A great video using Action Men for Money Supermarket:

Aside from smiling and laughing throughout, I kept spotting bits of kit I used to have or wanted. Enjoy!

YouTube says the video is not available in my country. 

Sorry bought that . It's a UK advert which might be the issue.

  at last a replacement for the Village People!

GOOD GRIEF !!!

How long did that take someone to do?

(Bill, you haven't missed much....honestly.)

Cheers - Phil

Don't know what I'm doing here (so what's new) but might either of these work?

Thanks Steve, Impossible not to smile (a lot).

My Brother-in-Law told me about the advert last week, but I have not been able to catch it, cheers.

Going back up now to watch it again!

I caught the end of this on the TV the other night, and was intrigued, not least due to strong nostalgia

But now having seen the whole thing, its just quite irritating, as are all the ads for comparison sites. Their style really seems to be as irritating as possible to make what they are doing stick - which I suspect works.

Not available in my country 

Based on Leman's comment about the Village People I think this is it

Uh Queerty is a -uh- alternative life style site BTW

The vid has a YouTube stamp on it so who knows.

Obviously CGI  - there is no way you get that many Action Mans (?) to stand up simultaneously!

The one with the moustache may well be leading an alternative lifestyle (says the man with the shaven head and tattoo  :-).

Bill, yep, that's the one, you just made me watch it twice more

And then there's also the Chippendales' clothes tip away 

Stupid. Just stupid.

Are these the same idiots who did the recent He-Man/Skeletor dancing advert?

So, take a 'beloved' children's toy and make them dance in a camp fashion to sell a price comparison website? I expect it's being post-ironic or something.

And, because it's camp, anyone who doesn't like it can instantly be labelled 'HOMOPHOBE!!!!'.

Again, stupid, just stupid.
