>a happy meal set where each toy can conceivably function

>>6259763
I just wish it was cartoon Gadget and not dopey faced, Hit-and run murdering Matthew Broderick.

>>6259763
Holy shit, that takes me back. All I had was the left arm, but I was in that age/poverty stage where that was enough.

>>6259783
see, that's why i like the concept so much. a kid could have just an arm and it'd still be a great toy

just wanted to dredge up some more nostalgia, but anyone remember these?

the backstreet boys and stan lee (!) came together and made a superhero team, and burger king put out a set of kids club toys

never got the whole set but they look fun

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backstreet_Project

>>6259786
Oh shit I had the red one way to pull this out of the recesses of my memory.

>>6259784
Yeah, but it had to be the left arm since the water gun was pitiful.

This toy, and the fact that it was a potential competitor for Power Rangers is the only reason I remember Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog.
Each set was a hero or villain, and it came with a piece that acted as an accessory, or if you collected them all you could make this dragon.

I had the >>6259763 left arm and >>6260015 beetle. Wow nostalgia feels good.

>>6259763
I liked some of the "train" sets, and I would try to connect as many as I could, and then ride them around the floor. It would've been a successful train ride if all the carts were doing their tricks.

The fuck happened to them?

>>6260175
again, they had some high quality horse toys a while ago but they really dont give a shit anymore. i remember when they used to do metal hotwheels. that was the shit

>>6259763
I have a great childhood memory of traveling with my family on a vacation to Boston the summer this came out and trying to track down every piece.

Wasn't there a Mickey Mouse too, that was kinda similar to that Insp. Gandget? Like the legs were binoculars if I remember correctly, but don't know what the other parts did.

>>6260083
>>6260090
I genuinely consider these to be the best Mcdonalds toys. Second place goes to the various Changeables toys that turned into various Mcdonalds menu items.

>>6260145
uhh... Inspectah Deck, Ghost Face Killah, Method Man, RZA, GZA, Old Dirty Bastard, Raekwon the Chef, and U-God?

I know it's not quite a toy but one of my absolute favorite McDonalds promos was when they did the Yu-Gi-Oh cards years back. You'd get two cards and the poster in each meal, but instead of just doing those, every meal included one of three unique CD-Roms themed around Yugi, Kaiba, and Pegasus, each with games and trivia and show clips on them, and as a bonus, if you put the CDs into a CD player they had secret music tracks on them off the official soundtrack of the series.

It was just really cool as a kid fan of the show. Moreso than shoehorned figures of the characters would have been.

>>6260350
There were a few good ones. Cosmo Queen and Millenium Shield were fun to fuck around with, Ushi Oni was good for one tribute back then, and Goddess of Whim still occasionally shows up in online decks since with some luck her 3 star attributes give her access to weird equips for a base 1900ATK.

They didn't combine, but these were pretty cool. The shells split in half and you could mix and match them to make new dinosaurs. There were only so many combinations, but I was hyped for these when they came out and lliterally could not have gone on living without the complete set.

I dint have it anymore but I have strong memories of a dark green/olive 4 prong claw thing

This is one of the things I miss the most, the Lego sets were always fun. Simple, but fun. And always easy to get combiners out of - I still remember how these ones had not only instructions for one big combiner, but also for multiple smaller ones in case you only had two or three sets.

Those were the best. They came out right at the peak of pokemon popularity, were great all around little figures, and even came with a pokeball.

I heard the balls were recalled due to some idiot trying to eat one or something though.

It was a kid who got the red part with the notch over his nose and mouth and it air-sealed when he sucked in and he suffocated. I still remember that they were telling people to bring it back for free french fries.

>>6260688
These were fun, and so much better than the usual transformers toys we got in the past where the only real transformation was a head flipping back. I think I had Optimus and Hotshot and the ambulance one.

>>6261373
I'm not sure that's the reason, lots of happy meal toys still have small parts, Lego probably is just too expensive for them to use as a free toy anymore.

>>6262500
Then why even fucking bother to do a lego Movie tie in? There are a thousand other fucking concepts for them to use. Worst comes to worst they do their thousandth Hot Wheels/Barbie/MLP tie-in

>>6260015
the panther and manta ray were one of my most played with toys as a kid

were they transformers or knock offs?

>>6263304
Real Transformers in the sense that Hasbro licensed the IP to McD's for Happy meal toys.

>>6263306
nice, thought so

i remember playing with the manta ray in the bath all the time
the panther would wait on the side of the bath for the manta to come close and then the manta would leap out of the water and theyd transform and fight

IIRC the actual reason is that The LEGO Group doesn't wanna associate with fastfood chains anymore, which is why the last LEGO-related promotion with actual toys was way back in 2009. The Happy Meal promos for The LEGO Movie and The LEGO Batman Movie are all the doing of Warner Bros.

Although it's also possible that the actual bricks were considered choking hazards, since even in 2009 they had to make large prefab parts.

Not really true. Mc D just had a huge promotion with Pokemon toys a few months ago here (EU) and they were flying with the popularity of Go. Also right now they have Transformers/MLP and both figures are pretty good. I have 2 nephews and a niece and they just loved those toys.

There was a Jungle Book set from McDonalds that might have been from the second movie but you could build stuff with square panels.

There's also one from Peter Pan (also from the sequel movie I think?) that you could build the Jolly Rodger from them.
