Garbarino, the Argentinian equivalent to Best Buy here in the U.S., has embarked on a multi-million dollar advertising campain with Christopher Lloyd returning as 'Doc Brown' in a series of commercials for the electronics giant.

The first in a series of viral videos which were authorized by Universal Studios and Amblin Entertainment, a boy is videoing his girlfriend with a camera phone across the street from a Garbarino store late at night in Buenos Aires, when suddenly the DeLorean time machine appears in the background and crashes into the Garbarino store. They run across the street towards the crash with the shaky video still recording, just as Doc Brown lifts up the gullwing door in a puff of smoke, steps out and asks them what year it is.
 

 
A second viral video appeared online shortly after the first one did, showing 'security cam' footage of Doc Brown's wreck:
 

BTTF.com's own Oliver & Terry Holler were hired by Garbarino to ship their DeLorean Time Machine replica to Argentina earlier this month and meet Christopher Lloyd there for the secretive shoot.  A number of behind-the-scenes photos from the commercial's filming can be found below.
