I've never seen these in my life! Have you?

I won the auction, so will be sure to take better pics and describe any markings once I get them. But I've never heard of McD's having RB figures in their happy meals before! How did we miss this?

that's crazy! 2006, I'm sure I would have noticed them. Must have been in a small town or something, theres no way all the chain Mc D's had them. I would have gotten them.
You know at that time you could buy the toys alone for $1 a piece to get the whole collection right away. Use to do it for my son, know they want $2 for a toy, might as well buy the meal for $2.99

Interesting win!

Yeah, Jazzy I love how you can do that with nearly any fast food place. It helps if it's something you wanna collect :) I remember once going to Dairy Queen to get some of their Digimon toys. That was years ago. I'd buy a drink for a treat (I was going to tutor) and then ask to buy a couple of the toys. Wasn't long before I had them all.

That's crazy! Mcd's is my favorite place to go, and I never saw these. If I had I definitely would have gotten all of them. Its a great find though :)

I think these were from somewhere outside the US.

The seller is in Puerto Rico -- I wonder if this promotion was for that location, only? Too bad...I would have loved a Starlite keychain.

I didn't even notice that they were in Puerto Rico! My bad...lol. Yes, it must've been something specific to that area. That stinks that we didn't get them here!
