McDonalds Secret Customizable Watch

McDonalds has released quite possibly their best happy meal toys yet; the Hello Kitty watch series. I'm not a big fan of hello kitty, at all, but when I saw these watches, I saw an opportunity. So, I stole one from my four year old sister, and turned it into something fun and useful!

The requirements are really simple, and can be foraged from your catch-all drawer:

Hello Kitty McDonalds Watch (I used the square brown one because it best fits my tastes)
Craft knife
Superglue
Triangular head screwdriver (you can make your own! thanks to adrianmonk) or a pair of pliers with a triangular end that will fit into the screw.
Printout of a picture you like (more later)
Keychain mechanism (doesn't matter what type you use, I used a d clip and a plastic clip from my work badge, you could easily recycle an old keychain instead)

Unfortunately, they seem to have different toys in different countries. The current UK toys are small stuffed dogs.

This is one of the coolest simple projects I've seen in a long time. +5 Geek cred for appropriate use of Domo-kun.

5 stars, fav'd, and I'm going to be ordering a little girl happy meal the next time I go to McD's.

The watch may look awesome, but underneath it's still a cheap piece of giveaway crap. L
