Awesome. I was going to ask if they still had an animatronic Mac Tonight still! I think there are a few of those around, but not many....Now let's head on upstairs!
And, finally, good ol' Ronald himself.
McDonalds Changeables Return!

Well, it seems some of it is, as the playground used to be twice the size it is now, and the arcade used to be bigger too. They seem to have cut both in half in order to make room for the upstairs dining area.
And downstairs used to have TV sets hung from the ceiling that would play episodes from "The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald", but those are long gone too, giving more room for the open-air kitchen and its bar-styled seating area that allows customers to watch the food being made.
Oh, and downstairs also used to have an indoor waterfall running down into a rainforest-styled fountain in the corner of the main dining area. That's long gone too.
So, not a complete husk, but it did used to be even more about entertainment than it is now.
I do see the open-air kitchen as a selling point though.
The late Adam the Woo has been there a few times.
Here's before it was renovated, I believe:

Im pretty sure its the last one with a functioning Mac Tonite.
Do we know if the Changeables are blind bagged or not?
Well booo. Drove through McDonalds today and got 2 Happy Meals, only to realize once I got to my destination that they hadn't switched over to the Changeables yet. Anyone want two little basketball hoop shooter things?
Update: my wife stopped by the GOOD McDonalds and got a proper Happy Meal
Official announcement that these are sold out nationwide in 3... 2...
They're larger than I was expecting, though I think that Torrus here is one of the larger ones.
Kind of in the neighborhood I figured. How are they next to a Botbot?
Looks like So
Looks like Solardyn's propped up by Studio Series Nickel there, too.

I remember those weird triangular McDonald's screws.
Quite a bit larger:
Yeah, unfortunately he's got a small piece broken off. Almost imperceptible, but it doesn't let him stand up without paying an additional $0.05 fee.
I'm disappointed that some of the new robotic changeables have stickers/painted on faces rather than sculpted.
I really want to snag a couple of these but I'm probably gonna have to wait till Friday.

Oh, oof, you're not kidding.
Still, I guess it works? And this one is on the bigger side out of all of them...
It's meant to feel as big in your hand as the originals did at the time.
Torrus does transform into a whole Playplace. He's the Trypticon of Bot-Bots.
