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 a new one on me...

2006??? That was after Gen 3 ended. Very interesting.

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!

Puerto Rico is lucky :) I wish we could have gotten those toys here
