Early 1980s Happy Meal Toys, Pullback Cars
A set of four pull back racers for McDonald's Happy meals from around 1984 I think. They survived the ravages of time by being forgotten and stored with a bunch of other little cars. Now that kiddo is 3, I dug up all those old toys, cleaned them off, and they are alive again. He particularly likes the Big Mac (the constable) police car and was thrilled when he figured out that if he pulled them back, they would go on their own.
There is a slot on the back of each car to put a penny so that they would do a wheelie, which I think was an idea on the coattails of Penny Racers, if you remember those.
