Manta Posted September 13, 2008 (edited) Welcome to another of my McDonald's reviews. This one is of the 3rd in the series of promo sets ( don't worry I don't have all 8 to write reviews on. ), The Bridie Plane. If it's a bird, does it need a plane though? 2075 - McDonald's Promo Set #3 Packaging The packaging of this set features a great picture with a nice background, which accurately describes the set. Great job TLC, all of the plastic bag sets have good packaging. I wish these sets were still in circulation, especially this one, because it contains a nice amount of pink plates. Front The front shows a nice printed slope, and a propeller to propel the plane. I kind of wish this set was made into a biplane, because I like biplanes, they just look neat. Anyway, this printed piece isn't anywhere near as cool as the Ronald McDonald one, but it still works. No DSS in this set! Side The back is OK, not the best design, but not the worst. I don't like the color scheme in this set, It would be better if the white pieces where replaced with yellow or pink pieces. Set Information Name: McDonald's Promotional Set Number 3 Number: 2075 Year: 1999 Theme: Promotional Pieces: 14 Peeron My Brickshelf (when moderated) The Build This set is built pretty basically, and is vary bland. Pieces The parts in this set are fairly basic, like all of these promo sets. This set has a nice amount of pink plates though, which is what makes this set stand out as a good McDonald's Promo Set. Interesting Parts As previously mentioned, there is a fair amount of pink pieces, which is very good. The set also comes with a propeller, which is a staple for any Helicopter builder. The Base Basic. Move along. The Rest You can see the printed piece in this shot. Move Along. OK, now we are done with that dull build. It was dull, and that is really all I can say about the build, but this set is really a parts set, because of the pink pieces. Dull, Dull, desperately Dull. Very Dull. Dulltastic. Conclusion This set is a great set for pink parts, and not a well designed set. Parts: 10/10, This set has a great amount of pink pieces, which is the strong point of the set. Design: 4/10, The color scheme really kills this set's design. Build: 6/10, The build is very basic, but it is better than watching paint grow. Overall:20/30 Fry Cook Air Force Invading a town near you! Coming Up Next Fry Girl's boat. Until next time: ~Manta Edited September 13, 2008 by Manta Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KimT Posted September 20, 2008 Weak design, but some pretty useful parts in nice colours. I'll rate this set below average, but getting it for free with a McD meal might equalize that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
