Product Information

Grimace getting fan art in June wasn’t on my bingo card for the year, but McDonald’s has been striking a cord with its Happy Meal toys for the last couple of years, so I probably shouldn’t be surprised. In 2021, Pokémon Happy Meal toys became a hot commodity, ending up on the resale market. Last October, the company released a series of Happy Meal toys in collaboration with Cactus Plant Flea Market — pretty clearly aimed at adults — that also became highly sought-after on the resale market.

What flavor is a purple, triangular, googly-eyed monster, who might actually be a taste bud? Turns out he’s “berry” flavored. One reporter compared the taste of the shake to cereal-milk.

Together they were powerful forces, though Grimmis was looked down upon by his brother. Due to his lesser state of power and fortune, with Esquire having a more vital aspect, Grimmis sought to be a harvester of souls to imbue him with strength, and become a more pivotal aspect.

The namesake for McDonaldLand is the McDonald's restaurants founded by Richard and Maurice McDonald, popularized by Ray Kroc. Ronald McDonald was originally portrayed by Willard Scott, a former Bozo the Clown actor. In 1963, he and Washington, D.C. franchisee Oscar Goldstein created the initial aspects of the character. The initial idea to expand the McDonaldland universe was outsourced to Needham, Harper & Steers in 1970–71 at the request of McDonald's for its restaurants. The first commercial aired in January 1971. The early commercials were built on an upbeat, bubblegum-style tune and feature a narrator; many have plots that involve various villains, like the Hamburglar, Evil Grimace, and Captain Crook trying to steal a corresponding food item but are constantly foiled by Ronald. [6] Grimmis is an Aspect of Death entitling Sacrifice, and is the brother of Esquire, the Aspect of Death entitling Nothingness. Grimmis was in life, one of Death's lesser aspects that worked to claim souls who have transpired to Death's dimension. He wished to attain greater power and become a more powerful Aspect, and sought any opportunity he could to do so. Prof, Your Favorite (March 12, 2021). "Shake It Up!".

McDonaldland is a McDonald's media franchise and the fictional fantasy world inhabited by Ronald McDonald and his friends. Starting with the creation of Ronald McDonald in 1963, it is primarily developed and published by McDonald's. Initial attempts to expand the McDonaldland universe by marketing agency Needham, Harper & Steers were seemingly retconned due to legal issues, but ongoing aspects were expanded in McDonald's projects in collaboration with Data East, Virgin Interactive, Treasure, SEGA, and Klasky Csupo. McDonaldland takes place predominantly in its own high fantasy world, however parts of the McDonaldland world have low fantasy interactions with the real world. In earlier commercials, McDonaldland had sentient trees that grew apple pies, a hamburger patch, a French Fry patch, a shake volcano, Filet-O-Fish Lake, and the one-shot Sundae Mountain. Grimmis wore the usual Aspect armor, but transformed it into a knight sort of theme. He was fantasized by the knights in the Three Wars of Outhria between the Brotherhood and Confederacy. He wields a one handed sword which he drops in his encounter. First Coffee Shops, Then Fast Food, Now Beloved Regional Stores: Nowhere Is Safe From a Dreaded Design TrendOne day, during the Battle of Glaecings, Grimmis looked upon the distraught and destroyed state of Deathlius Loss'end, and proclaimed that his time is come to give Death his soul. Whilst in the middle of doing so, Deathlius refused to yield to the Aspect, and killed him where he stood. Because of this, Deathlius lives, but his soul is forever torn by Grimmis' magic. Death didn't take this too kindly, seeing as Deathlius killed one of his "sons", he made Deathlius' weapon into a harvester to reclaim the souls lost by Grimmis. Later on though, Deathlius would rid himself of being Death's pawn.
