There is a local discount chain in my area called Forman Mills. Those who live near and around me know how annoying their commercials on television can be. As I was catching up on some behind the scenes stuff at JTA, I glanced up while the commercial was running because I heard "Star Wars" and thought I saw a TVC-styled card back of Kylo Ren. I said "nah, no way." As the commercial went off (and as I thought I was experiencing a mirage), I knew from experience that these commercials come on multiple times within minutes of each other. As expected, the commercial came on again but this time I was ready with my cell phone camera. I was right. Would you believe that Forman Mills used a custom TVC-styled Kylo Ren figure in their commercial? It is from Pinterest and can be seen RIGHT HERE. From Pinterest to a TV commercial. It's pretty funny that a TVC-styled card back is what grabbed Forman Mills first to promote Star Wars, huh? Actually it's not too surprising at all. It seems that Hasbro is the only company that chooses to not believe in the power of vintage-styled packaging. Could you imagine if the line came this way instead? Talk about FALSE ADVERTISING! (Or maybe it's just that Hasbro doesn't tell them anything either about The Force Awakens line and they have to rely on Google for their images too!)
