As if spoof ads were somehow interfering with their ability to make truckloads of money. I love it when corporations with bored lawyers try to shut down creativity on the web then turn around and try to attempt the same thing they were trying to eliminate. Seems about as useless and baffling as Optimus Prime having lips and eyebrows in the live action Transformers flick. And thanks for making me piss my pants in laughter with your contribution to the ad campaign. Although I have to admit that that Ziggy cartoon warmed me up. Oh Ziggy, how did you manage to delete all your files?! Put on some pants, you scamp! I think Hasbro tried to issue a weak cease and desist letter to a website that was spoofing the ads a while ago.
