Yes he’s back! For the first time since the A-Team left our screens in 1987, legendary aviophobic ‘Mr T’ is returning to UK screens in a brand new TV advertising campaign for SNICKERS.
In true Mr T style, viewers will see him burst onto screens in a brown tank complete with his trademark Mohican hairstyle and gold chains. He then charges onto a football field, crushing cars and concrete posts before ridiculing an injured football player and urging him to “Get Some Nuts”.
Other classic lines in the advertisements include:
“Quit yo jibba jabba”
and…
“If I ever catch you actin’ like a crazy fool again,
you’re going to meet my friend pain”
A collection of downloadable Mr T sound bites will be available soon.The multi-million pound advertising campaign is currently running in the UK and targets 16-44 year old men.
SNICKERS spokesperson Kay Nicholls says: “We’re honoured to be bringing a star as big as Mr T back to UK screens. Mr T’s manly attitude is spot on for SNICKERS, which is a no nonsense chocolate bar for today’s man.”
Hi Coverist guess what, the YouTube URL you sent is for the same ad that the commercial representatives for Snickers (Jackie Cooper Public Relations) sent me!
But I didn’t include the MPEG video clip in the post since the file size was humngous – something like 7.5MB!
But this YouTube video seems to download pretty fast, and I think I should go ahead and embed it in the post!
