I really like this commercial! A great way to show how Playmobil appeals to all ages! :)9

this ad is awesome!! I am so jealous of the babysitter  :lol: I'd sure enjoy babysitting if this was really it! It carries a clever message thought and must be really effective!!!

Love this ad, Tim, hadn't seen it before.  I think Playmobil would do themselves a great service by advertising more in other countries.  I never see comercials here for Playmobil.  Maybe I am just not watching the right shows.   :lol:

Great find, Tim! It looks like it's dubbed in German, though  :eh?:. Hopefully that means that it will also come out in the U.S. with an English version.

That would sure be nice. I finally spent a morning watching cartoons while I did housework, just so I would see the playmo ads, and I must say, they were rather pathetic. Really, really lacking. They would do well to have more eye-catching commercials in the US. This one is waaaay to long, though, and would have to be extremely condensed.

Do you mean the 30 second ones are pathetic? I agree, it's hard to tell what they're even advertising. I imagined that this was supposed to be as entertaining as the normal shows. That way, people would keep watching as if it wasn't a commercial. I think that it's pretty entertaining as a regular feature  :).

Yeah, the little short ones are pathetic. Nothing to really reach out and grab you about how wonderful a toy it is, no catchy tune or slogan to make the name stick in your head, and it moves by so fast you can't even get a good look at what they are advertizing.

yes, geobra is finally getting smarter.  :)
instead of pleasing just the kids they finally realized they had to conquer their parents (actually the ones who have the money).  ;)
maybe they will also realize that -lots-of-parts-slow-to-build instead of ready-made is the only way to go.
