8C If that thing showed up in my livingroom I would make it dead.

If that thing showed up in my living room I would hire you to make it dead.

No wonder all the humans in the commercials are scared shitless

Kill it with fire. Then bury the ashes and cover it with cement.

I'll get the flamethrower.
You get the shovel.

Already got one. Now we just need a cement mixer.

*backs up* Beep...beep.....beep.....beep.....


Here ya go!

Alright then. Let's do this.

It's South African, so ideally with a burning tyre around the neck.

The only way that could have been any more batty is if that meerkat had been a bat

LUCKILY this ad campaign/mascot has been laid to rest for the most part. That ad in particular used to freak me the hell out because he was RIPPING OFF HIS SKIN (WTF?!). D:

What the ever loving hell did I just watch? o.0

Whatever it was, I want that time spent watching it back.

and that is exactly what you would look like if you took steroids! Your balls shrink, and your head grows!

Should be nuked from orbit.

this is an even better ad:

I think my furr-sona might be an african warlord.

I seriously want to replace my ringtone with a marching band. That is classy as hell.

This is nightmare fuel.

I actually like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&a.....ture=endscreen

That one's not horrible. It's like they hired a high school student to draw the mascot, and this was after they could afford to hire a real artist... not a good one, just a real one, lol.

Right, exactly :) The first stripper one seriously made me cringe.

I've spent so much time on the Internet. Too much. I'm pretty sure all of us have seen about the weirdest shit that can be thrown at us. I'm overall desensitized, though things still do faze me, but something like this shouldn't.

But this is still one of the most hands-down creepiest things I have ever seen.

The design is what makes it so bad. The Orangina commercials, as odd as they were, weren't as...eugh. I never cared for those commercials visually, but they were definitely hilarious and all, if only for the bizarre and ballsy factor. And at least...I guess to some people they could be aesthetically pleasing (I just don't like the look of anthros that are just human bodies with completely normal animal heads...I don't mean make them cartoony, I mean add some sort of...I dunno, it just looks awkward to me). What could be likable about that? I mean, I'm sure they didn't mean for it to be attractive, but SURELY they couldn't have meant to make it so appalling. I'm sure they had to have wanted to get some sort of laughs, and I guess they thought making the character look ridiculous would help, but no, no. Just no.

I'm horrible at character designs. All of mine look the same. I have no real style, and I have little to no flexibility. I could still do better than this.

The Orangina ones at least had some sense of proportion. This thing is a walking abortion.

For me the oragina commercial looses a lot of appeal because for some reason I find high heels as a very strong turn off, otherwise it probably be a lot more appealing to me.
anyways... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksowpCTfEgs this is how it's done right. These lizards are more appealing then that meerkat.

Oh man I forgot all about that lizard commercial, that was awesome.

I loved those lizards. They were just the right combination of cartoony and realistic.

...also, avatar related. I actually made my avatar for things like this, since I knew I'd run into pretty weirdass things on FA.

That was a wise decision.

If i saw that in my living room i would not react at all. its obviously craving attention and im just not going to give it to him.

I think someone needs to fire their designer, animators, and writers. This is like the anti christ compared to the big oragina commerical in fact I think I'll watch that to remove the tainted sick feeling I get from seeing this shit. And I did, and it worked than god.
I don't think I could of seen a worse design. This is something you would see come from Everythingisterrible.

That's actually quite old... ^^ But yes, that's South African advertising for you. We also produced Jock of the Bushveld (worst animation film in the history of time).

Today's Vodacom advertising features a fat military guy with a huge pedo-grinn chilling on the beach in the middle of the night and forcing a super-skinny nerd guy to go serfing. Wtf.

Yep, my S. African fiancee brought this thing up because he's slightly horrified by bizarre American commercials, and I jokingly said something like "Well, I suppose African commercials are works of art in comparison?".

Ah. xD

kinda reminds me of a gremlin, minus the giant ears.

im jealous of the random flash dancers.

And people said that the large heads in Legend of Zelda: Windwaker were freaky...

Looks like what would happen if Achmed the Dead Terrorist had a gay baby with Timon from the Lion King...

rofl

First, Vodacom..sounds like a viacom that's sold at...like a dollarstore..


second, Holy fucking shit, whoever thought a meerkat should do that needs serious fucking help...
...I know who i must show these to...He'll hate me...But it'll be worth it.

WELP

LOOKS LIKE I CHANGED MY AVATAR JUST IN TIME

You have to love how they completely misinterpreted all of the "traditional" cute animal markers and regurgitated them into something so...horrific.

It's so completely awful I kind of suspect the artist was trolling the ad execs.
