Took my grandson to McDonalds the other day and they were giving away 3 1/2 high captain figures with kid's happy meals as part of their 'TinTin' film promotion. You can buy the figures for £1.00.

Hope this is of use to somebody

Cheers
Jon

She wouldn't cancel dinner as it had defrosted so we'll go down tomorrow.

A picture would be nice, but I'm suspecting it's large enough for a child to handle so might be in Action man range. Mind you, knowing MacDonalds it might also fit in an egg cup.

3.5 inches or three and a half inches or 3 1/2 inches tall, it's in the first post. so about 1/20th scale.

The McDonalds premiums at the minute are all from Tin Tin so the figure is going to be Captain Haddock
