....but here in France. Sorry people
Just seen a tv commercial today with a bunch Elite Force Figs and vehicles (sherman, little bird, Apache, Corsair...). For french people it's airing on Gulli (seen it this sunday at 18h30).
No new stuff, and I don't think it's an official BBI one, it's a "Joue club" commercial. But they try to give life to the fig so it's pretty cool to watch.
I Will try to record it

That does sound cool! At least you're getting commercials for this stuff in France. 21c and BBI do not have any regularly airing TV commercials (that I know of) here in the US. I did once see a commercial for Unimax Forces of Valor (FOV) tanks, but that was 3 years ago

ok my vlc is ready to record it... but I was not able to see it this evening...let's try again tomorrow.
blaster_e11> hum, if I remember the last time I went to The village jouet Club in Paris, I saw screen where they used to play their commercials...maybe you can watch the elite force one there now.
tmanthegreat> Ok, I was just asking myself before posting if you have bbi/21c tv commercial in the USA, because it let me breathless, I even took seconds to realize what was on my tv screen...
- me waching gulli with my daughter -
[me] oO(...hum what this interesting thing on tv, it look like toys)
[me] o0( soldier toys, hum...damned!)
[me] "HEY I KNOW HIM"
- daughter stopping to suck her pacifier and now looking at me -
[me] "BEN BEN" (my wife nickname)
- LLBird flying on screen -
[me] "COME HERE! elite force on TV..."
- wife running...-
- BBI corsair crossing the tv screen -
[Ben] "cool*"
- end of the commercial -
[me] "did you seen this ?"
- daughter starting again to suck her pacifier -
* don't know the real meaning of this from her
supersonicfifi> yes it's expensive... but right now we have 1euro = 1,30$... so it could be even worst !!!
Scope uk> yeah the fact that in the end of this ad you see the Joue club logo took a bit of excitation out of me, I would prefer a BBI one. Anyway thank you Joue club to import bbi and to make a tv commercial.

Very cool.. Interesting how they mixed the WWII guys up with Modern equipment but I'm sure it's exactly what all the kids will do when they buy them.. Looks fun

Fun to see our toys (um, sorry, models) in a TV slot! I have to chuckle, however, as its in French
