    McDonaldLand in-store mascot costumes find.

    Here's a quick and dirty post about these.
    I plan to make up stands for these dudes and get way better pics in the next few days.

    These guys were sitting in a costume shop dead stock storage for several years, after being absorbed from yet another old school costume shops dead stock / repair shop storage.

    The foam "cheese" in both heads has deteriorated, but I can figure out a non-destructive way to replace it pretty easy.

    Posting on my lunch at work, so more info and better pics to follow.

    Behold!
    Mayor McCheese and Big Mac!

      That is super cool!
      You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                  These things have, and require, metal/leather harnesses to keep them from just destroying your neck and back.

                  I put on the Big Mac head and kept thinking I was gonna fall over and bust the head.

                  They'll see some action for sure, but damn are they not a "I'll just toss this on" scenario.

                    So friggin' cool. What a great find. You need to put these on and just start taking tons of selfies in fun places: on the bus, at a sporting event, in the library, at church. Go nuts, man. Go nuts.

                      Just stand in front of your local McDonalds wearing Mayor McCheese and see what happends?

                      1. They will hire you for the publicity
                      2. You'll be nominated for mayor of your town
                      3. You'll get arrested
                      4. You'll get shot at (depending on what part of town your in?)

                        Hah! Google Flint, Mi and see how ironic/accurate those bullet points are.
                        It's a tad eerie.

                            You gotta bring out the Mayor costume every Election Day.
