Check out a compilation of the strangest and most awesome Robocop ads ever made.
NewsRobocop! Who is he? What is he? Where does he come from? By know you know the answers to all of these questions, but what you may not have realized is that the so-called "future of law enforcement" is one hell of a commercial pitchman --especially overseas. You see ever since the first Robocopfilm was released in 1987, the character has been used in a variety of commercials -- including spots for fried chicken, ramen noodles, bug spray, televisions, and so much more.
But don't take our word for it, see for yourself in this compilation video of Robocop commercials, PSAs and other insanity that Den of Geek made in advance of Robocop screening that we're holding on February 27th at Videology in Brooklyn:
It's hard to pick a favorite commercial here, in fact it is downright Sophie's Choicedifficult. But if we had to choose we'd say our favorites are the Japanese chicken commercial (which for reasons to awesome and strange to comprehend features music from Back to the Future Part III) and an old Meineke ad in which a blatant Robocop rip-off refuses to pay a lot for his muffler. We absolutely love this kind of sci-fi ephemera, and if you do as well, let us know which of these spots is your favorite in the comments!
