Mercedes-Benz & KidSuper | Flying is optional. Arriving in style is essential.
Welcome to KidSuper Ave, where we follow around our neighbourhood hero, and his custom sidekick. They don't follow blueprints, they follow instincts!
We got tagged in by Stink TV to direct and execute the animated parts of this super fun collaboration between Mercedes-Benz & KidSuper.
