Sony Xploding Car Audio Ads

Print Advertising December 13th, 2006

This is the latest installment of print ads from crappy car audio speaker producer Sony for the “Xplod”s which will defenitely explode if you turn the volume up just a tad. The new ads are supposed to depict the powerful sound the speakers provide and the intensity on the listener. I have personally had Sony Xplod’s in my 1995 Monte Carlo years back and the things ‘exploded’ after only 2 weeks. After that, I always bought the Best Buy warranty.

Quattro Titanium Razor Egg Cartons Ad

Print Advertising, Outdoor Advertisements December 5th, 2006

New advertisements for razors depicting the smoothness of their products on your face by applying the blade to egg cartons are springing up left and right. More specifically, the Quattro Titanium Razor is featured with egg faces to show how smooth the razor can make your face. The advert is a very clever idea though seeing people’s faces on eggs is still rather corny. Seeing one of those eggs crack with egg goo would creep the hell out of me.
