    Progressive commercial using Re-Mego bodies or something close to it

    I saw this last night and it got me curious. The hands and heads are customized but do you think they're using existing Re-Mego bodies from one of the companies currently making them? Looks like a nice tip of the hat to Robot Chicken.

      This is fun, thank you for posting.

      I don't think that's just a tip of the hat, I think that's a Stoopid Buddy production for Progressive Insurance. It's done exactly the same way they do Robot Chicken, with the movements, cut out mouths, puppets and overall look. Good for them! I love Stop Motion stuff anyway.

          Yup that has to be the Robot Chicken crew. That mime might be a Peter Parker head.

            From the ingenious production team behind Adult Swim’s iconic Robot Chicken series, Progressive Insurance re-introduces Flo and their well-known cast of characters like never before in two new 30-second animated commercials that launch today: “Air Flo” & “Hustlin’ Flo.”
