Ok, I know I talked about lost Filipino commercials (RA Homevision & Encarnacion Bechaves) but there are alot more iconic commercials here in the Philippines. I want to bring attention to these as some of them are iconic, and even they are, sadly lost to time. I present to you, the Sunny Orange & Seiko Wallet commercials.
This commercials are more iconic than the two commercials I covered, these two even got featured in a show called Ang Pinaka here in their episode "Classic Commercial Jingles" and these commercials remains iconic/popular still today. Just ask an elder here about these commercials and they will remember it easily. However, even a footage of them hasn't yet resurfaced unfortunately. Now to the commercials:
First of all, Sunny Orange. It is a concentrated juice drink that is popular to the Filipinos, especially kids who grow up from the 70s to the 90s. However, even info about who produced it is obscure, rumors being a Chinese is behind it. It was kinda and slowly phased out in the 90s according to my research due to other competitors such as Eight-O-Clock and Tang. Speaking about the commercial, the jingle of it also remains popular and iconic to Filipinos, and I know why since its so catchy! Here is a link of an audio recreation of the said jingle.

There isn't really description on what's the content of the commercial itself since people only reminisces about the jingle, but according to the recreation on Ang Pinaka, shows a montage of Sunny Orange bottles with different flavors and with the drink being poured to a spoon and being mixed on a glass. It is described as more low-budget and one person said he saw the ad from the mid to late 70s. I speculate it might even been aired in the early 80s.
When Sunny Orange got revived on 2020, it even acknowledged the popular jingle, but I'm not really sure if they still have the commercial on their archives, if they have archives. There are alot of threads in PinoyExchange mentioning this commercial, similar to other lost commercials too. There are other versions of the commercial, one persion mentioning a Chinese version of the jingle and a commercial starring Jimmy Santos & Ruby Rodriguez in the early 90s, known showbiz personalities here in the Philippines
Second of all, Seiko Wallet. A known wallet brand here in the Philippines, known for its slogan "Ang Wallet Na Masuwerte" or in English, "The Lucky Wallet". It's producer, Seiko, is also known in the 80s for producing bold films LOL but lets not talk about that.
To the commercial, the description is more known. I talked to an eyewitness and she said its just a montage of wallets, really low-budget with no voiceover or endtags apart from the jingle. The commercial ended with a voice saying, "Seiko Wallet, Ang Wallet na Masuwerte." The jingle, similar to Sunny Orange, remains iconic to the Filipinos, and this is also catchy I recommend you to listen to it even if you don't understand it:

However, not like Sunny Orange, there are alot of infos about this commercial. First of all, eyewitnesses said it was aired in IBC-13 during Magic Kamison and Pinoy Thriller in the late 80s to the early 90s, and The Top Ten Best Movie Trailers of the Week along with KFC & Durastar ads from 1994-1995. The commercial was also featured in Ang Pinaka, along with Sunny Orange but the uploader cut out the recreation, but atleast we know what it looked like as it was described by eyewitnesses. Like Sunny Orange, mentions and small search efforts were frequent since the 2000s, especially in the threads of PinoyExchange forums.
That's all for now. I hope you guys can be interested in these, as alot of Filipinos really like to see these two commercials.
