Wag Dawgwag I wonder if Pepsi man is made out of aluminum and is filled with Pepsi does that mean if he drinks Pepsi seconds are self cannibalism and you know Pepsi man is kind of a sad story because he can make Pepsi for everyone else but you can’t make Pepsi from self I want is everything do you think you like Subsys some Pepsi like it’s like the thing that keeps him alive I wonder if Pepsi or any other soda brands just have like a cryo-genic freezers a bunch of other characters just like Pepsi man but different brandsLike imagine a Pepsi had other flavors of Pepsi man was even had mountain dew man they should totally do that they should totally do a Mountain Dew man a Pepsi man team up
People have already posted here about the Pepsiman PS1 game, but his first video game appearance was as a secret character in the Japanese version of Fighting Vipers for the Sega Saturn!
The japanese pepsiman comercials might explain why he comes with the crutch, since he appears to get injured a lot in those. Still, i thought the PS1 game was the only pepsiman related thing out there xD
He may have great athletic abilities, but he was kinda a FUCT up superhero but damn it, he did his job well *drinks a can of Coke* ...OH GOD PESPI PRIME I'M SORRY!
I'm going off on a limb here, but I think the reason for the word "fuct" is probably due to someone looking up the Scandinavian dictionary and found the word "fukt". "Fukt" (or "fuktig") is translated as "moist" (or "moisture"). When you pour cold liquid like Pepsi in a glass during warm climate, moisture builds up all over the glass.
I collected these back in the late 90s. I have most of the figures including the FUCT one and even most of Pepsi Man bottle cap figures, especially the Universal Monsters ones.
The auto-translation for the Russian subtitles is AMAZING. For instance: FUCT is almost consistently rendered as PDC or PZDA, presumably because the Russian translator wrote it like the acronym and the translation bot didn't pick up on this. Occasionally, it will be rendered as something else, like PDA, which just reminds me of middle school. "Failed Under Continuous Testing" translates through to "Indicators of Values Reached Emergency". -Complete with that period. "Blue Pepsi Can" is simply "Blue Jar" PepsiMan is referred to with a variety of names, including, but not limited to, Pepsiman, Pepsyman, and Pepsimen. "This is not FACT!!" is rendered as: "This is not a TRAIN!" "Pepsyman, it's me, your sane metal Pepsi brother: Pepsi Prime! In the name of Pepsi Twist, it's time for you to get out of hibernation!" *Note, I am not directly blaming anyone for the translation weirdness. Many factors, such as certain words just not existing in other languages, idioms being different, but transliterated by the machine, and even the translator mishearing things can all play into this type of thing. I'm just a lingual enthusiast and I enjoy weird stuff like this.
It was me who translated this video in Russian. There are my explanations. The main challenge for translation was the word FUCT since during the course of video Phelous used ths word to show how great some aspects of figure are, how bad some aspects are, also the word was used as an acronym and as a tagline about "not a fact". Traditionally F-word is translated into Russian using a basis word -KHUY- since it can mean both something great (oKHUYenny) and something bad (KHUYevy). But this word is terrible for making acronyms in Russian. Thus I have chosen word basis -PZD- which by itself in Russian means C-word but can also form words that mean something good (PiZDaty), something bad (PiZDets), much better for acronym with general meaning of failure and also a stem for a non-swearing word PoeZD (Train). I admit that there are could be better options for translation but I've tried to fit into it as many nuances as possible.
I agree :) I had alot of memories with that game growing up, it was probably my most favourite ps1 game growing up and i still like visiting it every once in a while now and then :)
When will they make a toy based on Beauty's father? It could even have voice recordings of him to play when you move the arm or something. Phelan can supply extra voice clips if necessary.
Great job on this video! Pepsiman is fantastic and it was delightful seeing him with his brother Pepsi Prime! That’s so cool how you wrote the script for that bonus segment and then acted it out so well! Good job incorporating lots of different accessories too!
Been wanting to get one of these dudes for the longest time - I think this line had 3 Pepsiman "Ultra Free Pose" figures, and that's what the "cola version" on the back is referring to. Not only is this the "cola" version, but it also has the FUCT.
Yeah, I know there were different Pepsiman figures, I showed the other ones they had on the back. It just seemed like it meant there were ones for something other than Cola. Maybe now that Crystal Pepsi is returning they can make a Crystal Cola version.
+Phelan “Phelous” Porteous Oh, I get what you mean. I'd buy the shit outta a Crystal Pepsi version. Maybe some kinda rebirth in the S.H. Figuarts line.
Another great video, Phelan, you sexy beefy hunk. Are you part Aboriginal or a European in Canada? Review all bootlegs Ashens has already reviewed! I found you on Newgrounds recently, Phelan-poo.
The funny thing is I was drinking from a Pepsi cup watching this. I was drinking the last of the Juicy Juice orange juice in the house. Not sure why I was craving juice, but I totally did strangely enough. Phelan, you need to do an LP of the Pepsiman videogame on PS1.
I have a feeling that the "cola version" label might apply to the fact that he has the weird cola-transitioning effect on his paint job. Though personally, I'd only reserve such a label for when his body fully converted into Pepsi. ...Though that would probably just mean you'd just be left with a soggy package full of 20-year-old soda. And then Brad would be forced to chug it down out of obligation.
A quick EBay search brought up another variant. So yeah, there's more than just the metallo-cola figure. There's one that's just a plain silver the Pepsi-trademark red striping. Also, the accessories are flat-colored as well.
When will they make a Mountain Dew Man super hero mascot? Oh, maybe because he'll probably just be playing video games and eating Taco Bell instead of snowboarding... lol.
Pepsi really should try to market this guy over in the West now, especially since Super Heroes are pretty much in the public eye and Pepsi can really capitalize on the weirdness and heroic FUCT of Pepsiman!
Maybe they meant "funk" when they wrote fuct? They mention it in relation to his smell. If so, then they don't know how to spell nor that funk isn't a good type of smell.
I have always, to this day, thought this was photoshopped. I cannot believe this thing actually exists exactly as I've seen it online. If anyone should own the real, legitimate FUCT of Pepsiman, made of smelling material, it would be you, Phelous.
I like how on the box they show a pretty much full-view shot of Pepsiman and you can see how the rest of his body wasn't turning into colored-cola. Maybe while getting super cola smelling powers his metal became transparent and he's just made OF Pepsi on the inside. Certainly explains where he gets all of it.
Also "OH MY GOD" is a big joke about Americans in Japan (as in it's a stereotype that Americans yell it all the time) probably also why Wario yells it in the Japanese version of Mario party lol
Him getting seriously injured was a running gag in the commercials and video games. My guess is there was suppose to be a Pepsi Twist Woman Figure later on.
The Pepsiman commercials ran in the US too. I remember them. They were REALLY messed up. I don't recall the commercials being on TV very long. I also remember them giving away figures and such along with the campaign as well as them having Pepsiman collectable bottle caps at one point. I assume if failed because the campaign only lasted a very short time in the US. It may have lasted longer in Japan. I DO remember the commercials in the US with this character running in and making "FIZZ" sounds with his mouth when people would open Pepsi bottles or cans. Every commercial ended with him getting injured.
Hey Phelous, did you like the white Pepsi or blue Pepsi cans better? I remember growing up with the blue cans. Also, do you prefer the capital Pepsi logo with 3D globe or the current all-lowercase logo with minimalist 2D globe? Personally, I wish both could still exist. Also, it looks like Crystal Pepsi may be making yet another limited revival this summer in North America, though in a general public setting this time.
I need this Pepsiman toy. I'm a big fan of that meme. We're can I get this or am I just fuct in finding this. Also where can I get the blue one. That one is most iconic from the video game.
If you've ever seen Vangelus' vids, you could put some floor polish or nail polish remover on those ball joints to give them more mass, making them tighter and less likely to fall off.
Wait.. is that a crutch on the right side of the pack? I guess Pepsi Man had an accident, or maybe he's losing the ability to walk due to untreated advanced diabetes.
I actually remember seeing a Pepsiman commercial when I was younger, and I live in the US. It might have been on one of those "Check out these bizarre ads!" shows from Japan, or could have been the real ad, but I distinctly remember that snowboarding goon. And the creepy sex-doll lip ring thing was to pour Pepsi into, which probably sucked for the actor in the costume.
Daaaamn Phelous WTF dude lmao, poor Pepsi-Man had to die just because he drank a coke lmfao. Dude, & Prime was being so understanding until he found out what he did! Fucking hilarious man, probably one of my favorite endings to these things to include the bootleg zones
haha I thought at 1:50 that sticker said "Don't pee at store". Nope.. it says "Don't peel at store".. I think.. a little hard to read... 🤨🧐🤔 ... oh! I see it says "Don't peel off at store" Doesn't help the thumbs up on the bottom of the snowboard looks a little like a mini-Pepsiman with his arms wrapped around himself 8:12
The reason Pepsiman has the crutch is because one of the main selling points of Pepsiman is slapstick comedy.
Pepsiman's big lips are for when he does the "SHWAAA" action.
At least it's for a perfectly logical reason, then.
Wag Dawgwag I wonder if Pepsi man is made out of aluminum and is filled with Pepsi does that mean if he drinks Pepsi seconds are self cannibalism and you know Pepsi man is kind of a sad story because he can make Pepsi for everyone else but you can’t make Pepsi from self I want is everything do you think you like Subsys some Pepsi like it’s like the thing that keeps him alive I wonder if Pepsi or any other soda brands just have like a cryo-genic freezers a bunch of other characters just like Pepsi man but different brandsLike imagine a Pepsi had other flavors of Pepsi man was even had mountain dew man they should totally do that they should totally do a Mountain Dew man a Pepsi man team up
@@theshockerpit7274 what the FUCT are you on about?
Pepsi Poggers
People have already posted here about the Pepsiman PS1 game, but his first video game appearance was as a secret character in the Japanese version of Fighting Vipers for the Sega Saturn!
Those poses with Pepsi Prime at the end were legitimately awesome. I like this Pepsiman figure.

How is that possible?
Me too. I thought the game was all there was
☝️🤓
Maybe the age recomendation "7 or up" was a subtle promo for 7up?
I'm going off on a limb here, but I think the reason for the word "fuct" is probably due to someone looking up the Scandinavian dictionary and found the word "fukt".
"Fukt" (or "fuktig") is translated as "moist" (or "moisture"). When you pour cold liquid like Pepsi in a glass during warm climate, moisture builds up all over the glass.
BBBHuey The Moisture of Pepsiman
Interesting
What the FUCT is up with Pepsiman being half Pepsi, half Silver Surfer?
This figure is a wee bit weird.
Because the 90's cans were part silver?
I collected these back in the late 90s. I have most of the figures including the FUCT one and even most of Pepsi Man bottle cap figures, especially the Universal Monsters ones.
...and then it turned out Pepsiman was just Deadpool selling out to pay the rent and shooting him in the head did nothing whatsoever
I would pay to see that.
This Pepsi Man action figure is REALLY fuct up.
The auto-translation for the Russian subtitles is AMAZING.
For instance:
FUCT is almost consistently rendered as PDC or PZDA, presumably because the Russian translator wrote it like the acronym and the translation bot didn't pick up on this. Occasionally, it will be rendered as something else, like PDA, which just reminds me of middle school.

Phelous, you need to play the Pepsiman video game!
PEPSIMAN~! best beverage video game ever.
I agree :) I had alot of memories with that game growing up, it was probably my most favourite ps1 game growing up and i still like visiting it every once in a while now and then :)
But which one, the PS1 game or the arcade game?!
***** i've only seen the ps1 in a let's play. :c
Roderic McKay Pepsiman2 is much better
when Silver Surfer sales out.
Well I mean he's technically already a sale out
Baaduummmtisss!😂
Looks more like a rastion warrior robot
This Pepsiman™ figure is pretty fucting awesome! I really want one now! XD
5:03 7UP!? Pepsi Man is a traitor!
Saw this guy at an anime store back in like 1999 and me and my friends would constantly make fun of the "Fuct" thing.
When will they make a toy based on Beauty's father? It could even have voice recordings of him to play when you move the arm or something. Phelan can supply extra voice clips if necessary.
+Cosbydaf Jones And don't leave food out around it because it will assume that it was expected and eat it.
And for Chrissakes, don't creak any doors open around it!
BEEEE-EEEEEEE-EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
With 3D printing technology getting better or somebody could make one out of sculptclay then make a model kit. I could make the 3D model.
That'd be hilarious if that were real.
"Ages 7 & Up" made me chuckle.
Awesome as FUCT! What makes this even better is the wide assortment of poses you put him in.
Great job on this video! Pepsiman is fantastic and it was delightful seeing him with his brother Pepsi Prime! That’s so cool how you wrote the script for that bonus segment and then acted it out so well! Good job incorporating lots of different accessories too!
Dude its not "Oh.. my.. god". You missed the comma.
its "oh. MYGOD!"
missed opportunity for a Lion and the King joke, HO~!
Henry! Oh, my God!!
OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
The Pepsi! MY GOD!
The diamonds!
This video inspired AVGN to make the Pepsi Man video game review of his own. 10/10 for sure.
PepsiMan looks like he's got an ear for a mouth. >_>
Been wanting to get one of these dudes for the longest time - I think this line had 3 Pepsiman "Ultra Free Pose" figures, and that's what the "cola version" on the back is referring to. Not only is this the "cola" version, but it also has the FUCT.

+Phelan “Phelous” Porteous Oh, I get what you mean. I'd buy the shit outta a Crystal Pepsi version. Maybe some kinda rebirth in the S.H. Figuarts line.
Another great video, Phelan, you sexy beefy hunk.
Are you part Aboriginal or a European in Canada?
Review all bootlegs Ashens has already reviewed!
I found you on Newgrounds recently, Phelan-poo.
The funny thing is I was drinking from a Pepsi cup watching this.
I was drinking the last of the Juicy Juice orange juice in the house.
Not sure why I was craving juice, but I totally did strangely enough.
Phelan, you need to do an LP of the Pepsiman videogame on PS1.
I love this video :D
That ending bit with PepsiMan and Pepsi Prime.... You seriously need to start writing screenplays for cartoons or something!
I have a feeling that the "cola version" label might apply to the fact that he has the weird cola-transitioning effect on his paint job. Though personally, I'd only reserve such a label for when his body fully converted into Pepsi.
...Though that would probably just mean you'd just be left with a soggy package full of 20-year-old soda. And then Brad would be forced to chug it down out of obligation.
I’m desperate for a Pepsi man it fits in scale with some of my action figures I want Pepsi man to give Pepsi to a Dalek
Pepsi Man is screaming his ass off on the box art
A quick EBay search brought up another variant. So yeah, there's more than just the metallo-cola figure. There's one that's just a plain silver the Pepsi-trademark red striping. Also, the accessories are flat-colored as well.
This is the core reason I love this show + bootleg zone, only Phelous can make this bizzar product review hilarious .... Awesome 😀👍
When will they make a Mountain Dew Man super hero mascot? Oh, maybe because he'll probably just be playing video games and eating Taco Bell instead of snowboarding... lol.
:56 the last thing he looked up on Amazon was a Men's Greatest American Hero costume.awesome.
OMFG! I need one, and they need to make more! And a Mt Dew Man!
I was never so amused from a toy review before.
What the FUCT indeed, Phelous?
You FUCT up good
Pepsi really should try to market this guy over in the West now, especially since Super Heroes are pretty much in the public eye and Pepsi can really capitalize on the weirdness and heroic FUCT of Pepsiman!
Maybe they meant "funk" when they wrote fuct? They mention it in relation to his smell. If so, then they don't know how to spell nor that funk isn't a good type of smell.
He did break his leg, though, so maybe it actually was referencing the Failed Under Continuous Testing.
I have always, to this day, thought this was photoshopped. I cannot believe this thing actually exists exactly as I've seen it online.
If anyone should own the real, legitimate FUCT of Pepsiman, made of smelling material, it would be you, Phelous.
Had only done the cartoon and creepypasta bids so far. Glad I gave your reviews a try!
And I just loved the skit at the end.
Who needs Batman or Superman when we have Pepsiman! With his inadequate snowboarding ability and broken leg.
Pepsiman was used to market Pepsi is Japan. He was in a lot of commercials and even has a video game made for him.
>
Thus the "As Seen on TV!" :-/
Yeah, The Completionist reviewed it recently and JewWario (RIP) reviewed it years ago.
I like how on the box they show a pretty much full-view shot of Pepsiman and you can see how the rest of his body wasn't turning into colored-cola. Maybe while getting super cola smelling powers his metal became transparent and he's just made OF Pepsi on the inside. Certainly explains where he gets all of it.
Also "OH MY GOD" is a big joke about Americans in Japan (as in it's a stereotype that Americans yell it all the time) probably also why Wario yells it in the Japanese version of Mario party lol
When they said as seen on tv, they were referring to an amazing and strange line if commercials. I think he also had a video game
Holy shit the ending tho. I need to get like super rich so I can quit my job and play with Phelous' action figures. He could probably use an intern.
Fuct could actually be a purposeful use of an alternate transliteration of the katakana for "fact". For joke I guess?
Watching this on Pepsi man's 20th anniversary
Him getting seriously injured was a running gag in the commercials and video games. My guess is there was suppose to be a Pepsi Twist Woman Figure later on.
Ironically, I'm drinking Coke Zero while watching this.
Fun fuct: "Fuct" was originally the name of Priest Fact from the videogame series, Ys.
*[Obligatory drinking joke about taking a shot everytime "fuct" is said]*
*SHUWA SHUWA*
Dude, I didn't even know Pepsi Smell versions of this *EXISTED*. I'm...
Stunned.
The Pepsiman commercials ran in the US too. I remember them. They were REALLY messed up. I don't recall the commercials being on TV very long. I also remember them giving away figures and such along with the campaign as well as them having Pepsiman collectable bottle caps at one point.

Every commercial ended with him getting injured.
No 7UP joke on the "Ages 7 & up" ? That's fuct!
Fuct is actually a clothing brand.
I must say, this is probably the creepiest action figure I've ever seen, especially with its "Pepsi" odor.
Hey Phelous, did you like the white Pepsi or blue Pepsi cans better? I remember growing up with the blue cans. Also, do you prefer the capital Pepsi logo with 3D globe or the current all-lowercase logo with minimalist 2D globe? Personally, I wish both could still exist. Also, it looks like Crystal Pepsi may be making yet another limited revival this summer in North America, though in a general public setting this time.
PEPSIMAAAN!
Man those Japanese Pepsi commercials that feature this guy are really funny.
Is it crazy that I kind of want this figure?
I need this Pepsiman toy. I'm a big fan of that meme. We're can I get this or am I just fuct in finding this. Also where can I get the blue one. That one is most iconic from the video game.
There's also normal and "classic" variants of this guy.
It's gotta be more than a coincidence that Pepsi Prime's gun fit perfectly into Pepsiman's mouth.
Omg, I love how it comes with a cast and crutches LOL that is so FUCTING Awesome I want it!
This was a fucting good episode Phelan!
If you've ever seen Vangelus' vids, you could put some floor polish or nail polish remover on those ball joints to give them more mass, making them tighter and less likely to fall off.
the weird thing is this was done by the team that went to become tamashii nations who are now doing a ture to the 80's cartoon tmnt toys
Oh, my god...
I think maybe somebody in Japan thought it was a pun if they didn't write 'Fact'?
MAYBE?
Wait.. is that a crutch on the right side of the pack? I guess Pepsi Man had an accident, or maybe he's losing the ability to walk due to untreated advanced diabetes.
Pepsiman was my favourite Robot Master from MegaMan Z
Now you have your own chorus of character that say's 'oh my god' lol
You should see the Pepsi woman, I'm not joking they made one commercial with a female version of the character.
That was amazing! I loved the story at the end.
What the Fuct were they thinking when they called it "The Fuct Of Pepsiman"
Pepsiman can be Deadpool in an alternate costume, when Wade needs to make a li'l extra dosh?
awesome video phelous
I actually remember seeing a Pepsiman commercial when I was younger, and I live in the US. It might have been on one of those "Check out these bizarre ads!" shows from Japan, or could have been the real ad, but I distinctly remember that snowboarding goon. And the creepy sex-doll lip ring thing was to pour Pepsi into, which probably sucked for the actor in the costume.
The FUCT of Pepsiman
Watch some of his commercials and you will understand why he comes with some of his accessories.
Wait, they don't make the white/red Pepsi cans anymore? I honestly didn't notice.
PepsiMan: ''PEPSI MAAAN!!''
GI Joe: ''It's Cobra Commander!! take him down! FIRE!!''
PepsiMan: ''p-pepsi?''
Pepsi Commander shall rise again...
can you do a review on 8 crazy nights please?
This is just too good I guess you could say it's cool-Ka cola
Which brings up the question: *WHAT THE FUCT WERE THEY THINKING?*
No, no. The side kick is Diet Cola BOY. :)
The peg broke cause its 20 years old, im contemplating opening mine.
I had no idea there was a toy now i want it
Pepsi man! He makes drinnking pepsi look cool
“very confident of his physical ability" huh? and in his commercials he's constantly crashing into stuff or otherwise getting hurt
Daaaamn Phelous WTF dude lmao, poor Pepsi-Man had to die just because he drank a coke lmfao. Dude, & Prime was being so understanding until he found out what he did! Fucking hilarious man, probably one of my favorite endings to these things to include the bootleg zones
I hope you do more pepsi related toys, though I doubt any other exist
This was so funny one of your best.
I'm really surprised no one pointed out "Pepsimam's" spelling error.
The Fuct of Pepsjman, for ages 7up, that's a fuct!
Man, now I really want some Lucozade...
I was actually drinking Pepsi while watching this video!
R.I.P pepsi man.
He was CO2'd into oblivion for our sins.
haha I thought at 1:50 that sticker said "Don't pee at store". Nope.. it says "Don't peel at store".. I think.. a little hard to read... 🤨🧐🤔 ... oh! I see it says "Don't peel off at store" Doesn't help the thumbs up on the bottom of the snowboard looks a little like a mini-Pepsiman with his arms wrapped around himself 8:12
Not burning hot coals but burning hot cola ! Pepsiman.
*Pepsiman theme plays*
Batbot Changer would kick Pepsiman's ass any day of the week - BATBOT CHANGER !!!!!!
