He-Man Androgel Ad?

Hey, how about having He-Man (the cartoon hero character) be a spokesman for Androgel? After all, the He-Man cartoon was very popular in the mid 1980s, and he must have been about 25 years-old in the cartoon, right? Well, that would make him 55 years-old right about now, so he’s the perfect age to shill for Androgel, right? Here’s how this might work:

He-Man is trying to fight Skeletor, but he gets his ass kicked and runs away, with Skeletor shouting: “Run home and cry to your mommy! Ha ha ha!” (Skeletor is a skeleton, so he is not subject to normal human aging, I shouldn’t think.) So He-Man comes back to Castle Grayskull, and She-Ra wants to get frisky, but He-Man isn’t as virile as he used to be, so he starts feeling insecure and standoffish, causing She-Ra to exclaim: “Not in the mood again? What’s wrong with you these days?” So then the announcer chimes in: “Not as much of a He-Man as you used to be? Do you have less energy than you used to? Can’t defeat your arch-nemesis anymore? Not feeling that same desire in the bedroom? Androgel testosterone treatment can help!”

So then He-Man uses Androgel, and we are treated to an “after” scene, showing He-Man making out with She-Ra while simultaneously beating up Skeletor with one of this arms while not even bothering to look up at Skeletor, proving what a great boost to super-heroism Androgel provides to the aging superhero!

This is He-Man, for those of you who are unfamiliar with him and his heroic deeds and stuff:



(BTW: I just found out that She-Ra is supposedly He-Man’s sister, so sorry about the unintended implied incest angle. But hey: maybe there isn’t the same taboo associated with incest in Eternia as we have here on Earth. And who are we to judge them anyway? After all, they’re the Masters of the Universe, whereas we’re merely occupants thereof.)
