Vintage Fisher Price Little People #2552 Mc and similar items

VINTAGE FISHER PRICE LITTLE PEOPLE #2552 MCDONALDS COMP. WITH BOX AND NEAR MINT! MORE PHOTOS BELOW Here is a 100% COMPLETE, Fisher Price Little People #2552 McDonald's Restaurant Play Set. Manufactured for only one year (1990), this toy is exceedingly hard to find with all its pieces and in this kind of condition (NEAR MINT). NOTE: This is the original version of this set. It featured the original Little People, NOT the chunky figures. This set is coveted by collectors and children alike:) The toy itself features a highly entertaining, slide-out playground with a McDonald's shake riding toy, a gobbling cheeseburger slide that opens and shuts with the push of a lever, a french fry mini- roller coaster, and a merry-go-round. One can even "launch" one of the Little People aloft on the blue catapult lever to land inside the cheeseburger and slide outside via the slide. What fun! This Vintage Fisher Price Little People McDonald's Restaurant Play Set has an "automatic" front door (the character steps on the step and the door opens), a drive-thru window with slide-out tray, an order counter complete with a cash register, a revolving menu board on the back door, and an indoor eating area. When the characters are finished eating at their table, they can slip away onto the playground by dropping through the escape hatches. All the moving parts are fully operational. The plastic surfaces are bright and colorful and are devoid of any cracks, chips, breaks, repairs, or discolorations. After close scrutiny, I can detect: 1. One "ding" and a couple of minor scuffs on the upper edges of the roof; 2. A total of two pin-head size rubs; one pin-head size rub is on one of the hamburger's eyes and the other is on one of the shake's eyes. That's it! This base is OUTSTANDING!!! All of the lithos, including the one on the shake toy, the revolving door, the Fisher Price logo, and the McDonald's sign on the restaurant itself are in NEAR MINT condition!!! The only "imperfection" I can discern is one small bubble at the lower edge of the McDonald shake litho. The rest of the lithos are in MINT condition. I've examined this play base with a "fine tooth comb." It's truly a WONDERFUL Vintage Fisher Price play set. Accessories for this GORGEOUS set include: 1 RARE Ronald McDonald (EXC-EXC++-- a few pin-head size rubs on the front of his hair; some paint loss on his right elbow along with some minor wear on his right sleeve; a couple of teensy marks on his white face paint; and one pin-head size black mark on the area below his tie; some of these marks may come off with a careful cleaning); 1 VHTF Hamburglar (EXC++- -- areas of light paint loss on his right pinky and third finger and on his left pinky; some minor wear on the rim of his hat; a pin-head size rub on his left pinky, and another on the tip of his tie; facial features are EXQUISITE!); 1 VHTF brown trash can (EXC++-NEAR MINT--two light spots, one on each side of the trash can; not sure what caused these; think they occurred during the manufacturing process); 1 VHTF McDonald's sign (MINTY MINT); 1 VHTF fry cart (MINTY MINT---NO CHEWS on fries!); 1 VERY RARE white and blue car w/front and back seats and fins (MINT--- NOTE: this car is UNIQUE to this set; it has no FP logo on hood; the under-side of the car says Fisher Price 1969-87; this car alone can cost anywhere from $15-35.00 on E-bay); 1 VHTF tall, coral bodied Mom w/black pony (EXC++-NEAR MINT--couple of very shallow indentations on the left side of her hair; these are EXTREMELY hard to spot; I literally had to hold the piece up within 3" of my eyes and rotate it in the light in order to see them); 1 VHTF yellow bodied boy with brown molded hair (NEAR MINT--NOTE: this is one of the variations Fisher Price used in the production of this set; instead of always using the yellow bodied boy with black molded hair, they sometimes used the yellow bodied boyI have inserted here; this little guy exhibits some minor edge wear around the back lower margin of his hair; this wear is approximately the width of a human hair; the rest of the piece is FABULOUS); and 1 HTF short, red bodied girl with dark brown sculpted hair (EXC++-NEAR MINT--slight roughness on lower edge of hair above forehead). The box demonstrates wear (residual tape, price stickers, major wear on the lithos, bulging sides, creases, gouges, tears along the seams etc.). All the flaps are present. I see no signs of water damage or extraneous markings on this box. Overall, on a scale from 1-10 with 10 being perfect, I would rate this box as being an 8.0. Please note I'm being super "nit-picky" in describing this set. Most sellers would not even mention the minor aberrations I have disclosed. In fact, many of my previous customers have stated that their purchases from me have FAR EXCEEDED my descriptions. Don't take my word for it; check out my feedback. This set would make a FANTASTIC addition to someone's Vintage Fisher Price Little People collection or for some special child to receive. What a RIVETING toy to have at Grandma's house for when the grandkids come to visit!!!! What little one doesn't enjoy pretending they're going to McDonald's? I will be thoroughly cleaning this play set with a child's toothbrush, toothpicks, and Q-tips before I send it to some lucky winner. I spend a MINIMUM of 1 1/2 -5 hours cleaning each and every VINTAGE Fisher Price Little People play set I sell (except for those clearly marked in MY ROUGH ROOM). I utilize a variety of cleaning products: Dawn w/anti-bacterial ingredients, Mr. Clean's Magic Eraser, Goo Gone, Soft Scrub, Comet, Chlorox bleach pen, Crayon Away, Naval Jelly, Armor All wipes etc. My sets are SQUEAKY CLEAN!!! NOTE: THIS VINTAGE PLAYSET IS NOT PART OF THE RECENT FISHER PRICE RECALL. THIS SET WAS MANUFACTURED IN THE GOOD OLD U.S.A.! DUE TO SMALL PARTS, THIS TOY SHOULD NOT BE GIVEN TO CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 3 OR TO CHILDREN WHO ARE STILL MOUTHING THEIR TOYS UNLESS THEY ARE SUPERVISED BY AN ADULT. Don't sit back and let this set pass you by. It won't last long. I'm providing a Buy It Now option for those buyers that can't monitor their computer screen every minute or who don't want to take the chance of being "sniped" in the last few seconds. Serious bidders only please! NON-PAYING BIDDERS WILL BE REPORTED TO E-bay. I hate to have to do this but I can't afford to tie up my inventory and time tracking down NON-PAYING BIDDERS. Happy bidding and good luck:) *****NOTE*****Please check out my other auctions for more COMPLETE VINTAGE Fisher Price Little People play sets. I hope to be listing up to 15 play sets within the next few days so check back often! This set weighs approximately 4 - 4 1/2 lbs. UNWRAPPED. My zip code is 47905 (INDIANA). See my other listings for more great items! Preferred payment is via PayPal. Payment is expected within 5 business days. The price listed is for the item itself. The total amount due will be the purchase price of the item + the ACTUAL shipping cost to deliver your item to you. All shipping costs or extra fees (in the case of Canadian shipments) are the responsibility of the buyer. I will do everything in my power to find you the cheapest shipping rate—-whether it’s the USPS (First Class, Parcel, or Priority), Fed Ex, or UPS. I DO NOT PAD MY SHIPPING COSTS—-NEVER HAVE AND NEVER WILL! I SHIP WITHIN 48 HOURS OF A CLEARED PAYMENT. I primarily utilize Fed Ex Home Delivery for items exceeding 5 lbs. in weight, measuring greater than 12 inches in any dimension, or traveling longer distances. I’ve been finding Fed Ex has been running @33% cheaper than the USPS (including Parcel Post) and UPS Ground. FYI, another benefit of using either Fed Ex or UPS is that their quote includes up to $100 worth of FREE insurance. Additional amounts of insurance may be purchased for a nominal fee (that is much less than the USPS). Fed Ex also provides automated tracking updates re: your parcel’s whereabouts directly to your personal e-mail account. In order to ship Fed Ex (or UPS for that matter), I MUST have a residential or work place address, NOT a P.O. Box number, as well as a home or cell phone. Otherwise, they will not accept the shipping paperwork or transport your item. Since Bonanza's shipping calculator does NOT offer Fed Ex Home Delivery as a shipping option, PLEASE DO NOT SEND PAYMENT UNTIL I HAVE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO MANUALLY CHECK THESE RATES AND INSERT THEM INTO YOUR INVOICE. Otherwise, the shipping calculator may overcharge you. Packages traveling to Alaska or Hawaii will be shipped Parcel Post via the USPS. Insurance and delivery confirmation are required. I’m more than willing to combine multiple purchases into one box whenever it is safe to do so to decrease your shipping costs. Once again, PLEASE wait to check out until I can combine your purchases on ONE INVOICE and can calculate their combined shipping rate via Fed Ex. If you pay for these items separately, I get charged multiple transaction fees by PayPal plus you get over-charged on your shipping. Of course, I will refund you any amount over $1.00 that you've overpaid on shipping. However, it's easier on both of us if you wait until I can send you the correct amount. I’m more than happy to ship selected play sets to Canada and Australia. Remember that shipping to Australia can be quite expensive so please contact me for a shipping quote before you purchase an item. I will attempt to find the cheapest shipping rate possible. Also, Australian and Canadian customers will be responsible for any brokerage fees, Custom’s duties, or VAT’s imposed by your governments. I am not responsible for these charges. Insurance is required for all international shipments. Last, but not least, I offer a 10% discount for orders totaling $125.00 or more. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. I have supplied a detailed description and many photos regarding this item. If you have any other questions or desire more photos, please contact me and I will forward this information to you. I strive to provide the best product possible along with the best customer service. I repeatedly inspect these items and diligently attempt to acknowledge any "imperfections." However, please remember these are Vintage toys, some of which may be 30-40 years of age. I'm only human and I may occasionally miss something. If I do, please contact me first before leaving feedback on Bonanza and I will do my best to rectify the situation. txzj pxzj28633 txzj44 txzj85
