That Squidward one is pretty weird considering I don't think he's ever used his tentacles to give himself extra arms. He's always just stood on 4 legs.
Something else McDonald's did in the US for the 2012 Olympics was they brought back the "When the US wins, you win" promotion that they originally did in 1984. At the 1984 Summer Olympics is Los Angeles, because the Soviet Union and its Eastern Bloc countries and other allies chose to boycott the Olympics in reaction to the US-led boycott of the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, the US did insanely well. The US won a total of 174 medals. But because they did so well, McDonald's faced big financial costs for giving away so much free food. So the promotion was a failure financially, but they brought it back for Atlanta 1996, Nagano 1998, and London 2012 (where the prizes are only for gold medals) where it's an actual competition. And something they did in the UK at the Olympic Park was they built a huge temporary McDonald's that was, during the Olympics, the world's largest McDonald's! It had a square footage of 32,000, had 20 cashier lines, and two floors!
Peebs! The marshmallows are a reference to an episode where SpongeBob was trying to be strong so Sandy would want to hang out with him instead of Larry. He put them on a stick to try to lift them and he kinda failed.
If SpongeBob joined the DPRK national football team, we'd win every World Cup. Who needs the Olympics in Bikini Bottom when they can compete for the Fry Cook Games instead? Like the Deep Fry Pole Vault, with the entertainment of accidentally scald some audience members into fish sticks. Or Bun Wrestling, with the entertainment of using a pencil to erase a part of the opponent's name on their nametag so it's just Rick. Jokes aside, I love the Mario & Sonic at the Olympics series. Especially the Vancouver 2010 one. Dream Snowboard Cross at Radical Highway, Curling, Dream Short Track at Egg Factory, Ice Hockey, Dream Ice Hockey at Bowser's Castle...the events are an absolute blast. McDonald's isn't actually partnered with the Olympics anymore! They ended the partnership in June 2017, after sponsoring them since Grenoble 1968. Their reasoning was intense fast-food competition, television viewership of the Olympics shrinking and thus no longer getting their money's worth, and just overall cost-cutting so they could improve quality and technology.
Nothing but pure nostalgia. I had the Mr. Krabs toy and I still have it to this day. It is pretty dirty and the paint has warn off but I still have it. Always thought it was weird how Mr. Krabs has a spatula instead of Spongebob and weird how he is using as a sword but it’s still a funny cool toy.
Toasty, I need you to do me a favor and retroactively put "Ehh, ya missed, pal!" from Darkseed 2 in the video every time he comes close to hitting the box. Thanks, Toasty. Love you too.
I remember seeing these toys back in 2012 in this massive McDonald's in Florida. It had a bunch of arcade games, a stage with animatronics of The McDonald's Crew, a large play area & a gift shop, it was incredible, younger me could not believe what he saw.
You'd be surprised, mcdonalds has been contracted by the olympics to cater the athletes because they know how to make food fast and efficiently. I'm assuming their food was a bit more quality than a royale with cheese though.
Its always the sound effects that make this really cool even when the toys suck the sound effects really sell it and make it look fun like that patrick one
PBG I watch these videos for you, been watching since your original channel started, but I gotta say, Toasty did his thing in this one. Meme placement and usage were top tier.
You really gonna sit there and use dearly beloved from Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory for the SpongeBob leaving the universe? XD kinda laughed too hard from it.
Oh wow, nostalgia overload!!!! I remember having the basketball one the Frisbee one and the kayak one. I remember the Frisbee one being really hard to throw.
That Mr. Krabs Jousting toy was one of my most used toys way back when. The amount of drama Mr. Krabs would spar his way into was insane, but i wouldn't have it any other way! Also that surfing Spongebob was rarely ever on his boat, would always rip it off and use it as a car since i lacked toys with wheels. The rocket Sandy however, that was a rarely used toy.
What's funny is that karate wasn't an Olympic sport in 2012 but became one for the 2020/2021 games, along with Skateboarding. Thus this line became more accurate eleven years later than it was at the time
Tbh, this is my favorite PBG haircut. Don't get me wrong, the classic look is great, but this haircut just comes off so much...cleaner, I guess? I think part of it is that it brings me back to like 2017/2018, which is where some of my favorite videos come from, like BotW Hacking 1&2.
I loved the branding around the 2012 olympics, I think I was 10 at the time and you could find official olympics merch so easily and cheap here in the U.K. so I had a shit ton of toys of the mascots- including the McDonald’s ones haha Wenlock and Mandiville my beloveds, I’ll dig you guys out my attic some day if you guys are still in there, I think 10 year old me would have gone feral if we had the SpongeBob toys in the U.K. tho bruh
Im happy to see you're still killing it as a youtuber, and have not gone down in the funny factor at all, Long Live The PBG Man, Just now I realised I've never had peanut butter hmm
My brother and I got the Sandy, Karate Spongebob, and Discus Spongebob back when these were being given out (had no clue until now that they were for the Olympics, lol)
I love those toys I wish I wanted those at ebay from 2012 at McDonald’s because those SpongeBob Olympics toys from McDonald’s is the same like the 2012 Olympic Games of Mario and sonic
I remember being on a road trip when thos line was going. Since we were eating fast food a lot, my brother and i ended up with 4 of these. It was a good run of toys all around
