McDonald's Bambi Happy Meal (1988)

[xanfus]

man, i remember this commercial AND these toys! me and my cousin incorporated them (and other mcdonald's toys like muppet babies) with ninja turtles and gi joe. they all got along cause the bad guys were the unseen iraqi's! we were kids during the gulf war. my cousin had a giant crayon and he would say skud missle attack, skud missle attack and all the toys would have to get the fudge out of there! man... good times, for us anyway.

[MsDisneyObsessed]

McDonald's had Bambi toys?

[zyber9]

@MsDisneyObsessed Yes McDonald's had Bambi toys in 1988!

[MsDisneyObsessed]

@zyber9 Wow that's so cool! I wish I got a Bambi toy :( Although I wasn't alive in 1988 xD

[TJCWilliams93]

I remember having Bambi; I didn't know it was from McDonald's until I saw this. xD

[AslansButterfly]

That's so adorable....I never knew McDonald's ever had Bambi toys!!

[layallyourloveonme1]

They need to bring Grimace back...I miss him showing up in the commercials even though I never knew exactly what he was :)

[wolf25ph]

I had Thumper, Bambi and Flower when these came out. I lost or threw away flower and Thumper by the time I got to middle school, but I still have Bambi somewhere.

[thajuice87]

I had thumper and the skunk. I remember when I had lost the skunk I wanted to slit my wrist. I thought life was not worth living since I had lost him. I was only about 6 or 7. Till this day, I never knew what happened to it. I'm still kinda pissed about it and I'm a 28 year old man. Maybe Ebay has some of theses toys.

[gordogreat74]

@thajuice87 If you want to find the skunk, his name was Flower. =:)

[PhantomStella]

I only had Bambi. :)

[EmmanuelleLunada2010]

I want these toys!! :)

[DuplicatedOnce]

I liked the part when they talked about bambi

[ScentedMarkers44]

I still have my Bambi and my Flower toys!

[Xxsharpshooter007xX]

i wish we still had commercials like this now there is no promotion for eating shitty food

[zyber9]

@Xxsharpshooter007xX Now they only on the Happy Meal commercials they only show Mcnuggets, apple slices, and plain white milk!

[TheVaultBoy87]

Boy,I wish I was born back then when there were actual TOYS and not the lousy garbage they hand out today and when the commercials where actually entertaining :'(

[sonicthehedghg2]

I wish I was born when this aired I would still be playing with the soft toy

[blazette]

I had all of those except the owl.

[jokermausland]

@TheNermaty: Totally agree. I'm older now so I haven't bought a happy meal since I was 10 but I have seen the stuff they sell today for kids and they look like the stuff you could get for 50 cents out of a gum-ball machine.

[WorkSucksChannel]

man I remember this

[slave2moonlight]

Those were the first really good Happy Meal toys that got me really into collecting them, though now I have a ton of Happy Meal toys I want to get rid of, ha. But a few I might keep, like MAYBE these four.

[yoonvh]

I HAD THE SKUNK!!! :D

[GhettoBlaster100]

It's usually not a good idea to wear deer antlers in a hunting zone...

[TheNermaty]

i remember when mcdonalds had toys WORTH buying!

thumbs up if u agree.

[MrBillshit]

McDonald's fies is realy bad for you and it is bull shit the way you have to feed them to your kids. go to on youtube McDonalds Food - The Truth on youtube.com

[paintballmon135]

@MrBillshit "they way you have to"? you dont HAVE to do anything, its your fucking choice to feed your kids that shit, don't blame it on McDonald's

[BMXfan9797]

Why is Ronald Mcdonald calling a deer "Grimace?"

[WumWip]

Back when the toys weren't poisoned by the paint used in the factories in china.

Also, I had all of them BUT Bambi... I think I still got them too...

[Akutare]

I only had Bambi. That toy. I may still have it.

[EllisonLindsay]

WHY DID I NOT GET THESES AS A KID!

[saurfan]

seriously does mcdonalds have there toys made for them or do thay make the toys?

[Elliandr]

Because meat is EXACTLY what a child wants and/or emotionally needs when mourning a dead animal. *rolls eyes*

[Anonyfication]

I wish they made commercials like this again.

[XxXAnnaAnestheticXxX]

i had the skunk flower and the owl, i think bambi too.. but i dont have them anymore, my parens threw away a lot of my old stuff or gave it away the last time we moved...

[Pwnzistor]

@XxXAnnaAnestheticXxX I just sold my bambi on e-bay.. $150, not bad.

[BMassey1987]

Posable Bambi and friends, collect them all! Bambi, the young hero, Thumper, the wild rabbit, and Bambi's mom, complete with buckshot and bullet wound!

[april76301]

all 80s and 90s commercials make me vomit im 13 born on 8 31 of 1997 the sdame moment and day princess diana died and year but i watch things like this on youtube and its just annoying

[muffinwifblueberries]

What happened to McDonald's commercials. The jokes this one was lame, but it's better than the ones we have now. :(

[DazzieMetallikat]

@MrRand94

Bambi is a boy. It says that ten billion times in the movie.

[Triad3Force]

I had all those too. Wow my parents must have fed us a lot of happy meals. hehe

[socalgoldengal]

i remember when mcdonalds used to give out m&ms for the kids.. yum =)

[RayRoark2009]

@socalgoldengal I do to lol.

[DROW42]

it always bugged me that too few advertises look at the movies before cuming up with there promotion ideas.

Bambi was a sad movie and somehow Bambi toys just seem wrong, Disney never should have singed off on this and they know they didn't have to.

also Ghidorahfan Mcdonalds would never sever venison, the only game meat they serve is the occasional alley cat.

[Omboth]

@DROW42 I don't think Bambi was a sad movie... No more sad than the Lion King.

[DazzieMetallikat]

@Omboth

I think it was sad, the Lion King was a lot funnier..I cried a lot more watching Bambi when I was little. lol 

[Johnlindsey289]

@Omboth

Grave of the Fireflies is the saddest animated movie you'll ever see

[stupidflounders]

I still have my Bambi toy from this meal!!!!!!!!!!

[johnclones]

I love Ronald McDonald and Grimace! Laura Ingram says that Barny is a copy of Grimace and Ronald Mcdonald needs to be retired. Nonsence! Laura Ingram along wiht her buddies Glen Beck, don Imus and Michael Savage ought to retire! And I am a conservative. They are al too controversial. they are just Rush Limbaugh want to bes! I like Bill O' Reilly and Rush. Most of the others are pale in comparison. Rush is the real thing!

Long Live Rtonald and Grimace!

[Qhoove]

holy crap... i just realized i have that exact bambi toy...

[titanicpiano14]

Check out my strings rendition of Love is a Song!!

[SplatUr789z]

Okay, that Bambi toy strangely looks familiar!

[PETETHEMEAT42]

[Pandaiscool2]

[RobotwarsKing]

"It's raining in the forest!"

[DrPepper121289]

Probably 1988 when the movie was re-released to theaters or 1989 when the video came out.

[sunflower2362]

[pcdawg0321]

[lightiskira90]

lol

[laconchetuputamadre]

Man, i missed the joke at 0:15

[Aboutspaul21]

I used to have Bambi, Thumper, Flower and Friend Owl when I was little.

[Noyjeetut]

These are high quality toys. They look just like their characters and are made of a heavier style plastic. This week I got Flower (25 cents at a thrift store) to finish the collection I started as a kid. :D

[FlareonJupiter]

I remember those Bambi toys -- they came out when the movie was re-released in theaters in Summer 1988.

Flower was my favorite character... and he still is.

[Johnlindsey289]

@FlareonJupiter

Did you see the re-issue of this movie in theaters as a kid? Did you also see Fox and The Hound re-issue, Roger Rabbit and Oliver and Company that year?

[barukisou]

When I was about 4 my bestfriend gave me the Thumper one as a moving away present. I never really wondered where it came from, but it's interesting to know...

Well... it's not really....

[permanentlylink]

I remember this

[rainbowskulls]

DUDE I have the damn bambi doll D:

[kbStawr]

i use to have those toys!

[Larukugurl]

I remember those! I used to have Bambi and Thumper.

[DimeraFan28]

Wow. I Remember I Used To Have Two Of Them. And They're, Thumper and Flower. I'll Bet Those And Others Are Proberly A Collectors Item Now.

[sonicsuks]

All I throught was wat if the kids reenacted bambies mum getting shot lol

[Cuccogirl]

huhuh.

I have the Thumper one. Because I found it somewhere >>

[nickagneta]

Awesome. I remember having Thumper as a kid.

[canitbebluetrue]

I want one of Bambi's mum, so she can die tragically and break my heart again :(

[Horsiegirl51]

Those are so cute im serios i &hearts; Bambie!

[demonicLEMONS]

i miss the old commercials they used to be cool ^^. i miss the old cahracters. now ronald just hangs out with little kids like sum pedifile

[Teresa01]

Back when the toys were good. they're so tacky now. when they did shrek 2 toys they charged an extra 99p for them O_O

[SexyStarlet23]

I've got all the toys.  I have more then one of some of them as well.

[carlitosbug]

This commercial is from 1988 to promote the reissue of Bambi.

[tomboytayuya]

They used to have bambi toys.WOW!

[LolWoot]

I have Bambi! He was my favourite. :)

[JEH78]

Soft? These things were hard plastic. I remember how it was so hard to get Bambi. My grandmother collected them too and when we moved her out of her old house she still had all of the Bambi toys in the packages along with so many other Happy Meal toys.

[drakkis]

Hey i have that owl toy. I have always wondered where we got it XD

[stjxp]

I had all of them...and they weren't soft.

"Rain, rain go away!" lol

[tjthump]

I had bambi, flower, and Thumper.

[sara2618]

I was thinking the same thing! I was born in 1988!!! Aww I loved the bambi toys!!! ;D

[sara2618]

Just curious...when was this commercial from? Do you know? And I have the Bambi toy!!! ;D

[stackablecows]

Must be 1988 because I got Owl when my family went to Disneyland and I was 5 then. I remember it because Happy Meals were a little different in Canada until the early 90's.

[virgolibraariesmoon]

I had Bambi and Thumper and Flower...McDonald's used to have the best happy meal toys.

[cruxbucket]

i have thumper
