Awesome! Just received this press release from Fantasy Flight Games! Looks like there will be a commercial for the Kingdom Hearts Trading Card Game in select cities!

Fantasy Flight Games to Air TV Advertising for the Kingdom Hearts TCG Roseville, MN (November 19, 2007) Fantasy Flight Games announced today that they are initiating a four week television advertising campaign for the Kingdom Hearts Trading Card Game in select cities. "We're excited about reaching a new audience of gamers," said Jeremy Stomberg of FFG. "Kingdom Hearts is a hugely popular brand, and we're hoping that these commercials will help make US and Canadian Kingdom Hearts fans aware of the availability of the TCG in North America! We hope that retailers in these markets will experience the blockbuster potential of this new game." The 30-second commercial will be shown in the Minneapolis/St. Paul, Baltimore, Seattle, and Atlanta media markets. Channels will focus on the Cartoon Network, but will also include Toon Disney(Atlanta only), the Sci-Fi Channel (including spots in the highly anticipated Battlestar Galactica movie on November 23), as well as spots during the December 9th Video Game Awards on Spike TV.
