creepy you can have mine bongo mcdonald's happy meal toys have been part of almost every kid's
life there are however some less than exciting toys that have come out over the years and today
we're going to look at the 10 creepiest mcdonald's happy meal toys we are all toys rasputin you want
a happy meal we'll get you one of those happy meals going to mcdonald's and getting a happy meal
is one of the most thrilling things as a kid not much can beat getting a shiny new toy to play with
in addition to some delicious french fries and a cheeseburger not all happy meal toys however are
created equal as a kid nothing was more depressing than opening up your happy meal to discover some
weird toy you'd never want to play with or worse a toy that will cause you harm that was the case
with this next movie themed toy the blockbuster animated film anastasia swept the country in 1997.
happy meal toys at the time marketed the film by giving children scary toys that rumbled rasputin
the film's haunting villain the toy's unique feature was that by pressing a little button
on his back you could take off the toy's head as well as other assorted body parts
that's more than just a little creepy isn't it many parents were dismayed to see
their children playing with this strange toy believing it to be too horrific for children
rasputin's true narrative is an extremely dark and distressing one making it one of
history's most unsettling stories not necessarily a kid-friendly motif for a mcds happy meal toy sky
dancers she looks like a dancing star kids in the 1990s were obsessed with these terrifying
wide-eyed laughing fairies who were hurled into the air by their pointed fast-moving wings
while the toys appeared to be quite harmless on the surface they were actually rather hazardous
anyone who's ever played with the toy understands what it's like to be hit in the face by one of
these rogue flying fairies these toys are not only dangerous but they also have an odd quality about
them each sky dancer seems more terrifying than the next with their huge blue eyes and sinister
smiles i thought she was so pretty we're not exactly sure what the allure was to these toys
other than launching them into the air just to have to pick them up off the ground again
however they were somewhat useful in keeping your kids distracted for a while and burning
off some of that excess energy at the same time an inappropriate shaped jellyfish oh i accidentally
ordered some adult toys toys designed like private parts may be entertaining and funny for adults but
when it comes to children though this is not the case parents were taken aback when they saw this
phallic-shaped jellyfish and their children's finding nemo happy meals it's clear that this
device resembles a particular body part rather than a pleasant under the sea themed toy it's
not for kids many parents openly express their displeasure with the oddly shaped toy stating
that they did not want their children to play with such an obviously explicit looking object
was it really that hard to design a jellyfish toy that looked like a normal jellyfish whoever was
in charge of giving this toy the green light may have been completely oblivious but maybe mickey
d's needs a better quality assurance department so nothing like this happens again happy meal buckets
you can get a different one each week until halloween let's face it the toy really is the
best part of the mcdonald's happy meal so imagine the kids chagrin when they got a bucket instead
mcdonald's once served their happy meals in these vibrant halloween themed pails shaped
like ghosts pumpkins and witches rather than the conventional happy meal box that's it a happy meal
they first appeared for the 1986 halloween season but continued up until 2016 returning
each frightening season although it seemed to be a good concept children still expected to find a
toy to be included in the bucket which was not the case although the bucket was meant to be the toy
several people protested that it was too tiny for trick-or-treating the buckets evolved and changed
over time but they never managed to overcome one key obstacle a bucket is not a toy some buckets on
the other hand attempted to liven things up the ghost in the 1990 edition and the cookie cutter
lids in the 1992 editions both glowed in the dark they were a little creepy and fun for kids to use
but at the end of the day children don't want to play with a spooky ghost bucket although maybe the
bucket could be used to keep all your other happy meal toys in gold painted little mermaid toys
can you do that mcdonald's has had a lot of success collaborating with disney on happy meal
toys over the years but the gold-plated little mermaid dolls were an unmistakable disaster
mcdonald's happy meal figures are often of good quality with finely painted details and
often have moving parts these toys on the other hand were all painted in an unattractive imitation
gold were disproportionately big and lacked the charm that made the little mermaid such a smash
sensation these toys which were released in 1997 were clearly intended to be collected rather than
played with they were sprayed with an unidentified golden paint that covered ariel's delicate facial
features and gave scuttle the appearance of a bird caught in a bad oil spill very boring even
more perplexing ursula was the only figure who was in an inflated doll rather than a genuine statue
she would be the only one who wasn't covered in paint all of this contrasts sharply with the 1989
version of happy meal toys from the little mermaid these were painted in vibrant life-like colors and
were designed to be used in the water making them a popular toy for the bathtub the gilded
figures on the other hand were too dismal to play with and were honestly quite creepy to look at
halloween mcnugget buddies now there are ten mcnugget buddy toys you can collect halloween
is a favorite holiday for many kids for obvious reasons they get to dress up as their favorite
characters get free candy and just have a blast roaming the streets at night with their friends
mcdonald's usually tries to include some form of happy meal item that is related to halloween when
the notorious holiday is just around the corner but on more than one occasion they have really
missed the mark at least these items are actually toys unlike some of the other products we've seen
the mcnugget buddies are collectible figures with well-painted faces and interchangeable clothing
although they weren't exactly the most exciting to play with they were more like something to show
off one's love of chicken mcnuggets the faces that each toy had were also straight out of a nightmare
the first incarnation of the mcnugget buddies were released in 1988 with a follow-up appearance
four years later these humanoid chicken mcnugget toys had varied faces and clothing
the costumes could be switched out giving the mcnugget buddies a mr potato head look and feel
the complete mcnugget buddy collection they were weird and plainly intended to promote a food
product but they were just clever and funny enough to become a reasonably popular toy in its day
however in 2019 mcdonald's re-released the vintage toy to commemorate the happy meal's
40th anniversary while the iconic mcnugget buddies had established themselves with
children in the 80s and 90s many children were unclear what to do with the halloween mcnugget
buddies when they made their comeback with a new generation of kids after a multiple decade delay
they were clearly targeting a previous generation of toy lovers while figurines like mcnuggela and
mcboo mcnugget were entertaining to unpack and interchange clothes with without the nostalgia
of the original mcnuggets buddies this item was quickly forgotten at the bottom of the toy box
ronald mcdonald sunglasses here's a magic sunglasses okay if you're afraid you put them on
they make you invisible as any fashionista knows the perfect pair of sunglasses can either make or
break an outfit dating back centuries the inuit once wore crude sunglasses made of walrus ivory
with holes in them which was useful for reducing snow blindness but not particularly appealing
sunglasses as we know them today were invented in the 20th century in 1929 sam foster sold the
first pairs of mass-produced sunglasses which immediately became a fashionable item on the
atlantic city beachfront leave it to mcdonald's to capitalize on something that has been around
as long as sunglasses while this may seem like a good toy to include for any kid who
wanted to look cool in their own pair of shades unfortunately the sunglasses design would fall
flat on almost every front ronald mcdonald was he a real guy these are not only unsightly but also
quite scary looking you couldn't play with these without poking yourself in the eye and whatever
fashion statement you made was humiliating the worst part was the simple carelessness of putting
a mcdonald's mascot on a basic accessory item with children expected to serve as walking talking
advertising for the corporation during the 1980s and 1990s when mcdonald land characters were the
epicenter of happy meal promotion this happened several times although mascots like grimace and
the fry guys weren't bad in and of themselves these kinds of toys were not the most popular
over the course of the happy meals history there were some fun mcdonald's character toys however
such as the race vehicles but this pair of ronald mcdonald sunglasses was not one of them
tickle feather sponge eco tickles the toy aspect of the happy meal was still in the early phase
when mcdonald's debuted the happy meal in 1979 a few stencils a spinning top a badly manufactured
eraser shaped like ronald mcdonald and a weirdly inappropriate sponge toy dubbed the tickle feather
sponge were what qualified as toys at the time while it didn't have the renowned mick in front
of the name maybe the feather should have been dubbed the mick tickle instead good point the
tickle feather sponge was a piece of foam whose sole purpose seemed to be to tickle your buddies
at random not the most exciting toy but still probably better than an eraser this wasn't the
only time a tickling feather appeared in a fast food meal burger king in israel introduced adult
meals with toys including a seductive feather in early 2017 to get ready for valentine's day at
the very least bk was forthright about what people would actually use it for madame alexander dolls
and it's a mcdonald's toy for real madame alexander is perhaps one of the most
well-known doll makers since 1923 when madame beatrice alexander and husband phillip berman
founded the madame alexander doll company it has been manufacturing beloved dolls for children
they started making hard plastic dolls in 1948 and madame alexander even won the fashion academy gold
medal four years in a row for costumes she designed for her dolls madame alexander put
you in there it's no surprise that the dolls she created in the 1950s are among the most
sought-after dolls in the world mcdonald's has occasionally included madame alexander dolls in
their happy meals over the years adult collectors lust after these frightening little dead-eyed
urchins but happy meals are for kids do children really desire a doll that resembles something from
their great-grandmother's curio cabinet every doll is frightening in its own way but one doll
from a 2010 campaign is pure nightmare fuel especially when viewed in its plastic wrapper
this tiny tike is apparently wendy dressed as the big bad wolf but it seems more like a small
girl attempting a frank of the rabbit costume from donnie darko only worse you wouldn't be surprised
if this doll escaped from the toy box and appeared on your pillow in the middle of the night watching
you sleep while brandishing a little knife and grinning evilly ronald mcdonald face mask ronald
mcdonald is now delivering smiles online there aren't many internationally recognized mascots
but ronald mcdonald is definitely one of them having served as the mcdonald's mascot since 1963.
it should come as no surprise that ronald mcdonald has appeared in other mcdonald's happy meal
offerings but some of them such as the face mask are scary and sloppy the mask has the potential
to cause nightmares in young children and as bad as that is the worst aspect about this toy is that
it is constructed of cheap cardboard it's hard to imagine seeing a group of little kids running
around with cheap cardboard clown masks and not being a little frightened sure this toy isn't
inherently hazardous however on the spooky scale it's definitely a level 10. that used to be fun
almost every child who received this ronald mcdonald mask in their happy meal were either
terrified or disappointed there's something about clowns even fast food clowns that some people
simply find terrifying and not at all entertaining this mask did not go down well with the kids
not only because of its spooky nature but also because by the time they put it on their faces
it was full of grease from the fast food meal it had been sitting with this was one of the
numerous underwhelming toys included in happy meals throughout the years imagine the reaction
of the parents who then had to deal with their children running around the house wearing what
amounts to a scary clown mask that smelled like french fries so if it wasn't the kids then it was
the parents who were less than happy about this creepy happy meal toy thanks for sticking right
