    The remold is pretty cool. Not only does it clearly help distinguish between the original and the new one on the secondary market, but more importantly it represents a completely different McDonald’s hamburger. The original is a quarter pounder with cheese and the new one is just the standard hamburger.

    The Quarter Pounder is delicious. Their cheeseburgers are boring and junk.

    I need them sesame seeds. My figure will dry out.

    One of the toys I got was Grimmace. My kids were basically saying wtf is that?! My son said he didn’t want it until I told him it would be a good target for his nerf guns. :p

    Just did a little research...
    I guess it's a worldwide promotion by McDonald's.

    I'm still puzzled what is #9 why it was pulled out.

    But I'm disappointed that it'll be given out as a Suprise Blind Bag.
    I just want that Transforming Cheeseburger

    So, on the topic of Changeables: where might be the best place to try and find one new? eBay, right?

    Most likely if Mcdonald's in your area don't have it. I've seen a few reasonable buy it nows with free shipping, but you do need to be quick on the draw since they sell quickly.

    Tried one last time today at a different McD and got two Hello Kitty toys from 2017...which I guess is kinda retro? :lol  Seems weird they still had toys sitting around from that long ago.

    Oh well, off to eBay for my hamburger robot and no more McDonalds for the rest of the year.
