Quote from: The Campaign for Commercial-Free ChildhoodIt's hard to believe, but McDonald's Happy Meal toys have hit a new low.Source: http://www.commercialfreechildhood.org/actions/mcdonaldsclobberintime.html
The fast food giant’s latest giveaway for preschool boys features eight Marvel comic action figures. One, The Human Torch, is a man engulfed in flames. Another, The Thing, menacingly roars “IT’S CLOBBERIN’ TIME!†at the press of a button.It's bad enough that McDonald's relentlessly uses junk toys to sell children on junk food. It's awful that this giveaway continues the troubling trend of fast food restaurants promoting toys linked to violent PG-13 movies. And it's terrible that McDonald's, the leading distributor of toys in the United States, relentlessly perpetuates the worst gendered stereotypes with its Happy Meal giveaways. During the current promotion, boys get violent action figures with their burgers and fries, while girls are offered cutesy animals that, bizarrely, come with hand bags.But now, for preschool boys, a so-called happy meal at McDonald’s features the horrifying spectacle of a man on fire and a menacing figure that explicitly spurs them to violence.
The fast food giant claims that "getting a toy is just one part of a fun, family experience at McDonald's."
If clobberin' time is McDonald's idea of family fun, it's time to steer clear of the Golden Arches.
These are the evil toys in question:

"McDonald's restaurants are found in 119 countries[11] and territories around the world and serve nearly 47 million customers each day. McDonald's operates over 31,000 restaurants worldwide, employing more than 1.5 million people"

I think the STUPIDEST organization would be one that thought "stupidest" was a real word. OOOH I went there I'm that guy.
But for real why are 3/8 of the Marvel toys dedicated to Fantastic 4 characters. Thor doesn't make the cut? I assume it's because he would be too hard to color.

They're worried about the violent toys, but not the health problems their kids are going to be faced with from years of eating McDonalds crap? If they're so concerned with a commercial-free childhood they wouldn't be taking them to McDonalds in the first place.
