RickR Posted June 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 This one's a bit more obscure. "The Baseball Kid". Probably memorable to me because of the southern accent on the singing, which sounded a little unusual here in Portland in the 1980's. It worked though...I wanted one.

nosweargamer Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Did any toy have a catchier tune than My Buddy? I never cared much for the doll, but man, that jingle got stuck in my head.

(Bonus point for the "after these messages" jingle at the beginning) I still sing "My Buddy" once in a while. And I totally overdo it...just like the kid in the commercial. If I ever go on "The Voice" or one of these TV Shows....this is going to be my "go-to" song choice. nosweargamer and Rowsdower70 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowsdower70 Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Hamburger commercials are the best. I think I posted this one before, but its a favorite. I guess it was regional though.

Atari Adventure Square Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Given my long-running love of this tasty product, it's not surprising I'd look it up and find one of its root commercial from the early 70s, where my other addiction - Television - was starting to kick in and dropped me into this conceptually-pleasing candy formula, much like the accidental alchemy in this output: Justin, RickR and Rowsdower70 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
