Sad to say the kids toys they gave away for Batman & Robin are not as cool as the Glass mugs they did at McDonalds for Batman Forever.
For the 1997 movie KFC had the fast food license (in the UK anyway) and offered a Kids Colonel Meal that had 1 of 4 tie-in toys depending on which week you bought the meal.
Weirdly only two are connected to the film - an inflatable bat symbol and a puzzle cube featuring some awesome artwork of the main characters.
The other two are a transforming batmobile and a squirting Mr Freeze statue based on the animated series designs.
Not sure why they did this - one commenter on the video says that the animated ones were given away by Taco Bell in the US a year earlier and both companies have the same owner so maybe they just wanted to get rid of some extra stock. Who knows?
