P3D Re: Mickey viewer





Bob,

The images were photographed by Bernard Makinson who expects to be listed in
the Guinness Book of records for having the most duplicates made of his
images - the edition is 5 MILLION!

The promotion includes the rest of Mickey, as well. The head is the viewer
the images are printed on two film disks mounted in 2 inch diameter gears
that rotate against each other. The viewer lenses see a left image from one
disk/gear and the right image from the other disk/gear.

The torso top and arms are a water pistol. The pants open into binoculars and
in the each fot there is a self inkling roller that prints logos in blue and
red (I think), but are NOT anaglyphs.

A collectable for the future? probably!

Thanks so much for the clarification ! I'm not a regular McDonalds visitor but
I'm
going to check ASAP ! I've only three heads now and a complete Mickey would
be nice.

Cheers,

Peter
