Just saw a rather humourous toy commercial on tv
and I thought I'd share.
It was for "Toyland" in Zellers. Zellers is a
Canadian Dept. store, along the lines of Kmart/Walmart. Toyland is their toy
department.
The commercial begins showing the end of a typical
aisle in the department. The right side, showing pink, has girls' toys,
the blue left side, boys. A sales clerk is putting a price sticker on the
shelf below the items on the pink side. Camera goes in, and we see that it's a
shelf of "My Scene" Barbies. The one in the centre starts moving, in her
package, and speaks:
Barbie: What's it say?
Shot goes to the opposite side...a display of TMNT
figures! You can easily make out Don, Mike & Raph. Mike's in the
middle and starts moving.
Mike: Uh...19.96 Barbie: I did NOT just hear you say
19.96.
Note: Mike's got a pretty good Mike imitator
voice...Barbie has a sorta Valley Girl type voice. Shot moves to a Leap Pad
book/toy. (the shot moves to whoever is talking, btw)
Leap Pad: The reptile did quote the appropriate
price.
Barbie: I am worth way more than that. I'm, like,
one of the hottest toys, like, ever! (she's sounding miffed now)
Mike: Chill out. This is Zellers. They always have
low prices.
Diva Starz doll: Mmm hmmm.
Barbie: Do you not know who I am?? I'm amazing (I
think this is what she says) Barbie and I dress to thrill! (not 100% certain
about this either)
Mike: Whatever, Harvey.
Barbie: It's BARBIE!
-----------------------
I gotta admit, I LOL'd at this commercial.
Guess Barbie's not as hot as she'd like to think <G>.
Raph "> (after this week, a few chuckles are
appreciated)
