    I used to love 90210, Jennie Garth was hot!. Rubicon Team?, all I know is they make awesome Mango juice.


    Very strange advert, why on earth have they gone with this Cowboy theme?

    Think there trying to copy those car dealership advertisement which always feature some dodgy guy with some gimmick to try and sell his cars.

    Yeah it looks like it after viewing it again. They use Moo Moo Farm and Wario's Mines to help it tie in, vaguely. Still, it's definitely a strange route to take but I guess it beats the "Wii would like to play" which is now tired.
