The set
The individual pieces of this promotion aren’t documented yet. If you have one, add it with a photo and we’ll build the set from there.
Packaging & bags
Toys were packed in small plastic bags with a box of Nerds.
Research notes
Included only as a research lead because one collector site treats it as that year's Halloween Happy Meal. Its six characters (Baloo, Hathi Jr., Bagheera, King Louie, Kaa, Mowgli) are not itemized, because the Halloween link is weak.
