Prediction: On the fence
This is the Beat Blaster with the correct positioning (100% toward children) and done by the master of kids' DR (the True Top Producer for the fall of 2011). That said, I still have an inherent problem with this product. As I wrote before: "You need to try this product and hear it live before you'll want to buy it. It's 100% 'wow factor,' and you can't really be wowed by the item through your TV."
This commercial tries to compensate for that shortcoming with special effects, but I think that approach lacks the necessary credibility. Still, the believability bar is lower for kids, so there's a good chance they'll get what this does and want to try it enough to pester their parents. (Love the slogan, by the way. "Boom! It's a speaker!")
