Wacky, Wild TV Ads

Toonix Marinela - Head Swapping

So, this ad shows two things:

That the product comes with toys— you can swap the heads between them, and
The boy and girls with swapped heads, but both distorted and big like the toys.

YMMV, though— the TF is off-screen, and.. I dunno if I’m sold on the acting. :) Any thoughts yourself?

KFC “Eliminatorias”

In this series of ads for KFC.. not sure how?.. but some weird things happen to a girl as her house gets attacked by a disaster.

In one of them, a tornado strikes, an she can’t blow it away—as it takes her out the door. (Favorite!)

In the one above, a teensy UFO comes in. The girl is amused by its teensy size, until it shrinks her head, then shrinks her body to match, and sucks her up into a tractor hose.

In one crushing fans might like, Godzilla shows up, and an umbrella is not enough to save her. (Brief, no remnants, too.)

These were done by Monster, GC. I wonder what else they have?

Kraft - Envidia - Angels

More angels from Kraft— I’m used to seeing them for cream cheese, though. And philadelphia. Kraft’s cheese?

Hm.. Enjoy!

Marinela - Chocotorro & Talmata - Dalmation & Bird TF

Not too strong, as they’re done kinda like paper flipping. But the CG makes the dude get a dog nose, spots, and floppy ears, while the girl gets wings, tail-feathers when walking away, and a little headfeather, I think. <3

I wonder if there’s more “Chocotorro” stuff? >u>

YMMV on the TF, but I like it!

Safcol - Franklin - Cat Coworker

So, Safcol does tuna. And there’s a pretty well-done CG cat-face dude in this ad. Not too catty, of course—he doesn’t even act upon the tuna the dude’s eating, besides act too “civilized” to be a cat. Who is he, Bojack Horseman?

Vigorsol - Get Fresh, Stay Fresh - Magic Fridge TF

Yes, Magical Fridge TF.

This dude, after having the gum, stands up and begins turning blue.. Before a fridge pops around him! At the beach.

Using his fridge powers, he pops ice into some girls’ classes, gives a kid a giant popsicle, and begins changing outfits with some freezer breeze.

Besides making an impression at volleyball, he creates a dance floor and changes a few people’s outfits. He poofs a change to a girl’s outfit, and she essentially is a love interest— making out with him in the fridge and getting freezerburn/frozen.

The dude reverts, and he chews another piece of gum. Hey! That’s how we run out so fast.

Aero - “Bubble Hoppers” - Bouncing while Eating

So, the metaphor in this ad is that while you are eating Aero candy bars, you are also joyfully bounding through life’s moments— off a bus, or even in the middle of a college class.

Kinda is cool to see the students bouncing in place, despite a class full of statues facing the professor.

One lady throws out an Aero wrapper, and after cutting back to her, she’s not on a hopper, and is walking.

YMMV, but I like hoppers—maybe others for the product do it more justice, but..

Cheetos Crunchy Chedder Jalapeno - Electric Power

This ad for Cheetos features four live-action dudes, one who is CGed to look like Chester Cheetah. Nice. Some day, some day we’ll have a Chester Cheetah TF.

In this ad, Cheetos is so spicy that it electrifies them when they eat the product. They use this to power an entire feature themepark.

In fact, the rollercoaster runs out of juice until Chester has another bite on the ride. Another from Mile Studios.

Sun Bites - Rolling Wave of Change

I can’t recognize the lettering on the package—looks like Farsi?

So, in this in ad for SunBites, two friends are seated on a patio. One friend tries the product, only to have her seat rock back and forth on a wave— as it turns out the product made a wave beneath her.

The wave sets off to leave a pattern of grass, green patterns, and other effects—like when a painter’s roller hits a building, the entire facade gets a green mural.

Kinda cool.

Sunbites - Cardboard Jane - Explosive Box Head

Another nice one by RGT, thank you for the submission! :D <3

So, here’s the scoop:

This Jane goes through her whole day, with a box for a head and a face drawn in Sharpie on the side. As you can guess, she’s lackluster in energy, doesn’t stand out…

At the end, a friend offers her one chip from a Sunbites bag.. and.. BAM! Her cardboard head erupts in a giant confetti explosion, leaving her normal human head behind. That friend has got a front-row seat to the explosion. :)
