Before I saw the movie, these commercials made me believe that characters like Klaatu and Weequay were much more important to the story than they ended up being.
I'm 49 years old, and this compilation is tempting me to remove my Star Wars figures from their shelves and play with them in my backyard! 😄 These commercials really takes me back to those wonderful, magical years gone by.
you know I edited out the entire ewok battle and the movie doesn't even miss it? LOL I wanted that wicket doll so much...even though it started in the lat 70's...the early 80's star wars stuff can't be beat. After Jedi we still got the ewok movies and the two cartoon shows...not mention we either rented the movies or watched/taped them off tv... can't beat it. It may be popular today but the early 80's peak was awesome. Indy and spielberg on it's way...and all the cartoons n toys n cereal and tv shows...cowabunga dude!
Remember when kids played outside..............Now if a phone or electronic device is not in a childs hand they hate the world............Thank god i was a 80s child.
I remember making an imperial bunker out of a styrofoam cup, after seeing the one they used in this commercial with the Biker Scout, because it seemed like such a cool idea. But no one told me they used a LARGE cup so the figure could actually stand up in it, so my Biker Scout was always hunched over, trying to fit in it. Anyone else notice the voiceover guy -- at least for sure in the first commercial -- is the same guy who did the Transformer cartoon narrations and episode recaps?
Dude I TOTALLY did the same thing, but for me I always tried to replicate the plastic bucket of similar size for the sarlac pit from the second commercial
These ads Rule! From all three movies would love to see or know who all of the actors are etc.....like where are they kind of thing!! God to think besides Wil Wheaton hey I was a kid in the old Star Wars Kenner ads!!! That's an Idol or All-Star status there ha!!
They always made it look like so fun to play outside with the figures.But everytime I took them outside I was either bothered by another kid asking what I'm playing.Or I would get embarrassed if an adult or a cute girl from my class would go by..I was 11(almost 12)when Jedi came out..So I was getting a little long in the tooth..
I wonder how many people in the world have that Emperor Palpatine figure and how much it's worth. My dad threw away our Star Wars toys one time when we were moving. Sad. If only he'd known! We could have paid for college most likely.
I was a HUGE fan of the Transformer toys. As for Star Wars, I had a couple ships, but wasn't really into the figures of the characters (I think I had a TIE fighter, and a B-Wing)
How come the return of the Jedi commercials' audio is so much stronger Than the EMPIRE STRIKES BACK audio in the commercials. It's like that all over UA-cam.? Somebody somewhere must have. had A strong vcr in the late 70s . Bring back beta
5:37 "Rebo's got the beat" ... Going beyond the amusing line - the unfamiliar 'beat' in said advertisement now an apparent early red flag for movie soundtrack inconsistencies / butchery.
TheRubberStudiosASMR Nope. There was no Mon Mothma, Oola, Slave Leia, Ewok Village Leia, Janus Greejatus(2nd Imperial Dignitary), Giran(2nd Rancor Keeper), Ekelarc Yong(Y-Wing pilot), Yarna d'al' Gargan(8-breasted dancer), Wedge Antilles... I could list a good 20+ more, but I hope you catch my drift ;-)
The problem was there was no really good bases or structures. Kenner could of designed a good Jabba Palace, or enemy bases or rebel bases which would have made some of the toys more interesting. GI Joe did a better job of this in my opinion.
3:06 Probably should have said "That you put together" instead of "You have to put it together". It just sounds so unappealing that way. 5:30 So the Empire's game is matching characters. 7:50 everyone's favorite Robot Chicken character
I remember being disappointed that the Boushh figure didn't come with a big marble.
Before I saw the movie, these commercials made me believe that characters like Klaatu and Weequay were much more important to the story than they ended up being.
wrong figures names, wrong figures riding wrong vehicles. I love it.
Surprise!suprise! I'm Lando in disguise!
Man the size of that thermal detonator @6:31 would surely also had destroyed Alderaan....
Ouh yeah...our childhood...a long, long time ago... still great...
This video makes me want to sit on the floor in my pajamas two feet away from the TV and eat a big bowl of sugary cereal.
I'm 49 years old, and this compilation is tempting me to remove my Star Wars figures from their shelves and play with them in my backyard! 😄 These commercials really takes me back to those wonderful, magical years gone by.
and this is the real reason why they had ewoks in the movie
you know I edited out the entire ewok battle and the movie doesn't even miss it?

@@DJRitty welcome to the club ! I even named my first kitten cindel
I always loved the end of the Star Wars theme after each commercial.
Remember when kids played outside..............Now if a phone or electronic device is not in a childs hand they hate the world............Thank god i was a 80s child.
I had the b-wing. What a beautiful toy that was
I love these commercials! Classic!
Emperial Shuttle was the nuts
No one did mass marketing in this scale until George came along.
" this tale will make you sorryer"
+Zayd Aldoais And Threepio falls like a child.
*Sorrier
I wonder where these actors are now? It would be cool to hear their recollections of the process.
"The Rebels won't 'tire until they see the last of the Empire!"
Take a shot for every time you hear those words you'll be wasted by the end of the video

Oh yeah good eye lol
Does sound like him. Victor Caroli, or something like that.
Dude I TOTALLY did the same thing, but for me I always tried to replicate the plastic bucket of similar size for the sarlac pit from the second commercial
My Childhood was awesome.
May The Force Be With You!
The force is back and I got the goosebumps.
I used part of a small stick to keep my Rancor's mouth open, just like they did in the commercial. I still have it along with the Rancor monster.
Luke and Lando: *fall in a pit of trash*
Lando: you OK Luke
luke: yea im.....*hears a roar*
At 0:25, the Emperor looks like Rudolf Hess (mainly because of the eyebrows)
Those home made gocarts really made me smile. Awesome.
Open speed flaps and meeooooowwwww!

that tie interceptor vader TOTALY WASNT YODA VADER
This is how children acted before they all started psyche meds. 💊
i wanna just live forever in the early to mid 80s is that possible?
The Emperor looks like Charlton Heston.
The imperial shuttle is huge
kids used to go outsideand play with toys i feel sorry for kids today
they still do that
+I Can Live Forever are you sure about that
yeah
+I Can Live Forever thats promising they seem so addicted to video games
(He finds your lack of faith disturbing...)
Can someone make a version of the movies with the dialogue from these commercials?
the emporer figure sculpt looks like Charleston Heston
That sure sounds like Victor Caroli as the announcer in that first commercial.
8:22 - The B-wing commercial is the one I remember the most during Saturday morning cartoons. I really wanted to get one of those!
1:25 I love the homemade Biker Scout Post!
the bunkers hit bad yea NO SHIT THAT THING FELL APART FROM A ROCK!
Lol...@ 1:41 it show Logray as Chief Chirpa and Cheif Chirpa as Logray...
they were like that but were switched later as were zuckuss and 4 lom
2 & 1/2 minutes left on the cutting room floor in order to get a G rating! ;)
And Return of the Jedi is now officially 40!
YOU put it together!

I want the main Star Wars theme with the ending jingle from this commercial.
Before Nika Futterman voice Sy snootles in special edition
At the 6:30 mark a marble becomes a thermal detonator. 🤣
Before naboo and coruscant were added
Un bellissimo ricordo!!
Free him and keep me instead. Said 3PO never
If you look quickly there are two moments when you see Luke using a blue lightsaber,they decided to change it to green.
Before Steven Spielberg remaster this
0:45 any one notice Luke's new lightsaber is blue?
I was a HUGE fan of the Transformer toys. As for Star Wars, I had a couple ships, but wasn't really into the figures of the characters (I think I had a TIE fighter, and a B-Wing)
Before Steven Spielberg made Jedi rocks
In what special edition did Prune face pilot the Falcon?.
AKA Nein Numb
This one....lol
How come the return of the Jedi commercials' audio is so much stronger
Than the EMPIRE STRIKES BACK audio in the commercials. It's like that all over UA-cam.? Somebody somewhere must have. had
A strong vcr in the late 70s .
Bring back beta
And the band plays on
nice
you all was have to put it to geather and also NERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMMM 3:08
Do you think the offer ended?
Probavly no
Wil Wheaton.
mutation oze:mutates Luke
luke: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh
@ 3:04, things getting a little rocky, Dennis?
14 minutes, yea sure
00:26 L' imperatore!?!
9:28 - 10:00
5:37 "Rebo's got the beat" ...
Going beyond the amusing line - the unfamiliar 'beat' in said advertisement now an apparent early red flag for movie soundtrack inconsistencies / butchery.
It was probably some music in a sample pack since the soundtrack for rotj probably wasn’t complete at the time
Fuck it looks like they made a figurine for every character in the film
TheRubberStudiosASMR Nope. There was no Mon Mothma, Oola, Slave Leia, Ewok Village Leia, Janus Greejatus(2nd Imperial Dignitary), Giran(2nd Rancor Keeper), Ekelarc Yong(Y-Wing pilot), Yarna d'al' Gargan(8-breasted dancer), Wedge Antilles... I could list a good 20+ more, but I hope you catch my drift ;-)
Do ''You Have To Put It Together''
My parents use to get me kenner toys all the time i think it was a good toy brand t
Did George Lucas write this dialogue as well?
soooo cheesy. but so awesome in the 80's
Hi
The problem was there was no really good bases or structures. Kenner could of designed a good Jabba Palace, or enemy bases or rebel bases which would have made some of the toys more interesting. GI Joe did a better job of this in my opinion.
was that peter Griffin at 2:16?
What?! Back then chief chirpa and logray were switched
Supreme Dank Leader Bossk Only in this commercial. On the cards(front & back) they were correct(unlike Zuckuss & 4-LOM).
Why you little evoke, how rude
They're imperials.
They don't make commercials like they used to.
Why is this called 14 minutes of commercials when the length of the video is 11:31? I believe there is some sort of mistake.
Video is 11 minutes not 14!
14 minutos en 11 minutos 31 segundos
do u mean 11 minutes
3:06 Probably should have said "That you put together" instead of "You have to put it together". It just sounds so unappealing that way.
5:30 So the Empire's game is matching characters.
7:50 everyone's favorite Robot Chicken character
Yeah, it cuts off suddenly too. What gives?
'Return of the Jedi' Han Solo was crappy compared to the previous two.
14 minutes
11 mins and 31 sec
STAR WARS SUCKS
