Seeing the SMB3 thread reminded me of these and how I owned like half of them.

And 2 years later, they had the much lamer McDino Changeables of which I only had the Hot Cakes one.

Anyone else remember these?

Of course, these were FUCKING awesome. I definatley had Fry-Bot and the Shake. These were so much fun.

I miss the days when McDonald's toys were still cool and not sooo cheap.

Oh my god I so had those. In fact I think I still have a complete set buried somewhere in my box of stuff. Maybe not complete, but I know I had two hamburgers, a frybot, and a coke/shake. OH and I had the ice cream guy!

God I had forgotten about those. Those things were the SHIT, man. Also agreed that the dinos were pale imitations.

Lessee, I believe I had both fry-related ones, the shake, the ice cream cone and the McNuggets pack.

They should really bring these back. McDonalds's never has good, original toys these days.

Didn't McD's do like some anniversary Happy Meal with their more well-received prizes from different eras a few years back?

I was wondering what those were called! I found some at a garage sale a long, LONG while back and I simply couldn't remember what they were! I played with them for a while, then lost them, and seeing this... I wish I had them back. Crying

Knowing my passion for planes, my colleagues decided to give me a humorous birthday present – a radio-controlled helicopter. You would think that I am a serious, respectable man, who has just turned 47. However, I was as a happy as a three-year-old boy when I got my present. My daughter, who is ten, is also keen on this cute toy. Last night, my daughter and I spent some time browsing the manufacturing company’s website - NAME REMOVED - looking for more toys to buy.

If anyone wants to get any of these for cheap and happens to be in the Tacoma WA area the Pacific Run Antique Mall has bags of them (and other assorted McDonald's Toys) for like a few bucks a bag. They used to have cool stuff like Vintage Transformers and GI Joes but some some Toy Collecting Shop bought em all up and started selling for what they're actually worth.

That is very cool, I wish there were more second hand toy shops in my area.

This is the best place I can think of for this question, my brother had these McDonalds toys that looked like food (nuggets box, drink cup, etc) and turned into spy equipment. I was too old for McDonalds, but I thought they were kinda neat. anybody remember those things or what they were called?

The nuggets box turned into a camera and the cup turned into a gun, I don't remember the rest
