Come On, Collectibles only Ripen with Sponsorship!

CollectiblesToday.com is promoting these M&M-sponsored Ashton-Drake dolls as its top Christmas gift this year. Each six-inch “Heavenly Handful” (cringe) sports an M&M’s onesie with a matching cap, complete with darling one-liners like “Never let ’em see you melt” and “Sweet on the inside.” My favorite, though, has to be “There’s a little nut.”

Lest anyone try replacing a nearby child’s Bratz doll too hastily, this ad takes pains to remind you the collection is to be “enjoyed by adult collectors” only. So keep your grubby paws off, kid; those non-blinking M&M’s evangelists are staying behind the glass case, preferably in the living room.

V-v-v-via.
