Annoying Adverts 2015

fucking hell, making the kessel run in £900 parsecs

and it'll be redundant as soon as the new film comes out cos they've made cosmetic changes to the ship
 
I'm glad the meerkats are leaving Oleg in Africa, let's hope the other two get eaten by hyenas soon :mad:
Speaking of price comparison websites, I guess we're meant to feel sorry and anxious for Brian the robot off Confused.com as he's kidnapped by rogue scrap metal dealers. But fear not- his chums are coming to the rescue. Here's hoping he gets fucking melted down.
 
there's one at the moment with a bloody awful 80's song that if anything is even worse than anything rick fucking astley did.

(nothing's gonna change my love for you - glenn medeiros)

i'm not sure what the heck it's an advert for as i either leave the room or change the bloody channel pretty damn quick.

in some ways i'd like to know what it's an advert for so i could make an effort not to buy the product

:mad:

In a delicious irony, it is actually an advert promoting television advertising as a powerful way to sell your products :D

Millenium Falcon partwork model kit - 100 issues @ £8.99 :eek:
That one made me :eek: :eek: :eek: as well - and the "build your own world globe" one for £600, although I did like that it comes with "comprehensive instructions", which are presumably something like:

1. Remove tiny model of Eiffel Tower
2. Stick in France
3. Wait for next month's magazine, admiring the tiny plastic slice of the earth's crust you now own but can't put anywhere for another 99 weeks

:D
 
Fucking Cadbury's Creme Egg ad on January 1st, for fucks sake.

And yeah, Brian for the fucking melting pot with that tiny twat Oleg strapped to him if I had my way.

Part works are such a scam. I wonder what percentage get finished 100% complete, how much they are then worth

I'd be very highly surprised indeed if the companies who print those those magazines with the building bits ever even plan to finish the print run never mind actually do it.

So are (presumably super-rare) 100% complete collections of whatever thing actually worth much in the end?

That Millenium Falcon - £900 + labour, but when finished how much will it be worth?

Just thinking out loud tbh

It is a good question, no doubt. Dunno how you'd even go about finding out, though.
 
It'll be worth fuck all. Do you remember that time on Cash In The Attic where someone's partwork model of Patrick Stewart's skull in his 'Insurrection' era uniform made loads of money? no, no you don't.

When it comes to SW memorabilia you have to remember how mass produced it is. Not unique. Unless you have toys produced between new hope and empire strikes back then you may as well jog on.


and there is no way on gods green earth a MF model will retail today at 900 quid. Swizz.
 
I suspect if you're serious about completing the model, you can buy off the entire publication and required parts in one go at a lower price instead of buying 100 weekly issues- at least that's how it worked in Spain when I was a wee lad. But they'd probably still want upwards of £500 for it, I reckon.
 
I see the Co-op annoying bread adverts have been resurrected on Comedy Central. "This is important bread. It has a job to do." FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF. It takes more than some cardboard toast to make up after a drunken row, you craven ballsack.
well actually my last relationship was saved temporarily by an oven toasted cheese sandwich, really.
It ended a year later (the relationship not the sandwich) but it was good while it lasted (the sandwich)
 
This is the weirdest one I've seen in a while.

Some young bloke gives a weird simmering sexy look to his boss. Unsettling.

 
Three, with their clutch of Welsh surfers farting on about owning the wave. An ad so painfully suit that it is trying to be sincere and ironic all at once. I hate it, I hate Three, I'm even veering towards hating the Welsh accent because of this unbearable shitpile.
