What happened to Grimace, Birdy and those weird hair monsters from McDonalds?

Does anyone even remember them? What about the hair monsters? They looked like little hairballs with feet and eyes, used to feature in a lot of happy meal toys... you know?What happened to Grimace, Birdy and those weird hair monsters from McDonalds?
The hairballs were called the Fry Kids, but they had several names over the years including "goblins" because the "gobbled up french fries"

Pretty much all of those characters died out - they were just part of advertising and their advertising campaign changes over time.

It is more popular to co-brand happy meal toys with TV and movie characters than to create their own characters...so that is why you don't see them anymore.What happened to Grimace, Birdy and those weird hair monsters from McDonalds?
Yes, I remember them from when I was a kid!
