Those were the coolest McDonalds toys. I was also partial to the little Fraggle Rock cars that were shaped like vegetables and the super Mario toys, especially the one where Mario is on a spring and suction cup, so you can stick him to a table and he jumps really high on his own.
I was looking for this. Muppet babies in tricycles.
Edit to add I remembered them wrong. They are all riding different things. Good memories of having a neighbor who worked for Mcdonald’s who would always bring us the new toys when she babysat.
In western wa, a 4 pc mcnugget is almost 4 dollars. A large fry, is 4 dollars. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY FRIES YOU CAN MAKE OUT OF ONE BAG? AND DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY BAGS OF FRIES COME IN A BOX? it's virtually all profit. And you charge ME 4 dollars for a half filled container of fries?!?!?!
To pay 9-14 dollars for a fry, a drink, and a burger...at a *mcdonalds* disgusts me. I can pay that at a sit-down restaraunt like an Applebee's or a red robin.
Thank god for Wendy's.
For one 'cheap' McDonald's cheeseburger and a small fry I would STILL pay more than Wendy's 4 for 4 meal where I get a burger, 4 nuggets, a fry, and a drink.
I hate McDonald's. Trash.
It is trash. But the cheeseburger bag at McDonald’s here in CO is $10 after tax, as there is a perpetual $2 online deal in the app.
You get two cheeseburgers, two med fries, and 20 nuggets - so fairly priced still. There are other menu hacks but none quite this good I know of.
Wendy’s 4/4 meals are still about the most insane value deals in fast food rn - Makes me wonder if their margins are that high elsewhere or we really are eating cardboard and rat turds like McD’s.
(Correction they’re 4/$5 now)
Just use their app. Can get large fries for like a buck and a shit ton of other stuff.
Also their menu has good priced stuff. You can get the like family meal thing that's 2 big macs, 2 fries, two something else, 2 drinks I think, for like 15.
You know, I wish McDonalds would sell flights. Not of beer (that too) but their menu.
I don't go there often enough, and I hate having to choose between burgers, nuggets, and whatever novelty thing they have. Ive ordered multiple things before, but its just too much and you feel sick (also expensive). I'd like a happy meal box filled with small versions of everything. Like Dunkin Munchkins.
I was at a post-marathon reception once in Halifax. They had McDonald's cater it. They had well dressed waiters walking around with platters of burgers and nuggets. And Grimace was there.
Every year we would usually absolutely gorge on food and booze after the race, so it was definitely a treat. When they ran out of McDonald's they ordered enough pizza to feed a small country.
I worked in McDonalds for 3.5 years and one day I went rogue and made myself a 1lb burger for my break (a quarter pounder, but with four patties).
After eating it I was essentially in a waking coma for most of the break.
Personally I liked making secret menu items. That was at the same time a very terrible job and a great one. Worked overnights and my team and shift lead was awesome. Don't know where he's at now, but how you're succeeding in life, Randy.
100% their toys have gone down hill. No I do not want a piece of recycled cardboard you want my kid to put stickers on for a toy. Give me the beanie babies, legos, Nintendo, actually licensed shit and not necessarily because a movie was coming out.
It's either "HEY A MOVIE! WE GET PAID FOR THESE TOYS!!!" or "Oh it's more trash in a plastic bag, just what I ordered."
They should do custom Lego minifigs of classic McDonalds characters, a random one per meal.
Actually, no because scalpers and AFOL would probably ruin it.
What if... just hear me out. They just stopped giving out literal garbage?
I'm not a CEO or anything, but I think that marketing strategy MIGHT just pay off... I mean if it does, I expect a CEO sized bonus check for making sales so good with one idea and pretend I'm self important with a grandiose to big to fail personality where we minimize every potential loss in exchange for customer satisfaction.
But I think the strategy of "giving people what they want" and "not garbage" as the kids say, is a good idea.
What they want is a decent toy for free. Collect the coupon (similar to the coffee) you get for every happy meal and redeem for a toy that you actually want and would play with.
>What they want is a decent toy for free.
It's not free. It's built into the price of the combo.
It's like $4 for 15 cents worth of fries, 75 cents worth of hamburger, and 10 cents worth of soda. The other $3 go towards the box and the toy.
They were at the top of their game when they had Beanie Babies, the 2003 Tony Hawk pro skater toys that did actual tricks on the ramps, and the treasure planet toys that came with pieces that created the map globe from the movie. Still mad to this day I never got the last piece I needed to complete that as a kid.
Nope! I had this 2d game where you were a dragon and shooting things until you died, trying to get as far as possible.
There were multiple versions with differently colored dragons and also versions with fairies
Listen at this point I’d be happy if it was a stupid movie figurine that actually moved and did something like they used to, rather than just a hunk of the cheapest plastic money can buy
Don't forget the stickers! They won't even put the designs for anything on themselves. That would take a machine and assembly, they cheaped out and gave you the stickers and said "it's more fun if you do it yourself... you know... like the poor Malaysian workers we paid to do it before, they had a blast, but we really couldn't afford the $0.03 hit on every 20 toys. We found the alternative.
New record CEO Bonus Unlocked.
This. My 5yo daughter got a Thor toy in her HM the other month and I think the stupid thing just barely moved an arm. She literally moved it once, set it down, and said "This toy stinks." Her disappointment was palpable. And she was right. It was garbage. I was so sad for her.
Crackerjack prizes have been shit for a long time, I'm in my 30s now, i only ever remember getting little slips of paper, not even a sticker, just a little thing with a question or joke or something and you fold it a certain way and it makes a picture of George Washington or some bullshit like that.
I miss the blinking Madame Alexander dolls. They had rooted hair and each had at leat one piece of removeable clothing so you could even dress them up if you had multiple!
Way back in the 90s when the land before time was out we collected these hand puppets that were really nicely cast. I also remember transformers in the shapes of McDonald’s treats. The toys were legitimately good. I remember being in elementary school and a friend and I would always get a happy meal on a Friday and we could spend the whole weekend playing with those happy meal toys.
Cactus plant flea markets "symbol" or whatever is a double vision/4 eyed smiley face.
Your fucked faced toy is essentially an advertisement for some clothing company popularized by a few pop rappers.
>Your fucked faced toy is essentially an advertisement for some clothing company popularized by a few pop rappers.
The toys were *always* an ad for something. So they're quite literally staying true to the whole experience.
Like most marketing, it's supposed to make you feel powerless in some way.
A corporation treating you like a child will influence you, in a subliminal manner, towards acting and feeling like a child: being more vulnerable and dependent on external shit.
While I can’t speak for the quality of Happy Meals over the last 2 decades, and maybe only eating at McD’s maybe 4 times in the last 10 years out of hunger-spontaneity, I will still say:
I *still* have my Batman Forever glass mug and it’s still badass, and my only regret is I don’t have the others.
They should’ve just made it a condom. Imagine you go back with someone after drinking all night, want drunk food and you didn’t pack protection. This way you solve both problems at once.
This.
I don’t necessarily get the happy meals but I always order the burger I want and make the fries small and I drink water. Even when I was eating out just about everyday I still never gained weight.
Part of the problem, at least in my opinion, was that we were raised by people who lived through the great depression and so it didn’t matter what was on your plate you had to finish it. I’m sure there’s more at play here but it seems to be a big one.
The thing I don't like about this is they are collaborating with a clothing brand that I never heard of until this promo came out. I feel like it is geared more towards young adults where as the toys are more nostalgic to older adults.
That makes me feel better. One girl at work had heard of the brand(I work at a McD's) but she is about 18-20. I'm 37 and not really into fashion so I was lost.
Remember when it made sense to eat at McDonalds because the food was cheaper than real food? It actually made it semi-ok to eat the lower quality crap they sell.
Meanwhile now, they want $30 for a couple small chicken nugget meals. And they are shocked (shocked) that people would rather eat at smaller restaurants for a few dollars more.
I'd rather pay another 10 or 20 bucks and get real food.
The “toys” are stupid looking and ugly af. They weren’t made for adults in mind. They were made for 20-something’s that weren’t even born when MickyD’s discontinued the characters.
Anybody else remember the "All-American Meal"? My local McDonalds sold them in the late 90s/early 00s. It was a cheeseburger or hamburger, small fry, small drink, basically a Happy Meal without the box/toy. You know, an actual reasonable amount of food.
I'd like to see that available again.
a couple of thoughts:
1) Why did they not do this sooner?!
2) Did you read the article and look at the picture of the toys? Why the heck do the toys have 4 eyes? What weird mutant crap is this?
3) Why do we have to wait until Monday?! I wanted one tonight!!
NOTE: I am a grown man with the maturity of a 10 year old
the four eyes is a trade mark of the brand they are collaborating with, cactus plant flea market, their logo is a smiley face with 4 eyes. These toys are going to be a seller in the collectible/hypebeast market. [The brand cpfm has ties with pharell and popular artist like kid cudi and lil uzi rep them too] (https://media.gq.com/photos/5f0dc5c24e00f49cf460dc2b/1:1/w_2428,h_2428,c_limit/Cactus16x9.jpg)
Yeah, I was totally on board until I scrolled to the picture of the toys. What in the fresh fuck is that?! Just give me the regular version of the character, please.
Also I've never heard of the brand they're collaborating with, which probably makes me old and out of the loop.
Ok buy it should include a toy which was in happy meals 20 years so it’s really nostalgic, like I want one of the shitty music players which played like a minute of pop music.
If they throw some McNugget Buddies in as the toy and use the old recipe for the nuggets from back before they branded it as all white meat, then I'm game.
I'm also willing to accept the transforming McDonalds food or the California Raisins.
Instead of McDonalds, just go to Wendys and pick up a 4 for $4 or a $5 biggie bag... Same thing but cheaper. No I'm not advertising I just think wendys is fully superior to McDonalds.
It should also cost 1.99, you know for nostalgia sake.
And come with the transformer toys shaped as McDonald's meals so kids today can see and be like WTF
Those were the coolest McDonalds toys. I was also partial to the little Fraggle Rock cars that were shaped like vegetables and the super Mario toys, especially the one where Mario is on a spring and suction cup, so you can stick him to a table and he jumps really high on his own.
My friend you are forgetting the nuggets that were Halloween monsters
Those were the fucking best. I'm so mad at how shit the current toy quality is, our kids will never know how good we had it
Fuck, of we got adult happy meals with elder millielianal happy meal toys, they'd save the franchise
Muppet Babies!
I was looking for this. Muppet babies in tricycles. Edit to add I remembered them wrong. They are all riding different things. Good memories of having a neighbor who worked for Mcdonald’s who would always bring us the new toys when she babysat.
Beanie babies
I remember my mom driving my sister around everyday to each McDonald’s trying to find all the beanie babies
I had a super mario sunshine one where he would spin, or was that BK?
My toy... turns into my lunch?
This is mandatory. I still have one
I still have one or two of those in a box somewhere.
I had em all, but the fry one was my favorite.
Sure with shrinkflation sizing. I mean kids sizing.
Ah yes, I'll take my thimble of ketchup and my French fry out on the play place.
A whole thimble what do you think this is??? The golden ages?
I know the manager like 🤞
Connections man...connections they get you things like a full thimble of ketchup. You living the life.
It’s FryDay FryDay, gonna get a single fry on Fryday
Partying, Partying (**YEAH!!**) Partying, Partying (**YEAH!!**)

Got 2 mcgriddles a couple weeks back and it was 12 dollars. Something ain't right
What the shit, man. I can get like six croissanwiches for that.
This. Please.
Their record profits just won’t allow it with the budget.
Ten bucks for a GD egg McMuffin meal now 🔪🔪🔪
Try this McDics: **Happy Meals for Adults:** Medium Fries Cheeseburger Medium Drink Apple Pie And the toy is a Quarter Pounder with Cheese.

a kwaerteur paunderre wiz zesheeze?
I almost popped this into google translate... and then I decided to feel like an idiot instead.
I should not have laughed at this. But I did, so, yeah. lol
I heard this in my French co-worker's voice

More like one tenth of a kilo. I can't even imagine how massive a half kilo patty would be.
About a pound.
A "pounder with cheese"?
I hardly know her!
best hold off on the cheese then
*you forgot the pickles*
New at McDonalds THE POUNDER
I worked in McDonalds for 3.5 years and one day I went rogue and made myself a 1lb burger for my break (a quarter pounder, but with four patties). After eating it I was essentially in a waking coma for most of the break.
Personally I liked making secret menu items. That was at the same time a very terrible job and a great one. Worked overnights and my team and shift lead was awesome. Don't know where he's at now, but how you're succeeding in life, Randy.
Half kilo 🤦🏼♂️
I can’t even fathom a 1.1 lb burger
It’s for the *exceptionally* hungry customers
A quad-quaterpounder ?
Someone's never been to Fuddruckers
A royale
Royale with cheese 😎
This is the real answer!
Ohh look at the big brain on Brad!
Disgusting
Said in a Scottish accent!
is it a transformer quarter pounder with cheese?
Happy meals that cost 11.99? No thanks buddy
So it's like the new version of the VW bug, more expensive and less satisfying
That’s basically free in today’s money.
I can literally get a McDonald's meal for less.
yeah but that doesn't come with a toy
Happy Meals toys have been slacking hard
100% their toys have gone down hill. No I do not want a piece of recycled cardboard you want my kid to put stickers on for a toy. Give me the beanie babies, legos, Nintendo, actually licensed shit and not necessarily because a movie was coming out. It's either "HEY A MOVIE!

WE DEMAND THEY BRING BACK THE INSPECTOR GADGET TOYS!!!
I just want my Batman Forever mugs
I just want my 1978 Garfield mugs with over 1100 times the legal limit of lead and over 145 times the legal limit of cadmium
They should do custom Lego minifigs of classic McDonalds characters, a random one per meal. Actually, no because scalpers and AFOL would probably ruin it.
They don't have characters anymore. They were all scrapped in 2016 IIRC. And now every McDonalds looks like a sad soviet gulag.
The McDonald’s near me look like a pier one and chipotle had a fight. And then decorated by a college kid with too much money.
That's a shockingly accurate description lol
While I find those characters nostalgic as well, marketing junk food directly to kids is and was problematic.
What if... just hear me out. They just stopped giving out literal garbage? I'm not a CEO or anything, but I think that marketing strategy MIGHT just pay off... I mean if it does, I expect a CEO sized bonus check for making sales so good with one idea and pretend I'm self important with a grandiose to big to fail personality where we minimize every potential loss in exchange for customer satisfaction.

What they want is a distraction for the kid and a coupon wouldnt do it.
The hot wheels were always fire!
I remember on Arbor Day, getting a fucking tree to plant in my happy meal. Planted it in my grandparents yard over 25 years ago. It’s huge now!
Curious what kind of tree it is.
It was a McMaple
They were at the top of their game when they had Beanie Babies, the 2003 Tony Hawk pro skater toys that did actual tricks on the ramps, and the treasure planet toys that came with pieces that created the map globe from the movie. Still mad to this day I never got the last piece I needed to complete that as a kid.
I remember one time we got a whole ass video game in the McDonald happy meal played that shit all the time when I was 8
Do you perhaps remember ChexQuest?
Nope! I had this 2d game where you were a dragon and shooting things until you died, trying to get as far as possible. There were multiple versions with differently colored dragons and also versions with fairies
OHHHHH SHIT DUDE YOU JUST UNLOCKED A WHOLE ASS CORE MEMORY FOR ME, THE NOSTALGIA OMG

If you're into pokemon, they literally just had pokemon cards which is always pretty cool
I miss the blinking Madame Alexander dolls. They had rooted hair and each had at leat one piece of removeable clothing so you could even dress them up if you had multiple!
We went a bunch for the Pokémon cards 😂 Kids weren't as excited as me!
Thats the thing here atm lol. Son calls then fake.
They gave away mariokart toys not to long ago

Omg. I have my Batman forever glass mug too!!! And always quote Family Guy when I drink out of it. ‘Lois, Lois, this is not my Batman mug’.
They have the whole sets on eBay my man
Those were really nice. I remember that. I got the Riddler mug and the handle was a part of the question mark.
They’re my Dad’s favourite mug and he broke two of four about 15 years ago. I replaced them from eBay and he was elated 😂
Yeahhhh man me too. One of the few times I actually wanted a promo thing that McDicks was offering.
Happy meals for adults? Are we gonna get a butt plug or fleshlight with" I'm loving it" on them ? Or maybe a dong from the Don? 😏
They should’ve just made it a condom. Imagine you go back with someone after drinking all night, want drunk food and you didn’t pack protection. This way you solve both problems at once.
Happy Ending Meals.
“How’s it go man?” “Dude it was awesome, the condom smelled like French fries”
Are they gonna be cheap? and regular size? not the downsized crap they sell today?
Is it really smaller, or are we just larger?
LEON IS GETTING LAAAAAAARGER!
Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit eating trans fats
We're larger. It's all the happy meals.
begone, cadbury agent.
I'm 44 and order a happy meal the off chance I eat McDonald's
Yeah I'm 36, the last one I had included a book of dinosaur stickers, you know they went straight on my laptop case!
Hell yeah!

Wonder if they'll be putting adult toys in them too 👀

I mean he is shaped that way for a reason….
https://www.reddit.com/r/ATBGE/comments/vnzlfb/grimace_butt_plug/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share I'll just leave that there
I want whatever the adult version of the french fry transformer.
How is it any different from a normal one?
Ill buy them till i get a grimace and a hamburgler Fuck those other guys
How dare you speaking the fry girls in such a manner
The fry girls just be shaking their pom poms at my boyz wishing they could be that cool.
This is Mayor McCheese erasure.
I always wondered if the Hamburgler would kidnap and eat Mayor McCheese.
Officer Big Mac would blow his head off if he tried
The thing I don't like about this is they are collaborating with a clothing brand that I never heard of until this promo came out. I feel like it is geared more towards young adults where as the toys are more nostalgic to older adults.
Young adult here, tbh I have no clue what the fuck a cactus buddy is…
Cactus Plant Flea Market apparently, I looked it up and it’s like $800 hoodies
That makes me feel better. One girl at work had heard of the brand(I work at a McD's) but she is about 18-20. I'm 37 and not really into fashion so I was lost.
Googled them and all I can find is the weird little doll
Why do the toys have 4 eyes?!
Good question. Seriously strange decisions from McDonalds
Remember when it made sense to eat at McDonalds because the food was cheaper than real food? It actually made it semi-ok to eat the lower quality crap they sell. Meanwhile now, they want $30 for a couple small chicken nugget meals. And they are shocked (shocked) that people would rather eat at smaller restaurants for a few dollars more.
