aight so i went deep dive into eBay, talked to a couple of old McD's managers, even checked those retro facebook groups... nada. it's like a McD's conspiracy to erase the 90s playplaces from history lol😅 if sum1 finds it, it'll be like finding the holy grail fr

Very interesting question! From what I understand, many of these playgrounds were dismantled and the parts were recycled or trashed. It's a real shame because those play areas are a huge part of fast-food culture from that era. I read an article once about how the designs were changed due to safety regulations and changing public attitudes towards the child play in fast-food joints. maybe someone's got old VHS tapes of birthday parties at McD's with the playground in the bg?

I've been collecting old McDonald's memorabilia for years & trust me, the hunt for McPlayPlace stuff is tough! The HamBurglar maze thing your cousin mentioned might've been a smaller, less common design cause it's not ringing any bells. 🤔 There were a bunch of regional variations, so it's possible it was only in select locations. I'll def keep an eye out for it tho!
