  • Damn. That song was better than 90 percent of the garbage they play on the radio. To say I'm impressed, would not be far from the truth at all.

  • Back when toys where toys, today it's all overpriced china made shit!

  • aNother Vehicle I always wanted but wasnt lucky enough to own.... :(

  • Hasbro should quit trying to make crappy new large vehicles / bases like the RoC PITT and just re-issue the classic ones that actually worked like the Rolling Thunder and the original mobile HQ that Steamroller drove

  • Are those not nuclear missiles it? They have little detachable bombs on them, sort of like how some ICBMs have multiple warheads, albeit under the nose cone.

  • Probably THE career highlight for this band to be on a GI Joe commercial

  • This song is really a blunder, trying to rhyme with one word, thunder.

  • I want jack black to cover this song!!

  • Hope none of those soldiers were fried by the missile launches ;)

  • Machine gun canon?! oh my god they have a cannon that shoots machine guns at their enemies!

  • @Sturmdude NO it is machine gun, cannon

  • @YambidiBlamBlam oh, a machine gun that shoots cannons! That's just as awesome.

  • @Sturmdude No, it has machine guns, and a cannon, and a rocket tower like the song says.

  • @YambidiBlamBlam no I'm pretty sure the machine gun cannon are one and the same, like the song says. I think you need to watch it again brew.

  • @Sturmdude OK then, I concede, maybe you are right. I always thought that the machine gun was the gun up front, not machine gun cannon.

  • I had one of these when I was a kid in the 80's. Good memories! Growing up in the 80's/90's was awesome. Toys now days fuckin suck. Now days suck in general, all the hippies, and yuppie do gooders have completely steralized any kind of fun what so ever.

  • @salemcripple Hun?? wtf are you talking about? Yuppies are from the 80's, hippies from the 70's!

    Plus all the toys I had as a kid (Star Wars, G.I. Joe, Transformers) have been remade in much superior form. The thing is kids don't play with action figures as much and who can blame them? You can imagine a war with plastic soldiers at $10 a piece, or LIVE the adventure on your PS3 or XBOX 360 in photorealistic environments. We would have done the same.

  • @plastique45 really? You're going to sit there and tell me there are no more hippies, or yuppies? Such things are frames of mind, not periods in time. Every "granola person", or treehugger that cares more about the enviroment than they do their own children, is near as makes no difference, a hippie. Every person that only wants a identical house, in the burbs, with two and a half kids is a yuppie, same as they were in the 80's.

  • Machine gun canon and a rocket tower. ROLLING THUNDER IS AN AWESOME POOOOOWWWEEEEERRR!!!! NOBODY BEATS G.I.JOE a REAL AMERICAN HEEERRROOOOOOO.

    I love the way that guy gets realy into it. This is the best toy comercial for the best action figure series ever!

  • This is 1988, not 1992.

  • rolling thunder; cuz having a big metal indestructible vehicle with machine guns all over it wasn't enough! so we added a bunch of canons, and two giant rockets! yea take that cobra commander, take a giant nuclear missile... to the head!

    xD

  • Now this was one awesome toy. I won one of ebay on Thanksgiving year before last almost in perfect condition. They sure don't make them like they used too, cuz the crap they're putting out now sucks big time.

  • machine gun cannon and a rocket tower!! rollin thunders awesome powweer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • Is that you singing Mr. T ?

  • We need something like that in Afghanistan.

  • they were so lucky back then .

  • I need an album of these songs from the gi joe adverts,they make piss lol

  • This sounds like everything Jack Black has ever done. In fact I reckon Hasbro could sue him for his whole career.

  • @AddLies Someone ought to.

  • in mexico named colosso i had one from 1988

  • @kowasky80 Yo también tenía el Coloso. Era la neta absoluta

  • it looks like the scud missle launcher,these toys were amazing

  • I still have mine...greatest GI Joe toy EVAR!!!! Yeah Rolling Thunder!!!!

  • I had one of these bad boys.

    I was so fucking happy when I got it :) bad ass toy

  • I bet you are an emo now who listens to gay italo musix.

    :)

  • When toys were cool.....

  • Holly fuck! It's the voice of Little Caesar's!

  • i don't remember this one but, it's a wonder that tehy didn't keep it off the market since it had missiles on it! LOL!

  • Dang i wonder if anybody would buy this for a good price, i have the vehicle and most of the parts and i think i still have the box in bad condition though, all at my parents house.

  • @rexraym How much you will sell your Rolling thunder?

  • This commercial (and toy) is from 1988, not 1992.

  • HAHA I love the scud missle that pops out

  • glad I never gor rid of it....or the box..

  • The commercial with the SuperTrooper is pretty rad, too.

  • I know. If I'm not mistaken, the Super Trooper commercial (circa 1988) was the first to use incorporate a live-action action scene. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be on YouTube.

  • I like some of the commercials with live action in it. You know the one with Duke being turned into a Cobra Supersoldier

  • no the singer is like jack the black

  • I love the mini animated sequences. Wish they release a DVD with all of em on it! Listenin' Sunbow Entertainment!

  • Ha. Love the way they tweeked the footage to make it look like the recon vehicle fits properly inside when the ramps are folded.

  • This is... special! Lol!

  • One of the better toys from late in the line. But yeah that singer does remind of the Real Men of Genius singer, lol!!!

  • LOL at the singer!!!!! Reminds me of the Bud Light Real Men of Genius singer

  • Wow. I love that song. It's EXTREME.
