Check out this article about the Mario Brothers 3 promotion, super entertaining!

Come on, who remembers having a bunch of these toys? These things were the bomb!

That's some epic Nintendo nostalgia in those promos. So rad.

I personally have the Goomba and the Luigi in my collection. Ladies, line up!

does he have to?

he already gave us these fantastic threads:

"5 dopes things from your room" (spoiler, toys)
"Toys R Us bankrupt"
"Anyone remember these toys"

and my personal favorite:

"Check out this guys collection of rare packets of sealed Kool-Aid"

how hard do you expect him to try?? pressuring kids can have horrible outcomes. don't pressure our resident forever-kid, please, think of his parents and what they will have to deal with.

They released several Mario lines over the years. The most recent ones are much better made than what fuzz posted.

I had the SMB3 Goomba. He did back flips.

smashingjj · 06-10-2018, 04:36 PM

get a free Dead Child (tm) with any happy meal (c)!

FlamingGlobes · 06-10-2018, 04:36 PM

Mario looks incredibly uncomfortable with his predicament.

smashingjj · 06-10-2018, 04:37 PM

man i had them all just except that one dead hairy Indian child, you know? I ate happy meals till I dropped but I just couldn't get the right one

FlamingGlobes · 06-10-2018, 04:37 PM

Also impressed that DinoDrac kept his food from back then ass well. That's commitment.

FlamingGlobes · 06-10-2018, 04:37 PM

Ass well

FlamingGlobes · 06-10-2018, 04:38 PM

All swell that ends swell

smashingjj · 06-10-2018, 04:46 PM

but that smell

vixnix · 06-10-2018, 06:21 PM

We had a mega drive so we were a Sonic household, don’t know if they ever had Sonic happy meals but I think probably not.

LaBelle · 06-10-2018, 06:23 PM

vixnix · 06-10-2018, 06:31 PM

Ha! That tails toy looks alright, but the others look like shitty roll-around duds.

FlamingGlobes · 06-10-2018, 06:46 PM

I was a Sega/Sonic kid too. We even had a Sega Saturn when everyone else on the planet had PS1/N64.

Kind of explains why I turned out the way I did.

While you're right, and those are cool toys, they didn't have nearly as much of an impact as this promo did.

In 1990, Mario Brothers toys were surprisingly far and few between. Nintendo for some reason didn't really capitalize on that market. Before the happy meal, Nintendo released toys like this

So for Nintendo obsessed kids to get cool Mario toys like those was a big deal!

Ahhh, a simpler time indeed!
