Have You Seen These Lost Commercials? II

Even if content airs nationally on TV, that doesn't mean it'll be easily accessible in the future. Today, let's look at a large variety of different commercials that are all missing to some degree and are going to require the help from people with recordings to unearth.

The McDonald’s commercial was being shared around a couple years back on Facebook, the time when they racist children commercial was being shared around as well

I think the fact that you wouldn't ordinarily think to record an ad is what makes them the most nostalgic.

Hey LSSQ, being from New England, you're likely familiar with the locally famous "Bunk Beds and Beyond" commercial and jingle.

Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network aired this jingle for over a decade in my area, but now the song and commercial are completely lost. I've been searching for someone with a recording that can be uploaded one day.

I do have some tapes my aunt and uncle recorded from around 2004. it's mostly jeopardy, but i really dont have a good way to properly capture vhs footage.

I feel like I remember You Better Don’t. I was recording tapes a lot again as a hobby in the 2000s so I gotta keep searching the tapes. Gotta see if I have any of these.

For the Shocktober characters. I don’t think you realize how common it is for Nick to create a whole set of designs for a universal purpose. It’s about which ones worked best with audiences and what categories they fit better into. Hot Topic was a great outlet networks used to offload additional artwork designs onto shirts. Source: I’ve been inside their Consumer Product Asset Management repository.

Are those Lupin images real or example edits? They look like bad photoshops, but I guess it's plausible Pepsi handed the studio some approved graphics and they had to struggle to apply them to some existing cels.

I vaguely remember seeing the Danny Phantom Shocktober bumper when I was a kid, I’m pretty sure it scared me lol
Also you should’ve included the infamous Pakistan McDonald’s commercials, there’s a second Sonic commercial that’s only been partially found (and recently a Hot Wheels/My Scene commercial was found)

how did the "you better don't" commercial make it past all those employees... there was prob no black higher ups but even then like, how did no one not even second guess it??

I hope they find that Oswald commercial soon.

Hi! OP for the Shocktober bumper search here. I am so excited my little search got a segment in a main LSSQ video!

For a few more little details: I have had the thought that it's weird that Barnyard was apparently part of Shocktober but we've only gotten that ONE mention of Peck and no evidence of any other Barnyard characters among those that have art made for them.

The list of characters with broken images on that one person's site is certainly NOT the complete list. We have confirmation that the skeleton Aang bumper aired on TV and as noted, Aang isn't listed on that site. It's possible they had multiple artists working on art, or that blog post just didn't include everyone.

Those shirts that feature the Avatar art is current merchandise, certainly not anything made for the Shocktober promotion. They seem to be made by a print-to-order company that Hot Topic and Box Lunch gets some of their merchandise through. So, the question is, where did they get that art so long after Shocktober in order to print them?

Honestly, I thought that banned McDonalds ad could’ve been because the ad took place on a plane and may have been insensitive in a post-9/11 kind of way.

Hey LLSQ i remember a sorta Nicktoons SpongeBob QR code thing it aired in October 2017 or 2018, it featured SpongeBob in Halloween costumes, I got vampire SpongeBob.

Really hoping the Pepsi commercial gets found, Lupin advertisements always have really fun unique animation.

There was a commercial in 2003 for the Comedy Central show Tough Crowd, where Brian Posehn made a joke ripping on Nickelback. The ad played constantly, and made Nickelback the Most Hated Band in the History of Music. The clip and episode are on YouTube, but I'm talking about the commercial, which is apparently lost

[joanhill]

Have you ever covered the partially found 1993 Canadian English redub of the anime "Kimba The White Lion"?

Here's a Japanese I remember as a kid when my family lived in Chigasaki, Japan. We'd go to a local Kentucky Fried Chicken and they had a small black tv on the left of the counter and it'd play commercials. During the Star Wars movies of the 1990's we went their and I remembered this Star Wars Kentucky Fried Chicken commercial where the ship is landed and the stormtroopers are standing waiting and the door comes a lady Kentucky Fried Chicken employee appeared with a bucket of chicken and all the stormtroopers started cheering at the end of the commercial. Never been able to find that Japanese commercial online.

one commercial I’ve been trying to look for was an old McDonald’s happy meal commercial where it was a McNugget wearing a helmet diving in slow motion and then getting dipped into ketchup which meant to a commercial advertising a happy meal for hot wheels

[TheDiamondCore]

2:58 I have made my first ever brief appearance in an LSSQ video, 2 seconds but I’ll take it!

Glad you covered the McDonald’s ad, hopefully the search gets more traction now

Its funny, I remember the Shocktober bumpers when I was a kid, it freaked me out because of the designs/music, I was a really sensitive kid back then, the ones I remember were Otis as Frankenstein and these fly headed Cosmo and Wanda ones, idk if people still have recordings of those or not but I remember those shaking me up at the time, probably for the better I never saw the Zombified bumpers as a kid, can't imagine how I'd reacted to those
