Although the toys featured in the BIC Alcaline Battery ad campaign look like they are on the verge of succumbing to a very scary Chucky complex, their intense expressions do convey just how powerful these batteries are.
With widened eyes and teeth that are definitely set on edge, this doll and teddy bear look like they are hopped up on something. Interestingly enough, although a person would easily dismiss this ad as targeting children, these insights show that they really would appeal to an adult audience more.
