Foster's McDonalds Happy Meal Toys - Page 7 - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

My experience with McDonald's toys is that they are numbered (I've seen the numbers on the bag) and they start off with #1 and go sequentially up. They will not put out the next numbered toy unless 1) the week (or whatever the promotion periods run) is up or 2) they run out of toys. There was some series of toys my son wanted ("Cars" toys I believe) and they were so popular that the local McD's went through there entire lot of toys in less than 2 weeks. It kind of stinks that if you don't go to McD's almost daily, you can miss out on several of the toys. I got toy #1 and 3 days later when I went again they were already up to #4. I just wonder if they have a policy on how many you can buy without purchasing a Happy Meal, because I see a lot of McD toys on eBay and I think it sux that greedy SOB's deprive kids from getting toys the "right" way just so they can make money.

My experience with Burger King is that they get a whole batch of toys and put out whatever they grab. I have had BK employees digging through the kid's meals bags trying to find particular toys and, thankfully, they don't seem to mind. I even had a manager go to the back and rummage through the additional inventory. So, in my opinion, you have a better chance of getting a particular toy at BK than McD's.

Oh, and I guess since this is a forum on Foster's and not fast food toys; Bloo, Mac, Wilt, Eduardo, Frankie, Madame Foster, Mr. Herriman, Goo, Old Man Rivers. Yeah, that should be enough Foster's characters to make Sparky happy.

I tried to get a Foster's toy at McD's today and all they had was Jake. Now listen, I am having some luck losing weight and I'd prefer to not even go anywhere near a McDonald's right now...Can I ask for (a) volunteer(s) to round me up two each of the Bloo and Wilt toys and send them to me? I'll pay whatever they cost plus shipping.

I'll look tomorrow but I doubt I'll have much luck. And yeah, don't go anywhere near McDonalds if you're losing weight. Even the air in there is loaded with saturated fat.

I asked the manager of the local McDonalds about the Foster's toys earlier today. She told me that they're out of the blue ghost and the tall red girl figures and won't be getting any more.

I'm guessing she's not a fan.

Tall red girl figures?

I find that hilarious!

What I don't get is just how, exactly, is Wilt feminine?!

HOLY-! XDDDD

If they hear that "tall red girl figure" talk, just once, the manager will change her mind! XD

"Erm....that's not how a girl's voice is supposed to sound like..."

It may be the "go-go boots"...

Cassini90125 · 09-12-2007, 06:43 PM

That would be my guess; otherwise, I don't have a clue.
