Ultraman Statefarm Insurance Ad
 

What is something that would never happen between State Farm and Power Rangers for 500, Alex!

It sounds cool on paper, but Ultraman can only work 3 minutes per day, so I expect many angry costumers.

Why aren't American commercials ever that fun?! :lol

Hey, we've got the Godzilla/Snickers ad, so I'd say we're pretty up there.

I'm guessing you've never seen the Vanilla Ice/Kraft mac & cheese commercial? :lol

That was pretty funny :lol

Now who wants to go make a ranger version?

So, was I the only one watching the commercial trying to figure out who that actually is? :lol

Surprisingly, that's Ultraman Neos of all things, not the original as you'd ordinarily expect in a commercial like this. I'm happily surprised to see this is a Tsuburaya-licensed commercial and not Chaiyo.

I was trying to figure it out too. I was leaning towards Neos too. Seems odd they wouldn't have used Ultraman or at least a latter more recent character like Zero or Ginga.

The likeliest explanation is that Neos is the only Ultra that looks closest to the original that they can use without Chaiyo being involved.

Two things.

1) Why did the Chinese use Ultraman?

2) That was great!

Ultraman is pretty popular over there.

And yeah, it was! :D

Best commercial that I've seen from a foreign country(well Hentai Kamen was funny to) ever.

Oh yeah. I forgot those! :lol

I don't know. Kikaida selling PSP's is still pretty damn hilarious.

I dunno. Ultraman has had plenty of hilarious commercials over the years. These are some of my favorites.

Yup.

I was there for vacation with my family a few y ears back and just about every major toy store had something related to Ultraman there.

Clearly you've never seen Allsate's "Mayhem" ads.

Kikaida selling PS Vita's/PS3's is still fantastic :lol

I see your Kikaida and raise you heroes on tricycles! Thank goodness for strange video game licenses and consumerism. :)

I wholly admit to having a sort of fascination with superheroes in commercials. Doesn't really matter what they're selling.
