@@tenacious645 Ashens has averaged 177k views on his last 12 videos and not all of those views were even from his subs because his channel isn't unlisted. Stop pretending that sub counts mean anything. If you have 1.4m subs but only 177k views, then 1.2m of those subs are demonstrably meaningless and worthless. It's also worth considering that Internet Historian has 1.9m subs, while averaging 4m views per video. Sub counts mean nothing about channel size, _especially_ with a channel as old as Ashens.. hell a good 100k of Ashens' subs have probably died IRL.

Switch on chargertron, robots like you never seen. Switch on chargertron, supersonic machine. Ram the meater till it’s red, launch out the tracker. Switch on chargertron, now it's an attacker. Switch on chargertron, always changing, Rearranging. He surprising, he Disguising. Chargertron

This sure brings back very fond childhood memories. I have always loved the jingle and as a kid I would find myself singing to myself whenever I was alone. I have never owned this toy so I have zero idea what it was like to have and to play with but it sounded awesome. BTW does anyone know who/whom did the jingle?
The first few takes of the song he sounded excited and thrilled, but after the tenth he got more and more defeated. Especially after they showed him the advert it was going to soundtrack.
I just bought an unopened charger tron for my 80s toy collection. Was not a fun toy to have as a kid, pretty boring, but I had one and remember it well.
Omfg!! I have been singing this wrong for YEARS Switch on tryger tron That's what I always thought it was! I was born in 81, and remember this commercial well This and "My name's ice cream jones.... I'm giving the kids some ice cream cones"!!
I never was interested in this toy as a kid nor did I ever know anyone to have one or even speak of it. I actually purchased one recently meant on the card. I do not have any plans on opening it. it is not worth anything, I only paid $10 for it. it's just a neat little thing to add to my collection of random 80s transforming robots.
Ashens did get the lyrics wrong indeed
LMAO

Imagine Optimus saying, "Protagatrons, roll out!"
I can't stop watching this now. The song is almost hypnotic, but I really can't get over the names "protagotron" and "antagotron"
Song been on mental repeat for me since about 85.
"It's from a parallel universe where Devo wrote commercial jingles for confusing toys."
Here after watching Nostalgia Critic ain't we ^^

You must charge it..... Charge it good.
Thank you ashens for this masterpiece.
Lol i expected you.
Always commenting
Justin Y. You know him?!
DAMNIT JUSTIN
Ok I think you’re just multiple people on the same account
"An excellent toy"
HE LIED!
Another lie: "Robots like you've never seen."
It started out as Devo, then it sounded like a dalek is trying to get funds to build a doomsday device by scamming kids.
This is the most accurate comment I've ever read on UA-cam.
“Protagotron and Antagotron”...? Might as well call them “Herobot and Villainbot” or “Good Thing and Evil Thing”
Antagotron is a fuckin fantastic name, 11/10
except who builds such evil robots, who could do nothing but turn on their creators, evidently having been programmed for evil
What if I told you antagotron was the protagonist
Well, I mean, they literally did call them that.
Who’s here from Nostalgia Critic?
Me :)
Clean out the vacuum now

You saw it too, huh? Did you see Ashens' video on this, as well?
Quite alarming this is scaring

This video's gonna blow up thanks to Ashens.
Yep,
No it isn't. His channel really isn't that big.
Even if it was, you'll have forgotten about this video by next week anyway.
@@doubtfulguest5450 he has 1.4 million subs. I don't know what you think the word big means

didn't happen
Nostalgia critic anyone?
Poor child Ashens never stood a chance.
now, if only there was a review of this tat by some east-anglian bloke who forgot to link this advert to his own video. hmmmmmmm
I can think of one, but he did link it. we must find another
He did link it.
Lol some fan you are mate didn’t even watch to the end of the video

This is gonna get so much more views because of NC's latest commercial video
That is awesome! Reminds me also of something that would be produced today, mocking *some* of the 80s (the way the guy sang).
With names like "Antagatron", it really does sound like a parody of an 80's toyline!
This is the ultimate form of catfishing... Those poor children. lmao

Holy shit

Protagatron and Antagotron.
Real creative names.😆
ive never hated a lie more in my life
Oh No, It's Cheap-o!
An excellent advertisement.
Ashens brought me here, the bastard..
rode the link in, terrible, no bar or dining coach
I made the mistake of switching on Chargertron back in 1984, and it ruined my life forever.
Ashens brought me here.
rode the link in , bumpy landing, almost spilled my beverage
Bloody hell, it's Buddy L.
Put this over anything and its good
well thanks ashens the ad was just as bad as the product
he never disappoints. a mark of quality entertainment

I have never owned this toy so I have zero idea what it was like to have and to play with but it sounded awesome. BTW does anyone know who/whom did the jingle?
It is catchy! The closest thing to an answer for you would be: a big fan of DEVO
If I got this for Christmas as a kid, I would have burst into tears.
Who is hear from Ashens? Devo song ha ha
Everyone XD
are we not men?
WE ARE CHARGER TRON.
Who here from Nostalgia Critic?
Me!!!

We can all thank the youtube god, Ashens, and the youtube Titan, Nostalgia Critic, for bringing us here.
An excellent commercial.

Thanks nostalgia Critic I'm now getting links to all of these commercials =D
Nice transformers ripoff commercial
Like that song!
8 years later, and this guy's video suddenly got a whole lot more popular thanks to Ashens.
and also 1 year later thanks to Nostalgia Critic. xD
This is from the 80s
Damn, a lot of people have been watching this amazing commercial lately.
Garbage toy, catchy commercial
I'd probably want that as a kid too. That song is catchy.

Eyy folks from @Ashens!
They really had to milk all of its features to the max just for the commercial, huh?
Okay the robots in age of extinction are now called chargertrons
uh actually their official name is KSI drones
I DON’T CARE!
I just bought an unopened charger tron for my 80s toy collection. Was not a fun toy to have as a kid, pretty boring, but I had one and remember it well.
That chargertron song never gets old.
Anybody else saw this BEFORE Ashens made a video about it and thought "this looks just like the kind of thing Ashens would make a video about"?
why didnt transformers do something like this back then???
She's a model and she's looking good
🎶🎵
you had to be very good at Christmas to get both the Chargertrons. ant and pro, tagatron.....and batteries.
Nostalgia critic sent me after this.
Laziest names ever
The song is amazing
Really wish I could have seen the view count from a day ago.
It was 15,883 last night :).
I refuse to believe this wasn' by Devo. I will not be convinced!
Now i can see why Ashens wanted one as a child XD
Omfg!!
I have been singing this wrong for YEARS
