[marioTmaggot]

What the hell is Websters dad doing on a transformers commercial? This is one that I must have missed back then.

[classicfreeze72]

yup..webster dad..lol

[TheTVTastic]

Is that the Dad from Webster? IS THAT GEORGE PAPADAPOLIS?! Why did his wife look like a lesbian on that show?

[6plastic]

@TheTVTastic because he was gay! just kidding

[TheTVTastic]

@6plastic HA!

[NintendoMachine1]

I had the encore optimus prime, but he and the entire house burned down to the ground...:(

[MikeyMcCrashCap]

If only I had a job back then, and could buy whatever I wanted!!!

[classicfreeze72]

@MikeyMcCrashCap lol..only if we all did :)

[sharkslope]

Oh Shit here comes Mongo!



[TheSkeptic1976]

I still have most of mine. My first transformer was the autobot Bluestreak. I think I got in in 1984 the first year Transformers came out. Can't believe how long ago that was.

[MikeyMcCrashCap]

@TheSkeptic1976 I had Bluestreak too. Couldn't figure out why mine was solid gray, yet called "Bluestreak."

[ihategobots7]

well, now i know where black friday came from!

[PLEASANTDesigns]

Who'd think, even 25+ years later and they are still popular. By far the the greatest toy ever created. To the Japanese I take my hat off out of respect. Thank you. Asian people are very great.

to bad hasbro cant do good ads like this any more.

[MrSteelDream]

Thanks for uploading this,I never saw it when I was a kid, but this awesome.

[delta38vader]

this time grandpa said "ROBOTS IN DISGUISE!" lololololol-

[ihavesexforhappymeal]

Classic!

He is also a hall of fame offensive lineman, which I only found out a few years ago. Never would have guessed it from seeing him on Webster. Apparently he had a mean streak as a player.

[xammas1245]

Never mind that shit! Here comes Mongo!

[MDthornton83]

Transformers had the best toys a child could ever have.

[Jshaw71]

wow... that's a pretty straight forward ad, no BS here, 'buy them now' ...

[elchicho25]

He got rid of Webster in order to afford all those Autobots...

[kizzmac]

This is my first time seeing this Transformer's commercial.

[billybones627]

I saw an episode of Webster and Webster was playing with a transformer.

[robots1]

funny i saw this commercial once and i am a grown tf collector and i remember them airing this during the holidays but it was night time.

[knowpassword]

Buy them.. BUY THEM NOW!!

[Taylorvision745]

Alex Karras advertising the Transformers? Wow!!!

[schwelty]

SOMEONE GIVE HIM THE GREEN EYES

[Alexdarkland]

I remember having at least 95% of the transformers in this commercial. What made me look up this commercial is a helluva coincidence. I finished my Sculpey replica of Perceptor (nontransformable) yesterday, and just wached Alex Karras in the M*A*S*H episode `Springtime'.

[LukeDulong]

if only they knew how big these would still be 25+ years later.

[sarujo]

Sure thing Mr. Papadapolis.

[titan511]

Awesome

[9012Ironhide]

What I would give to go back to this time for a year just to buy transformers like this XD

[jon3pnt0]

@ :20 HAHAHA!!! webster;s dad doin the "robots in disguise???" LMAO! that's priceless.

[Teletran35]

I don't remember ever seeing this commercial back in the day

[Metlhd313]

Alex Karras doing the "robots in disguise" voice, I love the 80s.

[dloch85]

Hasbro trying to control the Primetime media during the middle 80s.

[Griff1319]
