I agree 100% -- the WOW Lazer Tag ads were the best. They set the standard and established Lazer Tag as a household brand name. They were by far the most expensive toy commercials ever created at the time. Last I knew (about 2002) they still held that spot, and I suspect they still hold it. It says a lot that when Tiger Electronics picked up the Lazer Tag license in the 1990's, they re-used the old WOW ads and just added some cut shots showing the new gear in closeup.
the teaser ad that showed the players suiting up and leaving the area, it was maybe a 20 second ad but sold me on the product, it had a very cool look and feel to it, that really got my interest, and it still stands out in my mind, the 'full' version of that ad was great, and the follow up one with the skateboarders and guys on atv was awesome, i still look for this ads that are download , what ads can you say that after 25-30 years, people can enjoy them, and it's product for that matter...
Interesting. The music is so close to the Anthem version that it sounds like it might be the same only without the words. I like this version better. :)
I love playing Lazer tag! There's very few things that I find more fun!

Yeah it could easily be the same music. I've changed the video description to reflect that, thanks for the catch!
