M&M's Transformer Campaign Kicks Off

Mars Snackfood has released its press release to official kick-off its Transformers partnership with Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen which includes an update to their website. The campaign will run from May through July.
As anticipation for the summer blockbuster builds, Mars Snackfood US will also be rolling out a full-contact, “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen”-themed marketing campaign in support of the limited-edition products. Specific marketing campaign executions include:

- Action film director Michael Bay is putting his signature touch on a dramatic television commercial in which animated M&M’S® Brand characters, “Red” and “Yellow,” team up with the popular AUTOBOT® OPTIMUS PRIME™, to deliver the M&M’S® Strawberried Peanut Butter Chocolate Candies to stores around the country. The commercial will debut on June 1, 2009.

- Michael Bay himself will become an M&M’S® character for a new “Inner M” print ad that will be featured in June issues of Entertainment Weekly, US Weekly and USA Weekend. The print advertising is an extension of the brand’s “Inner M” equity campaign which encourages Americans to find their fun side and embrace their “Inner M.”

- Consumers will be able to join “Red” and “Yellow,” as well as other “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” characters on a digital scavenger adventure on www.mms.com, as well as other sites throughout the Web, beginning May 19, 2009.

- Kyle Busch’s No. 18 M&M'S® car in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series will sport a special “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen”-themed paint scheme during the June 21, 2009, race at Infineon Raceway, where Busch took the checkered flag last year. The special paint scheme features movie title decals on the hood, trunk and TV panel and the M&M’S® Brand “Red,” “Green” and “Yellow” characters modified into “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” characters.

  5. Im sorry that I got the comments removed on the Devastator thread. I have been dealing with a lot from everyone here and it truly hurts my feelings when you all come down on me. I provide links for the admin to post and I have good theories. Sorry.

  6. You are not the one that should be apologizing as you did nothing wrong. The whole point is the speculation. That is the fun of stuff like this. All kinds of spoilers and ultimately we really just don’t know that much. Not really. Those acting like they do and attacking others for not agreeing with them (or simply being jealous of attention they are not getting) should move on as don’t need them here.

  8. blog owner, look at the posts by other young kids like RY, they do not state what they think as fact. or profess to be the voice of transformer fans everywhere.

    that is one of the biggest reason people do not like Scorpio, me being one of them. he comes off as an arrogant prick pardon the language, and that is what people object to.

  12. I've never seen Scorp do anything but provide what he felt were potentially interesting links, as well as some personal theories on what might happen - and last time I checked, that's what this blog is for. If you check the blogmaster's credits for each post that he makes, you'll find that Scorp is credited for a good amount of them, which shows that what he brings is valuable.

    Not to mention the fact that in all the time that I've been around here, I don't think I've EVER seen Scorp say a negative word about any of you that are constantly criticizing him, which says a lot about his character.

    You all need to just let go of the whole "we hate Scorpio" thing and let's just concentrate on why we're here: Transformers and everything related to them.

    As for the Strawberry Peanut Butter Chocolate M&M's. Seems like there're too many flavors going on in there. I'll reserve judgment until I can taste their sweet, sweet chocolatey goodness for myself.

    Yes you should be! I only just get back and i find that the comments have been closed to the Devastator post and everyone is saying how much they hate me or why they hate me. Seriously dude i dont mind you voicing your opinion but stay off my profile please :)

    -you do not have good theories scorpio.
    and you do not provide links, tfw2005 does, you are trying to take credit for others work.

    I do not claim the links are mine in most of them i actually state where i found them. Sorry to offend you but if i didnt post the links on here you might have to wait days later to talk about something that could have been posted today.

    I do not state my posts as fact i simply relay my opinions what the other Scorpio has done i do not know please ignore him while i test out how to post without anyone copying me.

    Hopefully that will stop arguements. Yes i am called Matthew. Yes Scorpio is a fake name i created as a book idea.

  20. and so what if i like boys, you guys never stop complaining about anything.

    here let me take credit for someone else's photos of a transformer.
    the only way i can feel good about myself is if i keep posting to make it seem i have something of value to offer.

  21. Okay the above post is that idiot again who keeps copying me. My guess is he is most likely the person who posted under "Cant Stand Scorpio" as he seems to be the only one who tried to offend me in this topic. Just ignore him.

    And how many more times do i have to say this i am straight i like girls and have had sex with one of them. Unlike the person who keeps using my username. Please ignore all posts that offend anyone or undermine myself or others on this blog
