Actually, I guess we COULD all just decide to be mature and stop posting in this thread.

A corporation deliberately doing away with a successful marketing gimmick? This strikes me as great news. Sounds too good to be true, frankly.

Is any one here upset to see the old 'toys meals' go?
I never ate at any of those places, so no. Then again, I don't have any nostalgia about anything else, so I don't imagine I'd care even if I had eaten there.

I find the outcry over this absurd. You lot are reminding me of those people who whine about Rule 34 "raping their childhood".

Thank you Tongpu, that is precisely what I was feeling as well, but couldn't find the words to describe it :P

My family would just get a family chicken meal. Really, this barely affects me and I doubt it affects many others. Really, the toys included in the meals have been low quality or endorsed by Universal and the like to advertise their movies for ages. I'm not sad to see them go, because they've been crap for years.

I have to join the "They had toys?" crowd. In my defense, I never went to KFC and opportunities to do so were pretty limited since it only exists in Berlin. It seems that it never caught on enough to open branches in other cities and smaller towns, unlike other fast food chains.

But even if McDonalds, where I have been quite a number of times in my childhood, would do the same thing, I wouldn't care. I'm not a child and have no interest in these fast food toys anymore, so why should I?

I wouldn't mind if they did this in America. I'm sick of all those giant bikes with huge handlebars and bulky seats that block off three spaces at once in crowded bike racks.

They never travel alone.

Wait, KFC had toys...?

Jack in the Box quit giving out toys here in Hawaii, not long ago. It was usually arts and crafts type of stuff - little origami-type things that my four-year-old coudl never figure out, stuff like that.

I find the stuff McD's gives out to be cheap, but little kids are easily amused.
