I am in this commercial. I am second on the right is the camera sees us. I have been looking for this for years. There are a few more commercials I was in. This brings back so many memories.

How cool is it that you get to see yourself from that era with one of the greatest toys ever made. I had this toy,I can still hear the revving sound in my head as you turned the handle. I must have been like 7 or 8. How much were you paid for the commercial? You do have this genuine grin in the commercial,must have been unreal for you back then.

Ideal was the best doll and toy company. Their dolls always did something, had a special thing that none of the other dolls on the market had. I owned a few Ideal dolls and miss those years.

Well done! ☺

A fantastic toy as a kid, that did exactly what was shown. But you did have to be light handed with the crank or the plastic cog teeth would skip, I wasn't. 😄

Any chance you'd share this video without the watermark with me for a low budget documentary film? thx
