Title: New Burger King Premium
Post by: marianas_gamer on March 20, 2007, 01:49:30 PM
Fellow VSF and Pulpster fans ,
I wanted to bring to your attention another fast food premium that can easily grace our game board like the Dennys rocket ship cup that was all the rage a couple of weeks ago (Yup, I have two of them now and am planning on converting them into a conjoined twin Zeppelin for my Waffen Poletzei out of Herbertshohe in Kaiser Wilhelm Land for action against the “Boogie”in the Banda and Celebes Seas). I don’t know what this amazing contraption is of yet but it is a Wallace and Gromet premium available through Burger King if you order one of their kids meals (I don’t feel the need to supersize myself so I usually order one of these and pass the toys onto my grandkids – except for this one – Its Grandpa’s toy d#*n it! :lol:  :lol:  :lol: ).

So anyway follow the link to my Flickr account and check it out raw and primed black (apparently just encountered by one of the many Chinese pirates in the region!). How do you think that I should paint it and what is it?!?  Oh and by the way, all of you just back from Cold Wars, yes I am incredibly jealous!

What a great thingamy, I'll have to see if they have them in the Burger King up the road tomorrow.

And my wife says I don't take her to nice restaurants anymore.  :-}=

That Burger King guy scares the shit out of me. If I ever find him lurking outside my window I'm going to kill him. I don't care if he has a whopper for me or not.

I will go get the toy, though.

 :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Burger King had a promotion where they sold Xbox games starring the King. One of them involved sneaking up on people and offering them burgers. I HIGHLY recommend that one, because of how absurd the game was.

Weeell, they don´t use the "King" as a promotional figure here in Germany, so they rely on the quality of their food and "macho" ad spots to sell their stuff.

And I certainly prefer Würger King to McDoof.

I second the spookiness of that Burger King guy.  

They were selling the game at my local Burger King.  I couldn't take my eyes from it, it was so bizarre looking!   :lol:

I may be able to handle him peering through the window at me, but if I woke up to find him in my bed like in that one comercial I may go homicidal!  (even if he does have a breakfast sandwich for me...   :wink: ).

So true, so true.

Incidentally McD and BKing have always been favorites for my kids. Each of them took a HappyMeal and we grownups got the MaxiMenu.  :D
Nowadays they get the Big Portions while I nibble on the Kids Menu :?
I wouldn't mind one or two of those toys though :P
