I've got an oven similar to that one, but it's not a Flavorwave Oven. The time only runs up to 60 minutes, and you have to keep resetting it something you're cooking takes more than an hour! I don't use it now.
I DO HOWEVER, have an auctual Thane Flavorwave Oven w/ a glass-enclosed Halogen heater that is bigger that the one Mr. T is pushing. And it DOES work great!
Looks like he lost some weight. He doesn't look as big as he did during the days when he starred in The A Team in the '80s!

Haha!!
I forgot about that famous catch phrase that he always uses!
He also used it in the TV commercial that he used to do - the 1-800-COLLECT one;
"I pity the fools who don't know how to save a buck or two!!"

Looks like he's lost some of the "bling" too.

Is the bing all that gold that he used to wear?
Or is it the mean & nasty look shown on his face? He donated all of that gold as a charity effort.
He had some form of cancer a while back, but he's said to have beaten it.

It's bling:
Bling-bling (or simply bling ) is a slang term in hip hop culture referring to flashy or elaborate jewelry and ornamented accessories that are carried, worn, or installed, such as cell phones or tooth caps .

I saw part of that infomercial, and what a ridiculous way to market a product. It was a truly sad sight to see.
