The Great Crunchie Train Robbery is one of New Zealand's most iconic and longest running ads. Made in 1975, the ad remained on television and in cinemas for more than 20 years.
Set in the WildWest, the ad starts with a Frank and Jesse James style pair of {{outlaw}}s attempting to steal a chest full of Crunchie bars from a train, which then turns into a free for all as various other players try to either stop them or steal the Crunchies bars for themselves. It then turns into an AnachronismStew as Arab bandits, azi soldiers and various other outsiders get involved.
The ad gained some fame outside of NZ when Kenny Everett featured it in a "Video Vault" segment on an episode of ''Series/TheKennyEverettVideoShow''.
