800 Years of Ninja Wisdom

I (@notnights) began watching RC9GN in December 2012 and it changed my life forever! Probably!

I unfortunately don't believe I saved this promo. These screenshots are all I have found in my files of it so far.

I think this was probably made alone in-house at whatever team worked for Disney tv marketing in Italy because the background does not appear to be made with any assets actually used in RC I don't think? At least not any used in the the Ninja Nomicon (I double checked). The bamboo forest Randy runs through in Dawn of Driscoll is somewhat similar to the background in this as there appears to be one bamboo and the same leaves

but I'm pretty sure it's a default photoshop brush (if i remember correctly anyways, I don't have access to photoshop anymore to double check). The bamboo though kind of looks similar though stylized some what differently, but there are only so many ways you can make bamboo look.

The temple silhouette in the middle ground looks like an effect put on a real photo to me but I can't say for sure if that's what it is.

There's a statue in the foreground is also not something we ever see in the show.

In November of 2013, Coke-Zero had a contest. Where you designed your own sweater, and if it was out of the top 100 voted designs it would be produced.

Cunningham staff had made their own little ninja-sweater design and titled it “Randy”. They asked fans to vote for it so that it could be made.

The staff even made some cute promotions for it.

The sweater was in the 100s when it was first made, but thanks to fans’ support we were in the 40s-50s early on, but something happened and soon the votes started to lessen as it went into the 60s, then the last I saw it was at 95 before it hit the 100s.

Pretty soon it was at 106 on the top-voted list. The contest ended without the Randy sweater even re-entering into the two-digits. (Arocketumblr’s [deleted user] art after our loss)

It’s still up on that site too<original link does not work anymore>. In memory I guess. Maybe next year we’ll get it if they have the contest again.
