    "House of the Wolfman" Mego Commercial Parody

    It seems you have to be on facebook to see it but this "My Way" Toys ad really nails the old Mego aesthetic.

        Thats great. The repeating music and deadpan narrative is perfect.

          What genius is responsible for that work of Shakespearian mastery?

              Not bad at all. The vehicles really nail it.

              Well that and the Shatner scientist.

                Freakin' hilariously megoliscious!!!

                They definietly nailed the Mego aesthethic. I loved how Dracula appeared and disappeared, complete with awkward pauses around the voiceover. Well done.

                      Oh yeah, I can definitely see the Mego ad resemblance. Funny stuff! On behalf of the non-Facebook folks, thanks Brian!

                        That is absolutely AWESOME! The Frankencopter had me rolling, right after the WOLFMOBILE! And the dialog sounds like it came straight out of one of those corny old Mego commercials. I love it!

                          That is dead-on a Mego commercial, just like House of the Wolfman is dead-on a Universal horror flick! Those guys have it pitch perfect!

                          Is that a Bratz Corvette as the Wolfmobile? I've been eyeballing the stack of those at Wal-Mart, waiting for clearance. Great fodder for a custom Batmobile!

                            The Wolfmobile and the Frankencopter?
                            Still a great commercial tho, cool figures too

                              Laugh all you want, if these were made you'd be the one posting "I need a franken copter blade" in the market place.
