  • I see nothing wrong with it.

    Though I saw what the toys look like and I'll pass. McDonald's collaborated with a fashion brand for this one and they made the classic Micky D characters look like aliens. I don't understand some of the collabs companies have these days. It always seems to uglify an item.

    • I just looked them up and they’re hideous, what’s the purple blob even supposed to be?

      • Purple blob? That's Grimace. He's one of the retro McDonalds Characters. The Other two retro characters in the set are Birdie and The Hamburglar. The smiley face toy is some guy the fashion brand owns or something.

        I really don't get why they don't have one for Ronald McDonald. I miss that stupid clown mascot. XD

        • Old grimace looks so cuddly, I’d definitely have liked him as a kid. I heard they phased out Ronald McDonald after the 2016 killer clown controversy.

          • Yeah I suppose that was one of the reasons they phased him out. I feel like enough time has passed that everyone has forgotten about the clown stuff. XD

          • Fun fact: Grimace originally had four arms. He was a villain who stole milk shakes.

            • I get so much joy watching retro commercials from the 50s-80s. They're mostly from a time period I never lived through but it's fun watching a human time capsule of a bygone era. XD

    • This is a clear example of the infantilization of our society. Nobody wants to be an adult anymore.

      • I don't see an issue with enjoying kiddy stuff as long as it doesn't get in the way of things needed to survive.

        I like plushies, anime, video games, and I still dress like I did when I was a teen. At the same time I still pay all my bills on time, I go to work five days a week, I exercise four days a week, and I can budget for just about anything. XD
