First Look! New Home Depot Ad Campaign!

Since the demise of the beloved Homer D. Poe, home improvement retail giant has been on the hunt for a new mascot. In a worldwide search rolled out last year, CEO and Chairman Bob Nardelli has reccomended Blixa, lead singer of the the German industrial techno band Collapsing New Buildings. Although an odd choice for a mascot, insiders for the building supply store have high hopes for the new campaign.


Our far-reaching sources here, at benmarvin.blogspot.com, have obtained secret footage of pilot commercials that were taped under the code name "Hornbach Superstore". Home Depot's advertising department hopes to roll these out this summer, replacing the weak current advertising lineup with a "new generation of consumer education" as one spokesperson puts it. Hope you enjoy:

• Blixa recommends a strong mosquito killer.
• Blixa can't get enough of these new paving stones.
• Blixa not love a power drill? Pshaw!
• Blixa on paint.
