Top notch !

if this war-strategy is good, the ad is great.

Love the campaign! Good Art Direction. Keep up!

beautiful, i like it alot. maybe a bit similar look with the frog and watermelon for (i think tamiya?) ... but still beautiful!

I really dig this, but the subheadline is not really needed for. The war puns get quite out of hand, I think

Right, remove the subheadline. It flatters the message. Otherwise very cool ad.

Excellent art direction and idea.

Speaking as an adman, this doesn't quite work for me. Great art direction, but it's still the overused concept of "one thing forming another thing".

Should be fine with the public, I guess.

Ridiculous illustration

how about "we've slashed prices" and the products make up a variety of serial killers.

I was JUST thinking about that. "...slashed prices in this cut-throat market"? ; )

Can the body copy be a little more tacky, please? I mean, it's like "get it? get it? GET IT???" We GOT IT, all right?! Sheeesh!

que chevre la direccion de arte.

Cheap building materials, eh?

No thanks. I want quality building materials.

And before anyone replies saying "they were refering to price", allow me to connect the dots for you with a sharpie:

The tagline is HORRIBLE.
