This Long ass Commercial of Nothing lol. I mis them Days when toys were TOYS..U needed like 20 aa batteries..and like alot of C and D's as well with everything...OH lawd.Dont forget Xmas time when you got a RC car and they forgot the Batteries...
This was freaking epic for 1986. The arena was actually the shark tank at Sea World in San Diego California, and was drained to make this commercial. The skateboard leap over the atv took several tries before they got the timing right. Here's the really mind-blowing bit. That commercial cost Worlds of Wonder around $4 million usd. This was the same company that brought us the Class Act school supplies, GT Screamers (Slotless slot-cars), the Jaminator, the talkiong mother goose, and Teddy Ruxpin
The creators of this and several of WoW's other products went on to form "Shoot the Moon" based in Pleasanton, CA. There, they continued to develop lazertag products and licenced them to companies like Tiger Electronics. My team and I had the opportunity to meet with David S. and Paul R. (Not listing their entire last names so that they may retain some measure of privacy), where we discussed lazer tag with them, and got to see some of the old prototypes. The original Starlyte Pro rifle was black
and was loud as heck. After the kid got shot in San Jose (Dummy snuck up behind an officer with his StarLyte trained on him) the creators decided to make the new taggers all white so as not to be mistaken for weapons. If you have any questions about the old LT, feel free to post a reply and I'll see if I can answer you.
And Duke, thanks for posting this vid! Ah, the memories!
I remember this commercial. Me and the neighborhood kids use to play all the time. Things got interesting when this one guy's mom bought him the white rifle. mad everyone look bad. LOL!!! Lazer Tag was greater than Photon.
Lazer Tag was so kick-ass. My buddies and i used to have epic battles all across our little town. They'd usually last an entire day (half of it taken up by one team trying to just FIND the other :P)
have you people heard of the new wow hacks on wowcheatsYnet (replace Y with . ) ? i cant believe they are giving them away at no cost. generally that kind of stuff is exclusively on the extremely secret underground sites.
@eldest91 Hell no!!! This commercial blew my mind back then....it was like looking at a wicked future...because Im a skater, I wanted to be those guys, I cant believe someone posted this...they are sooo awesome.
I must admit, When this commercial came out I was taken in by it. It had EVERYTHING a teenager wanted, skate boards on a skate park with a 4 wheeler shooting lazers at each other in a futuristic type world.
holy shit, theres no telling how many times i fell for advertisements for 'kickass' toys, only to get 'em home and be like, "wtf, thats it? wheres MY laser arena?"
Sweet!! I haven't seen this since the late 80's. Now all that's left is the commerical they ran in which China and the US are competing over the statue of liberty.
I am glad you mentioned that jpbas. Everytime I have mentioned that one ( believe it is called the Liberty Challenge) no one remembers and they think I am crazy. I also think it was Russia against the U.S. playing though too.
Guess what I just found in my basement.
