- Big and- - [Bean] Small. ♪ It is something when they're jumping ♪ - Hey. - Out now from Moose. - [Announcer] Mighty Beanz. - In 1994, childhood friends and recent University
of Ontario graduates, Ronnen Harary and Anton Rabie, with their classmate, Ben
Varadi, gathered up $10,000 and decided to create the company that is now known as
Spin Master Corporation, a multinational toy and
entertainment company. You might know them now as people that produced the "PAW Patrol" movie. No? 'Cause I didn't. Didn't know "PAW Patrol" had a movie. All I know is that one
of those pups is a cop. And after that point, my
eyes just blurred together, and I just lose interest. Anyways, they're a very
successful company. Over 28 toys in a year, and they used to make that
Icee and McFlurry Maker if anyone else remembers
that other than my fat ass. Now, fast forward to 2002, an Australian toy company by
the name a Moose Enterprise released a collectible toy
known as Jumpin' Beans, not jumping, jumpin',
I-N with an apostrophe because it's fun. I don't know. A three-dimensional ovaloid with small flat circular
ends on either side. A large plastic capsule
with a metal BB inside decorated with a character
that were more just rolled around in a jerky fashion, and it actually just jump. Though the name was a bit misleading, it became a rising hit in
the Australian toy market, which made it catch the eye of
Mr. Spin, Spin Master master, whom in 2003 set their mission to incorporate the Jumpin'
Beans into the American market. And guess how they did it? First, they helped them
by changing the name to Mighty Beanz.
- Mighty Beanz. - 'Cause the term Jumpin' Beans won't really pass here in America. I believe there's, like,
something from Mexico that has that name. I'm not fully certain actually. I didn't research that
part, y'all, I got lazy. But in order to successfully
incorporate the toy into the American market, they
had to raise its publicity. So they initially released
the product in a test city, just one, in order to help
raise awareness of the toys and gain retailer trust in sales. And how did they gain the trust? By raising its popularity and demand. And how did they raise the
toy's popularity and demand? By getting it banned
from classrooms legitly. They purposely tried to make kids obsess with the toys to the point that schools would take note of that and actually make a public statement banning the toys from classrooms. That public rule became a
perfect word-of-mouth marketing scheme to make these
plastic capsules skyrocket. Even my classrooms banned them. Banned, but not really fully banned, like, no one really enforced it. It's just like you couldn't
be annoying with it if you had it in class,
you know what I mean? So the Beanz became a success, gaining $40 million in
sales in the first year and launching, basically, the blueprint of how many manufacturers now market and soft-release their toys. Everything was going great, but like any toy of any
generation, people grew up, people became disinterested, and the toy was discontinued in 2006. The Mighty Beanz was
then relaunched in 2010 with a brand new logo and now included TV and movie characters from hit productions like "The
Simpsons" and "Star Wars". And the excitement was going great for, like, a couple of months. And then it got discontinued in 2012. But don't fret 'cause the Beanz were then relaunched in 2018 with
over 140 new characters all launched on the same exact day, September 1st to be exact. And they even released a
"Fortnite" set of characters a couple years later, which I did not buy. I'm never going to buy. Shut up, shut the fuck up. Shut up, shut up. Shut up, nerd. But anyways, here they are! (tongue-clicking)
- [Kids] Yay! (Beanz laughing) - Well, hello, my fellow
vagina-loving people. Are you ready to flick some
Beanz today? (whimpering) I'm a genius, okay? - [Announcer] Mighty Beanz. - Mighty Beanz.
♪ Mighty Beanz. ♪ - [Announcer] Mighty Beanz. - So this product has
basically been a fever dream of mine for, like, years. I literally forgot it existed until someone tweeted me a photo of it, and a plethora of memories
came rushing into my head to the point that I literally
had an asthma attack. So welcome back to another episode of Mac Buying Things That
He Always Wanted as a Child But His Parents Did Not Let Him Have It. Welcome back to another episode of Were My Parents Right
To Not Give Me This When I was a Child? - Wow, wow, wow, wow.
- I really wanted this, okay? Long story short, I was
obsessed with seeing them in the commercials. You know, when you walked
down the grocery store, they would just like have 'em
at random aisles at the time. Like, at the grocery store when they have, like, those things that are just, like, poking out that are purposely placed
for kids to, like, want and, like, beg their
parents for while your mom and dad are literally just
trying to find pepper. That's what the Mighty Beanz were for me. Always post it up in the
middle of a random aisle. Never an aisle it was supposed to be in. And I always wanted a
packet of Mighty Beanz. But my parents never gave
me a packet of Mighty Beanz. You wanna know why? 'Cause they knew I would probably lose interest in two seconds. So we're gonna figure that
out today. (lip-trilling) Super mighty powerful Mighty Beanz. Watch them turn. Watch them burn. Watch them do the absolute bare minimum for your satisfaction. The Mighty Beanz
(Beanz grunting) were literally a glorified fidget toy. A fidget toy they turned
into a collectible because there's, like,
hundreds of them now. Literally hundreds. Also
got one of the tracks, ooh. - [Kids] Yay! - You don't care, I don't care either. I didn't even know they made tracks. I low-key forgot that
part of the commercial. Girl, these Beanz
would've been everywhere. If I got this, I would've lost these Beanz in motherfucking rooftop gutters all across the neighborhood. Girl, I would've been a menace. People's drainage systems
would've been clogged because of my ass. Maybe my parents saved me
from destroying the world. Let's be honest, les be honest. - [Announcer] Collect 'em! - Mighty Beanz. (speaking gibberish) Mighty Beanz. (speaking gibberish) Whatever, I don't know. Didn't they also release like
square Beanz at one point? - I've never seen a bean like you. - Girl, they were desperate,
okay? (lip-trilling) - [Announcer] Mighty Beanz. - They're really something,
but they're nothing. ♪ They're really something
but they're nothing ♪ - They're really something,
but they're nothing. What did they say? ♪ They're really something
but they're nothing ♪ - Mighty Beanz. Spin 'em or you fluff 'em, I don't know. - [Announcer] Mighty Beanz. - You really got 'em, but you get 'em. Whatever the fuck. 15 Beanz and 15? (dramatic music) Girl, how much should I pay for this? $28? Okay, that still feels expensive. But 15 Beanz are in this, bitch. Or 15 Alinterieur. Yes, "Flip, roll 'N' race!" (speaking in foreign language) Girl, I am fluent. Okay, at this point, I love how they even give you a preview of how much bullshit you're
getting yourself into. That might have been a
bad idea. I don't know. But look at her, girl. Look at her, girl. ♪ I'm headstrong, girl ♪
(Beanz rattling) ♪ But you're no longer ♪ ♪ Using up this space of mine ♪ I'm sorry, I went numb for a second, way and oh!
- Mighty! - Oh, shit, there's so many Beanz. So many Beanz.
(arcade music) We got Hairy Beanz Chevelus, Spy Guy Beanz Des Espions, Pet Beanz Des Ami-Maux, and even some Martial Art
Beanz Des Arts Martiaux. Wow, why am I hard? - [Kid] Wonder what I got. (Beanz rattling)
(box clacking) - Oh, yeah. It's only
taken me a few years. Badabish got a box cutter. Period, girl. We got sharp weaponry, girl. He's an adult now. He's an adult now. You can't stop him. Okay, ready? You guys ready? You guys ready?
(cutter clicking) Fuck, yeah. Here's the next one I wanna hear. (cutter rustling) Did you come? - [Announcer] Mighty Beanz! (box clacking) (Mac moaning) - Okay. Okay. We did it. Okay, we made it. Okay. (panting) Okay, get out. (lip-trilling) - Mighty!
- Look at them, wow, Have they always been this thick? Have they always been this fatty? I'm sorry, I feel like in the commercials, they were always skinnier. Or am I crazy? Am I crazy? Maybe I'm just, like, super thin. - [Announcer] Skinny,
skinny, skinny, skinny skinny, skinny, skinny, skinny. - Let me live in this
fantasy for a second, okay? Let me live in this fantasy
for a fucking second. - Mighty!
- Ooh, wait, there's instructions. Oh, it's just a list of all the Beanz that's on the back of the box. Why'd you double up? Girl, calm down. Mighty Beanz, okay, calm the fuck down. You're like, "Have you
seen the Beanz yet?" Did you look at the Beanz? You want more Beanz? Where are you gonna get 'em more Beanz?" Hey, girl, what if I
don't want more Beanz? What if I'm full? I have gas problems. (lip-trilling) - Mighty!
- Oh, oh, there are instructions, okay. Oh, it's instructions on games to play with the Mighty Beanz, okay? You're supposed to play games with them. Now we're learning. Now we're figuring that
out just right now. I thought it was just a fidget toy, but it's a toy to play games with. Okay, you see, this is what happens when you don't give me things as kids, parents, okay? (lip-trilling) I don't learn, I don't
become cultured. (sobbing) Y'all had me out here
playing with building blocks and magnetics because
my dad was an engineer when I could have been using Mighty Beanz to annoy my classmates. (lip-trilling) - Mighty!
- Okay, let me check out my other package. You guys wanna see that? (plastic scrunching)
(Beanz rattling) (plastic scrunching continues) (Beanz rattling continues) Oh. (Beanz rattling) Okay, it's good. (plastic scrunching)
(Beanz twanging) Last one. (box thudding) (plastic scrunching)
(Beanz twanging) (Beanz rattling) Girl, if you don't wipe up your stomach with that towel right now, I swear, I know, girl, I know. I know what happened, girl. - Yay!
- And here they are, wow. I like how they all literally flocked into the center of my
table to show you guys that this table has a
divot on the middle of it, and it's not fully flat. I feel like I just, like,
revealed a facade. (lip-trilling) Let us clear the table.
Let us clear the table. Let us clear the table, we got guests. Ooh, wow, holy shit. (giggling) Fuck. Okay, so we got some
crazy-ass-looking Tasmanian devil. Bullshit, I don't fucking
know what this is. Oh, it says on the back. Oh my God, Werewolf Mighty Bean, girl. Then we have, oh my God. (lip-trilling) Big Fro Mighty Bean. Ooh, y'all don't give a rat's ass, do you? Oh my God, they all have numbers on them. Girl, this literally was a collectible. They're really serious about this. M2220, King Mighty Bean, fuck. Shit, y'all get the picture now. Y'all get the picture. You want me to show you every single Beanz 'cause I really don't want to. I am the best creator on this platform. I want you to know that. - Mighty.
- Oh, guys, this one's throwing up. Ooh, yummy, Barfing Mighty Bean, whoa. Put it back in your pants, Johnny. And then we have a shark. Yum, yummy. Then there's a sea lion, a mermaid woman that looks terrifying. Let me show you this one. Let me show you this one actually. This girl's partying. This girl's here for a good time. This girl wants to fuck shit up. This girl wants to become
pregnant yesterday. You know what I mean? (lip-trilling) This is Ariel's sister that you have to drag
outta the club, okay? She drunk, she drunk, girl. You got a kid eating a bunch of food. Pink monster thingy, Frankenstein. We got a purple spider, ew, what? Ew, what? Football player because of sports. And then this was like a double. What is this? Hot vs Cold Mighty Bean. Oh yeah, it is two. It's two separate Mighty Beanz. How? That's cheating. (lip-trilling) You're gonna double the Mighty Bean? I don't know, there could be someone watching this video right now, and be screaming at me, and being like, "Oh my God, that's the rarest one, Mac, holy fuck." I'm like, "Girl, pay
me 200, $200 right now, 1,000, 5,000, how much is this? What's going on?" - Mighty, mighty.
- Okay, there we go. As you can see, I'm bored. (lip-trilling) - Mighty.
- Let's flip them and see how they feel. (Beanz rattling) They don't even flip
all the way fully over. It just starts rolling. (Beanz rattling) Oh, I spoke too soon. They said, "Shut the fuck up, Mac. Don't you ever, don't you ever
talk shit." (lip-trilling) (whimpering) Oh, I would've been a menace. I would've been a menace in school. I understand this. I get this now. Do you get it? 'Cause I get it. Wait, wait, hold on. Wait, you guys, guys, look it, look it. (bean rattling) Oh, sperm, what?
- Mighty! - Should I play one of the games? I don't give a shit. - Mighty!
- I mean, they feel cool. Do you hear that? (bean rattling) Oh, you fucking like that shit. Oh, that's what you want. (lip-trilling) There's literally a metal BB inside. You can hear that. You can hear it with the whole penisy. Okay, wait, I'm gonna
pretend to be a straight man real quick, look at me. (bean rattling) (laughing)
(goofy music) I flicked the bean. I flicked it! The bean is the clitoris, right? Like, is that what that is? What is the clitoris? - Mighty!
- I am so sorry. I just have not experienced
that much life. (lip-trilling) - Mighty.
- We're gonna move this batch over here. And now we're going to open.
- Drop. (Mac groaning) - Calm down, calm down, calm down, calm down, calm down, calm down, calm down, calm down. Bitches, and now we're
going to open up this girly. Wanna open this one second because there's literally, like, five different languages on this package. This one only had two languages. So I don't know what went down. That this one only had to
market for two separate markets while this one's marketing for, like, 12, "Eight Beanz inside!" (speaking in foreign language) (grunting) You know? You know. Girl, I probably shouldn't
be doing that. (lip-trilling) Those are two separate
languages right there if I've ever seen one. One of them is Russian. I know that for a fact. That has to be. But the other one. (melancholy music) Indonesian? Girl, I don't know. Portuguese? Girl, I don't know. "Flip, roll 'N' race." (speaking in foreign language) And then those two, girl, I'm not even gonna try
anymore. I'm gonna try it. (speaking in foreign language) The last one. (speaking
in foreign language) I'm so genius. - Mighty!
- We gotta peel right here. You guys ready to hear it? (wrapper scrunching) Oh, girl, you're dripping. I know it. ♪ Lock it in tight, get a whole stack ♪ - And now we're just supposed to slam? And it's supposed to just explode? Y'all ready? 'Cause I'm not. I'm scared. Ooh, wait,
girl, there's instructions. "Read before opening," oh, shit. (speaking in foreign language) - Mighty!
- Oh, what? Oh shit, what? I'm supposed to slam it. And then I'm supposed to
see it grow and burst. Okay, I'm glad I read that
before I fucking, okay. Step away a little bit too. Okay, y'all ready? I'm scared. Okay, ready? Okay, ready? (device clanking) (squealing) I didn't do it right. - [Announcer] Mighty!
(device clanking) (Mac squealing) - Mighty!
- Okay, I'm gonna slam it really hard, okay, this time. (device clanking)
(squealing) Okay, this is it, this is it. (squealing) (device clacking) (squealing) (coughing) Oh my God, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, (coughing) oh, oh. I'm sorry, when I get
overwhelmed with thoughts, I just, like, start choking
on my own spit. (laughing) - [Announcer] Mighty! Mighty! - Okay, and now we're back after my unscheduled asthma attack. You're the bean. But first, they also
had something in a bag called a Hairy Bean. And I'm gonna see what the fuck this is. Who are you? What is this? Wait, oh, oh, this is nothing. Oh, it literally, oh my God. Oh my God, it literally has a sign that says not to cut it. I literally just cut it. Am I going to die? - [Announcer] Mighty! - Let's see what we got. Oh, I do see some repeat. So it's time to get my money back, bitch. That's what that means. I think there are three
repeated Beanz in total. Sea Lion dude and Lady
Bug Bean, bean, girl. Bean, girl. Girl, you so beanie. Girl, lady, lady, lady, where you been? Girl, girl, girl, why is he not focusing? I'm trying. (laughing) - Mighty!
- There it is. Okay, here. Girl, lady, you so buggy bean. Someone take me to a foster house. - Mighty!
- San Dru Kid. This looks like the most
demonic-looking child. Girl, why does she look like this? Why does she have to look like this? This feels like a hate crime. All she wanted was to go to the club. But now, now she's smooshed. I don't know, girl. Oily Mechanic Mighty Bean. Brushing Hippo Mighty Bean. A Burglar Baddy? Girl, don't show Zeus this. That might be the title of another show. And then a Monster Mighty Bean. Oh, focus, focus, focus, focus. Oh, there you go. Okay, there you go. But here are all our Mighty Beanz.
- Yay! (Beanz rattling) Yay. Is it? Are you not focused on me? Why are you focused on my background? Thank you, yay. - [Announcer] Mighty! - So far, don't give a shit, okay? So far, this is probably gonna be sitting on this coffee table
for, like, a month, girl, just in the center of it. This is gonna be my centerpiece. I'm not gonna give a shit. Okay, but now I have the Flip Track, the track to flip the Mighty Beanz, I guess, to play a game when
you flip them onto something. So we're gonna open that and figure the fuck that shit is. I would read the box, but it's literally all just in English, and that is boring as hell. So what the fuck? - [Announcer] Mighty! (box hissing) - Oh, that turned you hard. - [Announcer] Bean! (bean clacking) - No. - [Announcer] Bean!
(bean rattling) (bean twanging) - Okay, okay, okay, girl, I'm into it. Wait, okay, well, I'm gonna put, I'm gonna put you guys over here. I'm gonna put you guys over here. Put you guys over here so you guys don't hear the loud bang, okay? 'Cause I wanna protect you all, okay? 'Cause I love you all
'cause I, look at me, 'cause I understand you, and I want you to know that I don't want to cause harm to your life. Okay, let's flip a bean. Let's flip a fucking bean, bitch. (bean rattling) (bean twanging) (bean clacking) Ooh, wait.
- Bean. - I'm going to try to flip a bean into this cup, okay? Okay, you're ready to be amazed? Here we go, here we go, here we go. (bean rattling) (bean twanging) (bean clacking) Y'all didn't see shit. - Bean!
- Here we go. (bean rattling) (bean twanging) (bean clacking) That didn't count. - Bean!
- Here we go. (bean clacking) (bean twanging) - [Announcer] Bean!
(bean rattling) (bean twanging) (bean clacking) - Shut up!
- Bean! (bean rattling) (bean twanging) - Be quiet!
- Bean! (bean rattling) (bean twanging) - It's all nothing.
- Bean! (bean rattling) (bean clacking)
(bean twanging) And it happened.
- Bean! (bean clacking) (Mac gasping) - Bitch, first try. - [Announcer] Mighty Beanz! - We ballin'. What the fuck am I gonna
do with all these Beanz? (lip-trilling) I'm done, I need to cook dinner. These are the Mighty Beanz. My initial review, this is
not worth it anymore, girl. Maybe in 2002 when they
were fresh and new. I would've been popping
all up in my classroom, rolling them around, girl, flipping 'em off into the
distance, I don't know. Or I'll be swallowing and
choking on 'em, bitch. I don't fucking know. I don't know myself. I'll probably be swallowing
and choking on them actually. I know myself. Shout out to @PixelDaDragon and @emedamage for retweeting my last video on Twitter. Comment down below what childhood toy or toy that you always
wanted from your childhood. Do you want to know if
it was worth it or not? Maybe I'll review it 'cause I'm probably
gonna do tech decks next, but I don't know 'cause I've never gotten into those shits at all. I did not care about those shits. I thought they were so hetero. Period, that's it. That's all. (lip-trilling) Also, my Japan trip is still going on. I'm going to Japan in August. August 12, seven-day period. You are free to join me if you want to. There'll be a link in the
description down below. It is $3,100 plus your airfare, so you don't have to go. (laughing) But if you wanna come, come. Let's do it together. We're gonna adventure and
eat a lot of good food. But anyways, my name is Mac, and don't forget to like, comment, share and subscribing, bye! - [Crowd] Ooh!
