The Governor Furloughed me today BUT....

It was a beautiful Spring day so I took my car in for service. On the way home I turned into a subdivision to avoid the morning traffic jamb at the High School. There I found a Moving sale and something that made my day!

Here is a hint!

This was on the back of the Box.

McDonaldland

The Playset for the McDonaldland Characters….

Welcome to the fun and excitement of McDonaldland. There’s so much to do. The gathering place for Ronald McDonald and all the McDonaldland characters. Take a ride on the colorful wind up train featuring a Locomotive, Passenger Car and Paddy Wagon, also seven pieces of track and a Stop-n-Go Signal Switch. Play with the swing on the enchanting Apple Pie Tree. Cross the Filet-O-Fish lake via the Golden Arches Bridge. Put Ronald on Stilts for real clown fun. Serve a tray with McDonald’s Hamburger and Drink at the famous McDonald’s Family Restaurant. All this on a28 ½” x 30” Playland surface enhanced by an 11” colorful backdrop. Words for the “McFavorite Clown” song are printed on the play surface. Special McDonald’s Letterhead Stationery included for personal messages. All plastic parts molded of strong, safe, non-toxic materials. Surely THE fun place to be.

I've always wanted to pick one of those up. Nice score. Great looking box, too.

My little cousin had a playset, but it had the little blockhead people.

[B-Lister]

Awesome.

I've thought about buying the Huckleberry Toys figures of the McDonaldland characters at some point. I wouldn't even call them reissues, as they have removed the action feature, and some of the accessories from the original Remco versions.

and left out a key character in the Professor.

yeah, nobody knows who the Professor is TODAY, but the same could be said of Captain Crook.

Captain Crook I believe is his name. How come I can't find awesome yard sales like that? Oh yeah, I live in BFE.
