    Default M&M's Ad Campaign

    Just caught M&M's ad directed by Bay, featuring Prime as a delivery truck, where he proceeds to toss an M&M trailer.

    Here's the Tie-in website (you can watch the ad there):

    Edit: Click the TV monitor above Red M&M guy.

    Cool. Not sure why Optimus would ever throw a trailer, but cool.

    I love the slow clap at the end.

    Who knows, maybe he was fed up with lugging around a pointless trailer for 25+ years. Ooh, G1 burn! (j/k folks)

    Dammit, the site is a b*tch to load. Hopefully somebody will upload it on YouTube.

    The slow clap combined with Yellow's blank stare, with a smile.

    Amazing haha!

    guys that is CGI from the movie I believe. the transformation looks identical to that one in the tv spot and the throwing thing is probably optimus throwing a decepticon or something... they are just filling in the blanks u know? thats my guess!

    Maybe they just said to deliver the shipment, but didn't specify how....see that's why people should be more careful with what they say

    Besides, everyone has a bad day.

    What I would love to see is M&M/TF characters like what they did for the Star Wars movie. That would be cool.

    They already did that. Go find some M&M packs at the store and you will see Red as Optimus Prime, Yellow as Starscream, Blue as Megatron, etc...

    I didn't mean the artwork. I meant actual figures. When the last star wars prequal came out M&M came out with little action figure M&M's as Star Wars figures really cool.

    I need to get another bag of the M&M's. My mom ate most of my first one.
    They call me Ratchet Girl for a reason. Sometimes Skids girl.
    Yeah, I'm a girl...SO FREAKING WHAT????

    If you buy 5 or more M&M packs from Target, you can submit your receipt for an Optimus Red Candy Dispenser.
