Want to start your day with a zing and a jolt to your spinal column which will set you up for the rest of the day?

Look no further, check out some of these amazing Japanese ads from the 1980s.

Opening up further to Western influences, Japanese ads in the 1980s often featured Hollywood celebrities making a quick buck in the land of the Rising Sun. Looks like Arnie paid for over half his income by appearing in Jap ads in the 80s.
