We spent 500 on old Happy Meal toys? Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. If you needed any further proof that this show has been overtaken by nostalgic millennials, look no further than today where we spent $500 on old Happy Meal toys. Seriously? Did y’all get a hold of the credit card again? I think we gave it to them as part of their job. We only have one credit card. Y’all better hope people watch this episode. It’s time for Shiny Happy Plastic Opening Fast Food Toys of the Yore Okay, boys We bought a ton of Happy Meal toys from McDonald’s and even a few from Burger King and put out a survey to the Mythical Beasties and our very own crew to determine an official ranking of the most coveted toys nostalgic for Millennials, okay Uh, you’re gonna both, every single round, choose two Happy Meal boxes. And once you’ve opened them, you can decide if you want to make any trades. But you gotta agree that you’re gonna make a trade. The more coveted the toy is, the more points it’s worth. So choose and trade wisely. And before you can start blindly picking boxes, we gotta find a way to determine who goes first. What about pulling these fries out of this, um I think that’ll work. So, whoever gets the shorter fry gets the power of choice. Because you wanna go shorter gets the power of choice? Yeah. You wanna reverse expectations? Yeah. What about the way our culture thinks about people with longer fries should have more power? Uh, yeah, I think that’s, uh, we should– Nope, you’re right, you’re right, that’s great, that’s great. I get the power of choice. Okay, here’s a little preview of what’s up for grabs this round. Ooh. Furby figurines what? Pokemon Gold cards. Pokemon . . It does it like it’s encapsulated in some sort of a sphere, but I guess that’s the, the Pokeball Espin held hands , ESPN hand. I’m just being stupid. So each one has his own game. Yeah. And as you unbox, I will tell you a little bit more about each one, but before you do. Which one are you hoping for? The handheld games. Personally or the one that I think that the people want? Personally. This is just for funsies. I don’t want no Furby. I’d be all about Nugget Buddies. I want Nugget Buddies too. I’m gonna take the one that is the closest to you first! Ha ha ha ha! Fine, well I’ll take the one that’s over here. I’ll take the other one that’s closest to me! I’ll take this one. Alright. Okay, let’s unbox one by one. So I can tell you a little something about it. Ha ha ha! Yes! I got the gold ones! The Pokemon Gold Cards are from 1999, and these were considered a Burger King premium item, meaning that parents who wanted to secure them for their kids needed to pony up an extra 1. 99. Only two more dollars. And it’s got a, it’s got a– It’s real! The authenticity thing. Yeah, who else do you think has been grabbing onto that with their mouth? Can I open one? Yeah! Please do. Only thing that’s gonna make him upset is if I get Nugget Buddies! You did it! Ha ha ha ha! I got– You got the Espen. These ESPN handheld electronic games are from 2004, and our very own Tally chose them because she said she owned the purple soccer one as a kid, noting Quote, I was quite obsessed with it as a kid. It was probably the first handheld video game I ever owned, which was pretty cool. Oh! Uh, of course these don’t work. The only thing that would make you not happy is if I had Nugget Buddies, because that would mean that you had them. Right. What I didn’t just say. But, you know what? I’ve got the Nugget Buddies. No! Nugget Buddies! The Nugget Buddies first appeared in 1988, but had new sets in 92, 94, 96, 2019, and 20 23. So they’re like Mr. Potato Heads. Yeah, and Mythical beast Shari, who chose the Nugget Buddies in her survey, said I have one in my grandkids fight over who gets to play it. That means you got Furbies. Alright, we know what it is. Oh, they’re pretty big. They’re big and detailed. These Furby figurines are from 1998. There were five different series, each including ten different Furbies. One survey responder, Rachel, said that she picked these because it’s a Furby. It’s the coolest toy one could own back then. This one has a wheel, and it makes the, the ears go up and down, so it still works! This one does not, this one, oh, this one, you push it, and the eyes flutter. And this one, you put the hat, you push the hat, and it, it, it plays a saxophone? Okay, I know I’m not gonna part with the gold cards. I know that you know that this is bad, and I know that this is bad. The question is should we trade Nugget Buddies for Furbies? Nope. Not that I’ve seen these things in action. Hold on, look, have you seen the Nugget Buddies in action? Look, look, look, look. Listen, I will give you. You can’t split em. Everything we’ve got if you give me the Pokemon balls. I will not do this. Alright, let’s bring out those fries, boys. Okay. Still shortest guy? I’m going with the shorty. You go first. Oh, that one’s dropping. Maybe I want it. That’s pretty short. That’s pretty short. I wonder how short this one is. Okay, you go first. Barely got it. Here we go. I’m gonna take– Oh, wait, wait. Before you actually pick, I wanna show you what you could get. And I want you to tell me what you want. McDino Changeables? McDino? McDino. Mendocino. Lego Classics. Uh That’s cool. Neopets Plushies. And Teenie Babies. I want I’m choosing the Legos for myself, personally. That’s what I want for myself! Great. I like it when you both want the same thing for yourself. But the Teenie Babies seem pretty valuable to the Mythical Viewing. Yes. If I could write my own script, I would give myself the Lego classics and the Teenie Babies. And if you were going first, which box would you choose? The one right in front of you. Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha! I’m choosing it! Ha ha ha! Okay, well, then, I’ll choose the other one in front of you. Good. I didn’t want that one. But I do want this one. And I’m gonna go first. What did I get? Oh, my goodness. I don’t I want these. Ew, they look pretty soiled. Neopets. Neopet toys are from 2004. Not washed. Mythical Beast Macy, who chose this in our survey, said, I used to have a ton of the Neopets when I was younger and this brought back so many memories, I’d do anything to have one again and heal that part of my inner child. Shout out to Neopets. Yes, they were my childhood. Well, gee, I mean, should we send these? If this is gonna heal a person. Yeah, we’ll send you. I feel like we need to mail it to you. We’ll send you one. No, well, we can’t commit to doing that. We might send you one. Okay. This has got a band aid on its head. Let’s see what I got. And some stains on the back, which are pleasant. Oh, I got the Beanie Babies. Ah! There’s so many of them! Oh my goodness! The Teenie Babies. And they’re all sealed. were sold in McDonald’s from 1997 to 2000. At the peak of their popularity in 1998, these toys were the cause of fights, including police calls, criminal charges, and injuries. There’s so many! These might be worth a lot of money! Why are you opening them up?! Because they’re not anymore, they’re Beanie Babies. Maybe, I, I mean they kind of are. Here’s an ostrich? Iggy the iguana, and I’m just gonna tell you, the, the production value on these things is just as good as a full size Beanie Baby, as far as I can tell. Very Beanie. Very Baby. Very Baby. Come on Lego Classics, I’m reaching in and I’m feeling, I’m feeling McDino. Well, it’s like I said, if I could write myself a script, I would have read the Legos. Ah! And the Teenie Babies. Give me a minute here. Oh, okay, take all the time you need. The McDino Changeables are from 1991. Uh, Mythical Beasts Jr., who chose this in our survey, said, Um, bro, it’s a McDonald’s dinosaur. That’s like two of the coolest things ever. McNuggets, but it’s a T Rex, bro! Wow. Yeah. Hotcakes become this. Hold on, these are actually cool. They’re Transformer like. They’re Transformer like. I think you popped the top. I think it’s got. Don’t hurt yourself. I think it’s got fry grease in it or something. But these are the old school chicken nugget. Oh, the styrofoam nuggets. That’s made out of styrofoam. Oh, the days of styrofoam. I think I’m starting to make you jealous. The Lego Classics. That is cooler for sure than the Lego Classics. Are from 1999. Survey responder Natalie said she chose this one because she remembers playing with these as a kid. They’re very cool. Figured out. Figured this out. Your mood seems to have really shifted because a moment ago you wrote your own script. I’m so happy for myself. The question is, do I need to trade? You know, I want to make this interesting. I’m not getting rid of the Beanie Babies. Beanie Babies are too in demand. I will trade. You don’t want these for the Legos, do you? Not a chance. I don’t know if I want to get rid of the Legos for those Transformers, but I think the Transformers are really cool. You know what? This is what I said I wanted. Oh, you don’t want to trade the Legos for that? I’ll trade the Legos for this. You can have them. I can’t figure out how to do this. I haven’t committed to it yet. What? I know you want them. I just want to make you happy. Until I take my hand off Lego. Your script shifted and you weren’t happy. This might be one of the biggest things! I don’t really I’m just doing it for you. I’m not doing it for Me. So, these are cool. I’ll trade. Will it make you happy? Alright, there you go. Take your hand off. There you go. Hey, Survive the Mythical Kitchen’s coming up quick, y’all.

Okay, I really hope this is Tamagotchi. I really hope it is. I really hope that it is. It is. Whoa, how is this happening? I hate it. The Tamagotchi keychains are from 1998 and were the source of many parents frustrations when their children didn’t realize they were different from the digital Tamagotchi pets sold in stores. Leah said, the Tamagotchi keychain was my favorite. Solely because my parents never would buy me the real deal. Brings back a lot of nostalgic memories. Look, it just has A pet that does very rudimentary motions inside of it. Yeah, it’s not mechanical. But it only fits in there in one way and I can’t get it back. Oh. Did you take him out?
