This week we're looking at the last few Batman Forever mugs and glasses that I own. Not quite sure how I ended up with so many of these but they're kinda fun. Just the same old problems with them being Applause, the paint application is a little sloppy. As I say in the video I'm 99% sure they didn't make a Riddler mug in this style but if anyone knows better let me know.

Batman Forever Merchandise Review - Ceramic Head Mugs from Applause
Well, we've done the McDonalds glass mugs and the Applause plastic mugs. Now we come to the Applause ceramic head mugs. These are really fun mugs. They've tried several times to make mugs in the shape of Batman's head and for my money these are the best. The likeness is good, the paint work and actually - for Applause - not too shabby. If you can find the set of these I highly recommend them.
That just leaves one last set of mugs (again by Applause) to cover and we'll be all wrapped up!

Miscellaneous content: McDonalds branding
I've already covered the McDonalds TV adverts here.
http://www.1995batman.com/2018/09/video-advertisements-mcdonalds.html
And I reviewed the McDonald Glass Mugs here.
http://www.1995batman.com/2019/06/batman-forever-merchandise-review-glass.html
So finally I want to look at the neat branding McDonalds used on their packaging because it was really top notch and featured some illustration work that was never used anywhere else.
First up is the tray liner featuring illustrations of the glass mugs that were available in the US and Europe (not the UK though, scroll down to the end to see what we got).
Next is the cups, bag and fries holders (one for all four of the main characters). I'm disappointed we didn't get a Dr Chase Meridian but I guess she looks like she's never even touched a French fry in her entire life.
Here's some close-ups of the fries holders. Some really nice illustration work here and I love the fact files on the back.
And finally here's what we got in the UK instead of the amazing glass mugs. Yeah... a cardboard mask... a flimsy cardboard mask. I'm glad I didn't visit McDonalds in 1995. I would have been an incredibly disappointed child.
