hamburglar
- Hamburglar - The Hamburglar was a pint-sized thief who first appeared in March 1971 and one of the first villains on the commercials. He is dressed in a black-and-white hooped shirt and pants, a red cape, a wide-brimmed hat, and red gloves; hamburgers are his primary target. The character, like Grimace, started out as a villain, only he was older, had a long nose, and gray hair. He was revised in the mid-80s: his look changed from a trollish old man to a red-headed child, and his unintelligible muttering became the familiar "robble robble."
*Hamburglar was later retired. In the 2000s, he was temporarily revived for an ad campaign for generic burgers instead of Happy Meals. In "The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald," he takes on a new sporty appearance wearing green goggles, a leather jacket, striped shirt, shorts and sneakers.
*He loves playing tricks on his friends and still loves burgers.
