Who would want to co-opt Ubisoftâs bothersome mascots, the Raving Rabbids? Russian salad maker Belaya Dacha, apparently, who have swiped the leporine mischief makersâor a very, very close approximationâto shill their pre-packaged salad greens.
A helpful tipster turned us on to Belaya Dachaâs salad spot, which he says was created by the Bazelevs Group, a media company founded by Timur Bekmambetov. Heâs the director of Angelina Jolie vehicle Wanted and the Day Watch/Night Watch movies. Belaya Dacha plans to continue making the ads starring these âĐĐ°Đž (bunnies).â
We contacted Ubisoft to see if they were aware of or approve of the stars of Rayman Raving Rabbids and Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time pimping Russian salad mixes, but they havenât responded. Perhaps theyâre just as stunned as we are that anyone would glom these annoying little creatures.
