A post elsewhere about the Hot Wheels 1980 Cadillac Seville reminded me of the Tomica version of the Seville I first saw advertised on TV. It was advertised in a spot by actor Tom Poston, and there was another version, I think earlier, that had the Rolls Royce Phantom VI in place of the Seville. You can find the Rolls Royce version of the commercial here at around 1:03 (or watch the Burger King and Burnin' Key cars commercials too beforehand): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9-Lu4w5bTM

I wonder if Tom Poston got paid in Tomica for this spot? I thought he was an unusual choice as spokesperson, but maybe it was geared more towards adults to buy for kids? While the Cadillac Seville version of the Rolls-Royce spot doesn't seem to be on Youtube, I still have one of my three original Sevilles. LOL, Tom Poston could be any one of us forty years on from the time of this broadcast!!!!!!Originally posted by toyotageek View PostComment
