Original Commercial Video of the Tamiya Wild Willy

Original Commercial Video of the Tamiya Wild Willy

[@rc-dawg245]

The narration is just blabber, but everytime a Wild Willy is pulling a wheelie it just puts a smile on my face...coolest RC car ever!

[@jacksemporiumofstuff]

Everybody is hating on the narrator, but that was generally the narration style from the 40s up until around the 80s I would say. It's just the way they did it back then.

[@Mr_Bunk]

No. I have seen 50’s B-movies with narration delivered a thousand times more enthusiastically than this. This isn’t ‘the way it was’, it’s crap even for the time.

[@steven-vn9ui]

@@Mr_Bunk Agree, this guy is normally very good at the narration, he seemed distracted during the Wild Willy ad.

[@fcesc7323]

THE BEST CAR IN RC FOR EVER !!!!!!

[@nomusicrc]

Imagine if this commercial was ever on TV it’s over 2 1/2 minutes long The narrator doesn’t sound like he’s reading from a script he pauses as if he doesn’t understand what he is saying

[@P8FPV]

I'm not..... the.....only.......... one 😂

[@astralpx]

Power.....from....the....540....MOTOR

[@c.l.7525]

This commercial guy sounds so enthused.

[@Tupikainen]

It was my childhood dream what I never got it! Maybe this year when I had 50 years birthday

[@silviamills5218]

Ah yes, the lunchbox but fancier.

[@brandons9138]

I thought that the Lunchbox was based off the Blackfoot. Or was the Blackfoot based on the Willy as well?

[@ArmanRC]

Tamiya is always impressive all the time

[@P8FPV]

Did this guy have a script or was he just saying what came into his head while watching 😂

[@johnmoyle4195]

He might be reading a script written in Japanese and translating on the fly.

[@ggilesy]

I think he used the script to roll a joint then shared it with the music production crew and imagined himself driving the wild willy while narrating.

[@Bandito071]

He got off to a good start and then seemed to get a bit lost.

[@jongonegone1262]

competition was maruia toyota fj7 landcruiser similar to bigbear chassis, pulled wheelies also.

[@bradkalman2353]

They need to bring those back they would sell like hotcakes even the longer wheelbase of the old style.

[@mikewilson164]

Where is the annoncer these days??

[@andreasu.3546]

They should have hired Don LaFontaine for the narration.

[@lowercentenary]

The narration and music belonged to an older gentler time...younger people will neither appreciate it nor understand it sadly...but hey it is what it is! What I really want to know is how do they make them pop wheelies seemingly so easily or is this in slow mo?

[@jamesbreedlove622]

It’s where it all started

[@BRCrawlers]

So cool man 👆👍

[@Dartheomus]

Holy shit, this is gold. That was the worst narration I've ever heard!

[@Leo19730812]

01：05　Yesterday Once More！

[@astralpx]

But is it versatile???

[@saltymahero9898]

Ancient Alien Researchers say : YES !

[@saltymahero9898]

Is that a young Joe Biden doing the voice over ?

[@Bormac073]

LIKED & SUBSCRIBED

[@wardenerbros]

Pretty much every single thing the narrator says is a blatant lie. Still, this is the greatest RC model ever produced.

[@lunakey1975]

yessssss ! :)

[@MrYoh-jk3qj]

Is that the TAMIYA factory in CEBU PHILIPPINES?

[@howardalteisen2281]

Kantot

[@IntegraDIY]

I love Tamiya. 23 years of pure lose with this company and their cars. But I have to admit, this is cheesy 😅

[@amonray234]

music track is too loud

[@Chris_Love]

Hurry! We need to go back to the eighties and tell them that their sound in the commercial is shit!

[@Mr_Bunk]

@@Chris_Love I’d do it just to tell them to sack the narrator and find someone who sounds like they give a shit.
