy Fairs and Trade Shows before the actual product shipped. I say that mainly because the Starsensor in the video is the prototype model, they changed it for the actual release.

[geenlung]

the future is a scary place indeed...just look at those kids with oversized heads =P
