The new Hot Wheels print ad campaign depicts 'finger paintings' of tiny people posing along side of the latest Hot Wheels toy cars. In the first image there is a buxom model lounging on a red Ferrari, next a Hip Hop dude is leaning against his pimped out white ride and lastly a blue-suited blonde race driver beside his Pilot F1 race car.
The toy cars look so real that with the 'finger models' you would think they were life-size.
Mattel Mexico hired ad agency Ogilvy & Mather Mexico to create these award winning ads - they have won a Cannes Lions 2008 Outdoor Bronze Award.
