McDonald's Animatronics | An Introduction To

[@SourMickeys]

Ollie the Hamburger Tree is from the McDonald's that was located next to the old McDonald's corporate office in Oakbrook Illinois. This is one of my favorite things from when I was a kid and there is a video of some teens you can find online that shows when some of the burgers still moved. Ollie's mouth used to move to the lyrics that he sang (and his eyes went back and forth if I'm not mistaken) and the burgers were very smooth back when I was a kid in the 90's. I wish they would have fixed him up and kept him around for the younger generations. 30ish years later and I still very fondly remember our singing hamburger tree 💜

thats very wholesome for a very unknown animatronic, thanks for sharing 👍

I think Mac Tonight would have made a great cabaret character for Pizza Time Theater back in the day.

[@mokthemagicman]

There was also a talking McDonald that was in a large picture frame with plexiglass to protect him. It was a large plastic 3D relief map like picture of Ronald holding a burger and fries. Only his mouth moved like a ventriloquist dummy upon a push of a white button on the bottom of the frame. It only worked for a few years then removed. It was located in Del Mar, California near the Del Mar Fairgrounds.

The one in Orlando with Mac had all the mcdonald's characters animitronics downstairs. Around 2005 they removed them an only put Mac back upstairs

[@theonewithdoggo]

There were animatronics of the other McDonald land characters??

[@kaylabuchtel2668]

I actually have a very faint memory from back when I was... 6 maybe? of visiting a McDonald's somewhere in FL that had animatronics in one of the dinning areas. Glad to know that was an actual thing they did (however briefly) and not just my brain making up weird bull.

[@mightyfilm]

While I have never been to a McD's that would have had anything like that, when I was really little a local McD's that no longer exists had this place in the back for birthday parties. Didn't have much other than a large slide and a very small carousel (think something slightly bigger than one of those ones you'd find in a shopping center) with those cartoon burgers on it. There were all these murals with the McDonaldland characters. I do remember a lot of these McD's with their mascots on the walls somewhere, but the ones that still exist all got rid of them for that generic cafe look they all seem to have now. Not even those weird swivel chairs that were attached to tables that sometimes had the characters printed on them. The best decorations they even have now are Happy Meal promotional posters. Everything now looks so bland and brown and depressing.

[@Idiotic_B_Purcell]

That sounded beyond cool. Would've been amazing if they could've taken photos of the interior. The "Nonstandard McDonald's" Twitter keeps record of unusual and straight-up bizarre locations (including ones that were shut down/remodeled) and I find it most fascinating. And agreed completely on the "bland and brown and depressing" bit. They're trying to appeal only to the adults who hate everything "childish", rather than entire families, presumably due to the brand wanting their image changed and for kids to not taint it. Their McCafé menu also reflects in this in order to repel said kids since they all despise coffee. But the damage has already been done. No matter "how healthy" or "how ethical" they try to push their branding as, they'll always be associated with children of the present and future....

This channel is so underrated. I’m hoping you get the traction you deserve!!

[@ThatAnimatronicPerson]

I remember hearing about a mcdonalds somewhere that has a chuck e cheese animatronic that was re-outfitted into Ronald mcdonald. I have no idea if its true or not but thought i should share it anyways

[@emontrewaters3530]

They’ll be Very Cool

[@RickyRat-hk7yc]

Mac tonight has a lot of movements for a Mc Donald's animatronic

[@RemingtonRowland]

"it's definitely an option" was the most underrated the line this whole video

[@duglife2230]

I remember going to some fast food restaurant in the early 2000s that had a children's area with some sort of talking tree the kids could interact with. I was young enough to remember this, but not really anything else about it because this was definitely around the age where my memory first started working. It probably was not Ollie the Oak, but I thought I would share that anyway.

[@tessfabled4115]

Rainforest Cafe?

"The animatronics get a bit quirky at night"

[@popculturecorn5888]

Hey man, I'm not sure if you saw this or not, but I did have some video ideas for you, being some animatronics bands that aren't too well known nowadays: -The Magical Monkey Show (Avonturenpark Hellendoorn) -The Great Texas Longhorn Revue (Six Flags Astroworld) -The Jammin' Jesters (Enchanted Castle)

[@NotFlixRix]

Jammin Jesters has a big fandom behind it.

[@moreshore]

IM IN IL

[@BurntMemoriesAlt]

Two things to say: 1: I freaking LOVE the Jammin' Jesters. 2: Electric Mice Orchestra, Jungle Jamboree, Literally like any Disney animatronic. :)

[@NinoJoel]

While this is not exacly a stationary animatronic it maby still interests some people. Around 2010 ? one of my parrents took a buisness trip to the US and brought back a singing Animatronic Fish from MC´donalds that was ment to advertise Fish burgers they started making. The name was Franky These things seemed to be only available in the US and i never saw one besides the one i own. I also have no clue how popular these where in the US. (would be interesting if anyone knows more or maby even has one )

[@mattstecker]

Can you do a video on the mystery fun house animatronics in Orlando the wiz bang review ? I would love to see that those animatronics creeped me out as a kid they were scary

[@revolutiontimewithidiots1126]

YOURE AWSOME you're coment stile is fantastic you deserve more attention my dude

[@Colbynfriends]

I remember going to a location in Westminster CO that had one of the McDonalds figures with the Drink, Cheeseburger and Fries. Yes it was creepy.

[@TaraLane-r2y]

[@LazyHubbStudios]

I think the McDonald's video game machines were where I first discovered Mario.

[@Ratpathproductions]

Cats are green I have an idea for a series so I was looking on KZbin and I found like lots of people making their own animatronics so maybe you can say how good they are from 1 to 10 like some of them are very good

[@S.J.C._Entertainment]

Heh heh, maybe mine would make that list...

[@idc7473]

[@maryhaywood6226]

My McDonald’s had an animatronic show but I literally can’t remember anything about it 😩. I’m pretty sure there McDonald was one do the characters. But not that creepy one like you mentioned. I’m almost positive he was more statue like with a hard face 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@coolweathervids1849]

i think there was a mac tonight animatronic in Orlando not sure if it is still working and its the one where there's leaves everywhere and hes not attached to the wall

[@S.J.C._Entertainment]

As creepy as they may be, it would be awesome to watch a animatronic while eating a big mac.

[@I_sued_walmart]

Yeah lol

[@simonsays365]

[@emontrewaters3530]

Facts I’ll also To have at least 3 large McDonald’s in my city with the Arcade games

[@coltonandjen]

Do you think you could do a video on The Jungle Book Review? I found the name mentioned on the animatronic iceberg and it seems interesting, but all I could find searching it were reviews for the live action Jungle Book

[@disneysonicfan221]

You should do a video on the Stew Leonard’s animatronics.

[@fasttracks7673]
