I've never been able to get a magnet to work on one of those plastic trays - Hamburglar is a true magician...!

[Conniptions886]

Yes - if only he'd used his powers for good instead of evil..

Bad Grimace walkaround costume with a zipper pull!

LOL, funny ad especially the sounds hamburglar makes, it sounds like hes manifesting.

Whatever happened to the rest of the Ronald gang?

Does this ad remind anyone else of Aunty Jack?

I grew up watching these characters, The Hamburgular, Grimace, The MacFry guys, Mayor MacCheese. They had these commecials like this one here in America too. All the Ronald MacDonalds look alike all over.

Those were the days when McDonalds sold their burgers in styrofoam packaging. You could open the lid and tip your fries into the lid and eat your burger and fries neatly out of the same container.

Ronald looks/sounds JUST like Andrew Hansen from The Chaser haha

@frankscan65 @coldacre @forgottenflavours - if it's early 80s, it's almost certainly Bartholomew John playing Ronald McDonald in this commercial.
