McDonald's released a set of Fraggle Rock Happy Meal toys in 1988.
The set included four Fraggle cars:
- Gobo Fraggle in carrot car
- Red Fraggle in radish car
- Mokey Fraggle in eggplant car
- Wembley Fraggle and Boober Fraggle in cucumber car
An additional two toys were made for children under three:
- Gobo Fraggle figure holding carrot
- Red Fraggle figure holding radish
Each toy came in its own Happy Meal box.
A McDonald's commercial showcasing the toys was also produced, with new footage of the animated Fraggle Rock. Addtionally, Fraggle Rock mugs, aprons, and trucker caps were made available to McDonald's employees.

Test Happy Meal[]
A test version of the Fraggle Rock Happy Meal toys were sold the previous year in the southern part of West Virginia. Test Market Happy Meals are released on a very limited basis in a small area to test the popularity of the toys, and to see whether or not a nationwide promotion is warranted. McDonald's has discontinued this practice in recent years.
The test version included the Gobo and Red cars, but also included two Doozer cars instead of Mokey, Wembley, and Boober's cars. The two Doozer cars were a fork lift and a bulldozer.
