McDonald's Flintstones Gadgets (1994) - Pt 1 Overview

This next short series features Flintstones toys offered by McDonalds in 1994 and focuses on the clever gadgets or tools that were shown throughout the series. There were of course many more shown in the cartoons than just the four McDonald's offered, but it's nice to see even these being made. The complete set consisted of:

-The Dicta-Bird

-Garbage Disposal

-Lawn Mower

-Vacuum Cleaner

Parkbräu Bier .5l 'P' 1961 Oktober-Fest

This is the last Parkbräu piece I have to blog. I totally forgot where I got this from, but unlike nearly all my other Parkbräu pieces, which I acquired in Good 'Ol Deutschland, I believe this one was a fleaBay purchase.

'The Flintstones' Movie Prop Cast Resin Repo Time Card

This is the last of my Flintstones movie props. While this was not an actual prop used in the movie, the seller had claimed that it was made using the same mold as the one they used to make the screen-shown cast resin props. It had come with instructions on painting it the brown/tan shades that you would have seen in the film, but those instructions are either lost or buried out in The Cave (same thing actually). The time card measures 9" (22.86cm) H x 5.5" (13.97cm) W x 1" (2.54cm) D.

I couldn't find any real good screen grabs of the 'clocking-in' sequence, but this was close. Notice though how many time cards are shown - I see at least eight!
