McDonalds usually make their toys out of plastic and they are usually based off of a popular kids movie or tv show. The toy is usually made for young children to keep them occupied. They usually do something like wind up, make noises, whistle, move around, or have small toy guns attached to the toy.

Construct and test Prototype
I showed my mom and dad the prototype and they thought that the idea was pretty original and that the minion looked pretty cool.
Evaluate Solution
With this project what I would change would maybe be the Minions body. With the Minion I think that we should have made the body smaller so the Minion wouldn't look look so long . The Minion, I think, looks a bit big but overall I think the minion turned out pretty well.I feel that this project was pretty fun and I enjoyed working with anthony. During the project Anthony worked on the inventor stuff and I worked on the weebly Due to Anthony being more skillful on inventor than I am. Overall I think the project turned out very nice and I enjoyed working with Anthony on our final project in pre-engineering.
