Have a look . . . but it's kind of shocking (we'll not for me) . . but it would have changed the world a little bit and that's why I posted it in the 'Jokes section'.

But greatly done if you ask me

I wonder if Mercedes has contacted the people who made this ?

Very clever and very well done but maybe it would have been easier to swallow if they'd showen the kid pulling the wings off flies or breaking windows rather than innocently playing with his kite...?

I can see why they have the "not affiliated" stuff all over it but I'm still not sure that will stop Mercedes getting Medieval on their ass!

Wow. Very well done. I think Mercedes will leave this one alone. They did have quite an association with the Nazis back in the day so I'm guessing this could only help increase the divide.

Shocking! I love this. It would be awesome if MB actually used this. I wonder if the quasi-swastika shaped body at the end is intentional.

Wow! Really pushing the envelope on this one. If MB is smart they'll avoid this like the plague
