too silly for Merc.. tried to dress it up with identifying the target, but not doing it for me. but at the same time you could use this for a non luxury brand...and I have to admit...I laughed...art direction is good, doesn't fit the brand..nice work though

I think it's appropriate for Mercedes. These 3 ads look classic, chic and gorgeous. Totally in line with their marketing objectives. The chosen palette is subtle and the background is clean.
This ad is far from being avant-gardiste and it's important to understood that this campaign concerns their last innovation, they're not exposing their new cars.

exactly why I chose the screen name I have, I can see through the glass your looking through, its all in particular taste...this "avant guard" isnt the view I would go...i mean there is a plethora ( srry had to use it ) off visual references that could translate faster reaction between intelligence and action that would be beautiful without that "Ballzack/In living Color's Head Detective visual..but hey to each his own.. regardless..nothing but love for ya tommy :-]

For those anchored to a different generation:

I like the simplicity of the creative solution. However, I worked on Mercedes for years and this seems way off target for their brand.

I wish the idea was done for VW or Honda.

Let's hope they have at least picked really expensive shoes for this campaign

Somehow this is very very awkward.

I agree...

We've had heads coming out of socks; now we've got heads coming out of shoes. I think this route does an injustice to a brand like Mercedes-Benz.

Maybe it needs coordinated release of a series of bobble heads to redeem it. Maybe not.
