Honda had us all weepy-eyed with nostalgia during its first run of holiday ads this year that used our favourite ’80s toys to lure us into buying a car. The strategy probably didn’t convince every child of the ’80s to run out and buy a new ride, but that’s ok because it means Honda just keeps churning out more of these wonderful commercials.
The latest versions feature Skeletor frolicking with He-Man, trying to convince us the two are best of friends. G.I. Joe and Jem in a heart-tugging duet, and Gumby and Pokey exploring a house while singing their hearts out. When it comes to selling cars, these are the kinds of celebrity endorsements we really want to see. [YouTube (Honda) via Tastefully Offensive]
