    Retro-Action Superheroes Commercial

    I put together a little homage to the old vintage Mego commercials. My good friend Tom helped me out by putting the old film look to it.

        Yeah, that would have been a riot. Good job, Jason.

          Perhaps when wave 3 comes out I may create a more elaborate commercial, possibly using children playing with the figures. This one was just thrown together rather quickly, in part based loosely on one of the commercials that did not feature any kids.

              Yeah nice job man. I agree with the "kid running around in the back yard" idea. And then at the end freeze the frame and slap a big fat Mattel logo dead center! In a cheesy voice say, "From.... Mattel!"

                      I was wondering when someone was going to do one of these. Well done Jason. That was fun to watch.

                        Wow! Really nice. If I were on the fence about these, this commercial should do the trick. SOLD!!

                            This was cute, thanx for doing. Paul and I have an idea for one if we ever get to shooting it; we think it's funny but it might also **** some people off, so we haven't had the balls to do it yet :-)

                              I'm going to take a wild guess... You show old footage of 1970's kids playing with Megos in their back yard. Then "fast forward" to current day, showing grown men running around in a back yard going zoom zoom with some DC Retro-Action figures, looking like *****. Lol
