    If only they would still do this. This is what made it fun to want to go see the movie. Kids today will never know the excitement kids experienced in the 80s and 90s with all the advertising aimed at us.

      "Kids today will never know the excitement kids experienced in the 80s and 90s with all the advertising aimed at us."
      Ok, I may be born in the year 2000's which was the year you 80's/90's elitists hate so much but as much as I have respect to the 80's and 90's? the only problem I have with those years is the elitists fanbases that keep using that term "kids today" as an insult.

    I wish they had toys of Penguin gushing dark blood from his mouth like the scene before he dies, or a Catwoman one with Bullet holes like how Max Shrek shot her, or even Penguin's Caravan where it's intended to have firstborn kids drowning in a watery grave. ;) oh or even just the button Penguin pushed into that young woman's 'chest'. Then I would have never eaten at Burger king again. ;)

    I remember having the cup with Selina and Bruce on it as a kid. Probably the lamest one of the bunch lol. As an adult, though, I have the whole set. Even have the frisbee disc lids for all of them. I'm not even a huge fan of Batman Returns as I think it's too much of a weird Tim Burton movie more then a Batman movie, but I do really enjoy collecting the McDonald's stuff.

    McDonalds shortly discontinued the happy meal and cups back in 1992. I was 12 at the time, and I vividly remember the uproar over the movie not being for children and McDonalds being irresponsible for selling toys to such a non-kid friendly film. I was like: The movie is PG-13, so it’s not recommended for young kids. Parents need to take it upon themselves to preview movies to make sure kids can handle it. Of course, the late 80s and early 90s were an odd time, as lots of R-Rated films like Robocop, Terminator, Aliens, and even the Toxic Avengers got cartoons and action figures, even though the movies weren’t age appropriate. I even remember thinking at the time the Penguin’s plot to drown the newborn kids of Gotham was deliberately trying to get people pissed off, as controversy usually sells more tickets.
