McDonald’s Plans To Turn Around Its Flailing Company With Hamburglar Redesign

Yikes. With a need to constantly update appearances for modern times, McDonald’s has given a makeover to yet another iconic character in its cast of misfits. With Ronald McDonald recently going through a hipster-esque upgrade, popular nemesis “The Hamburglar” couldn’t be too far behind.

Looks like his time has come.

The fast food company revealed the newest look for the burger thief and it’s a tad underwhelming. It was teased earlier in the week that this new incarnation is a suburban dad with a checkered striped taste for McDonald’s burgers.

We would’ve been more than happy with the chubby ginger in a striped onesie and cape.

Bet you anything the new Grimace will just be a guy in a purple suit.
