Inspired by Japanese robot anime, Taco Bell created a short commercial by the name of Fry Force that tells the story of a character's brother who gets taken by monsters who love Nacho Fries. To avenge her brother, the character assembles her very own Fry Force and the one-minute commercial even comes with its own plot twist—it's been her brother who has been controlling the fry-loving monsters all along. The commercial brings awareness to Taco Bell's $5 Nacho Fries box and the all-new Loaded Taco Fries.
