    McDonald's R2D2 Happy Meal

    Even though I think McD serves absolutely crap food (four inch monster burger on the photo, but what you get is one inch of squashed muck), the new R2 premium is quite good:
    McDONALD'S BELGIË

    Ideal for Mego scale. You can position it, and it has a hologram projector.
    Don't forget to have a good look at the red light projector, and then read the instructions saying "do not under any circumstance look into the light".
    Thank for the permanent blindness, guys!
    Kids will love it!

    Anyway, if you need a Mego R2, this will certainly do.

      I'm interested, wish they had this stuff here in the states. It'd be worth the trip to the bathroom after a visit to McDonald's!

It shall be life."

        Yeah, I saw your friend passing by. Wearing black glasses and screaming "my eyes! My eyes!", right?

        Seriously. I wish they'd included a C3PO instead of those dumb mini light sabers!

          The Yoda has one of those "eightball" functions, giving you "answers" to your questions.
          Like: "To bathroom you will go tonight, repeatedly."

                Couldn't find a really good picture of one, but "in the flesh" it looks quite good.
                It just goes to show, they really can make a good toy for very little money....

                    Please tell him my stomach refuses to let the burger I ate in.
                    It's still "on hold"....
                    But great droid!

                    Perhaps I should start eating the toy instead?

                        Absolutely interested in the R2D2. Maybe the Yoda as well! Thanks, Toystalker!

                              ok got the r2 out for the lads and lasses - sorry for blurry pics

                              its a nice bit of kit fair play

                              very nice in detail and yes a great gift thats free... apart from the cost of the meal lol

                              ok here some snaps













                              dont be fooled into thinking that it projects a small image! the darker the room the bigger and better the image, the image your looking at seems small in the pic, its the size of a dinner plate or 12" record and when i moved back it probably doubled that size, awsome
                              the images are, vader, r2, 3po, wicket, chewie, leia, bobba, pretty cool eh

                              some pics of another cool r2d2... the one that came to my open day at my store, oh and kitt came aswel
                              thats mum/mom with r2 proud moment






                              yes r2 wee'd on the floor... he squirted water over all the kids
