My Jack Skellington Pumpkin King Halloween costume 2018
I was well over 7 feet tall on the stilts. I tested it out walking around the mall and hundreds of people stopped me for a photo. I managed to trick or treat in the costume too

"Chicken" meat. You missed the quotation marks

Esoteric Collector @vcreedsabretooth.bsky.social · 13h

Those would be the chicken sticks I suppose. I only go into Burger King once or twice every 4-6 years

The "toy" was a generic paper "go fish" game. Where were these?!?!

Am I keeping my son's Burger King Halloween Bucket and crown? Heck yes I am.
Sadly they did not have the Scooby Doo toys as advertised

I suppose the D&D Crabman was similar early on.
They were sold in cardboard header bags like toy soldiers too under several names late 70s early 80s. The Screaming Yellow Zonkers versions are 1983

My grandma used to buy us Screaming Yellow Zonkers all the time, we dumped them out in a bowl to quickly find the space creatures. I still have some Space Creatures

It was like fiddlefaddle or crackerjacks without peanuts, just glazed yellow popcorn. It was great
