McDonalds items different?

Mon Jul 31, 2006 3:28 am

I was looking for something in my safety deposit box, and I'm pretty sure that my McDonald's items have automagically changed into totally different stuff. Has some sort of promotional contract run out? I think I had a regular milk chug and a chocolate milk chug, which have become Swirly Chocolate Milk and Chocolate Kau Milk. A search for McDonalds Chocolate Milk turns up zippo. o_O

Yes, several sponsor items have been changed. See this NeoItems thread.

Thanks, Kimiko for that insight. I actually thought I was going a bit crazy yesterday. I saw Bubble Negg in someone's shop and wondered why I had never seen that before now (I sell neggs exclusively on Neopets).

Yea. I lost two gallery items because of it. My gallery is Glass bottles and Baby Bottle Pops Blue Raspberry Candy Juice & Baby Bottle Pops Strawberry Candy Powder have turned into Orange Baby Aisha Lollypop & Raspberry Baby Baby JubJub Lollypop. Ewww

I think the little pocket Neopet playsets are cuter now anyway. :) I'm glad I kept my kougra one! As for the other items... I don't know, kind of a lame turnover. At least the item theme is still the same.

I find that kinda sad that they are removing old sponser items expecialy actualy ITEMS being changed to think how much some of that McDonalds food use to go for wow.

Most of those items are not as cute as they used to be, though some are perhaps cuter. They should be careful when they make the change to really try hard to make the items especially attractive. IMO.

I do think 'Continuous Meat' is hilarious, however.
