Scans

Crash 1
Submitted by Lars E. Mou. «Take a long break from Crash Bandicoot when you feel like you're gonna crush everything around you.» (translated from Danish)

Crash 2
First scan submitted by Lars E. Mou: «If you act like Crash Bandicoot, you risk going to the school psychologist.» (translated from Danish)
Second scan submitted by Dingodile555. I guess they were trying to appeal to a whole new crowd with that one...

Crash Bash
Crash is the master of camouflage.

The Wrath of Cortex (last two scans submitted by Keiji Dragon)
The first ad is kind of cool, or it would be if it weren't for the excessive replacement of words by the number 2. Why 2 anyway? Isn't The Wrath of Cortex, like, the fourth platformer in the series?
The third and fourth scans were submitted by Keiji Dragon. They're just stupid enough to be funny.
The fifth and sixth scans were submitted by Dingodile555. Crash seems to have a history with body-building.

XS
An obvious parody of detergent advertisements.

The Wrath of Cortex / XS
Now this one's just plain wrong. Not to mention it's like they wanted Crash to seem like a console... friend, for lack of more appropriate terms. You have to wonder what they were on when they came up with this.

N-Tranced
That must have been a very limited edition.

Twinsanity
There were a lot of TV ads for Twinsanity promoted by two of the guys from MTV's Jackass. They usually involved the two of them trying to imitate Crash and Cortex's cartoony antics, but in the end, it wasn't all that funny. I also think the spanking was advertised a little too much everywhere.

Crash of the Titans
Not much to say about these. The first scan is a two-page advertisement, with art traced off of character models so that it looks like a painting. The second scan is just the cover art for the game.

Mind Over Mutant
The image in this scan is recycled from the back of the boxart.

Skateboarding Trick Contest
Crash gets both festive and sportive in this Italian event held at Milano, on the 11th of October 2008. Contestants brought their skateboards and participated in freestyle trick runs, both to show off their moves and also to have a chance at winning a brand new Xbox 360, a copy of Mind Over Mutant and a Crash t-shirt.
