When Richard Fuisz’s Kobold Watch is taken, he must utilize a very particular set of skills to get it back. The first part in the Legend of Johnny the Mailman Campaign, Johnny is introduced as the mastermind thief who may have stolen from the wrong person.

Richard Fuisz is the ex-head of the CIA in Syria, and holds over 200 patents to his name. A close friend and Brand Ambassador for Kobold Expedition Tools, he was thrilled to be a part of the process. He even brought along Michael Gandolfini to help AD on the set.

Originally a send-up of Liam Neeson's notorious Taken speech, the spot evolved as Richard's real-world experience upset our notions of Hollywood spy-games. We had to work with Fuisz to get the perfect take under time constraints, due to his busy schedule, but the final product speaks to his quick apprehension and our smooth operations.
