Unfortunately, they are in a terrible movie

A movie that would be bad even if Peter Sellers wasn't in yellowface.

DID YOU KNOW
(because I didn't)
that the first two Herbies are from the same writer / director pairing as

Son Of Flubber, 1963. Which was Disney's first sequel ever, and apparently also inaugurated a previously unheralded FLUBBER CINEMATIC UNIVERSE?

(same regular writer & director there too)
What the heck, have two more examples from the similarly expansive Son Of Flubber Poster Universe

The pit crew was changed for the next herbie movie, but the policy of making multiple posters for the same flick wasn't.

and another version of the first, in paste-up - the flag dude falling over the railing looks to be a different version here, even if the other painted elements are just rearranged?

Seventeen years between Herbie Goes Bananas (1980) and the Peyton Reed / Bruce Campbell remakequel of The Love Bug. Eight years between that one and Herbie: Hot, Ready & Legal. Next year will be another seventeen years, and filming through a car windscreen is covid-safe: Disney, please bring people back to cinemas in 2022 with your most venerable cinematic franchise.

when I was a kid and we had only a few tv channels one of them seemed to show Munster, Go Home and the previously mentioned Thing With Two Heads on Saturday afternoons with disturbing regularity.

Looking at the imdb trivia for Munster, Go Home, and learned that it's box office failure caused Paramount to cancel a planned Get Smart feature film, the script of which was retooled into a three-part episode.
