===Mr. T=== In 2006, [[Mr. T]] starred in a Snickers advertisement in the UK where he rides up in an army tank and shouts abuse at a football player who appears to be faking an injury, threatening to introduce him to his friend Pain. Another advertisement featured Mr. T launching bars at a swimmer who appeared to refuse to get in a swimming pool because of the cold temperature of the water. In 2008, a European Snickers commercial in which Mr. T uses a [[Jeep]]-mounted [[Minigun]] to fire Snickers bars at a speedwalker for being a "disgrace to the man race" was pulled after complaints from a US pressure group that the advertisement was homophobic.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/media/2008/aug/04/advertising |title=Don't give us none of that jibba jabba |newspaper=The Guardian |date=August 4, 2008 |access-date=June 16, 2009 | location=London | first=Mark | last=Sweney}}</ref> These advertisements usually ended with Mr. T saying "Snickers: Get Some Nuts!"
