A pint-sized burglar who first appeared in March 1971 and was one of the first villains on the commercials. He was dressed in a black-and-white hooped shirt and pants, a red cape, a wide-brimmed hat, and red gloves. His primary object of theft was [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamburger hamburgers], hence his name. The character, like Grimace, started out as a villain, only he was old, had a long nose, gray hair, and was called the Lone Jogger in some 1970s commercials, sporting a shirt that said "Lone Jogger". Hamburglar spoke in gibberish which was often translated by Captain Crook. He was revised in 1985, when his look changed from a trollish old man to a red-head Dennis the Menace-type child who spoke and wore a shorter-brimmed hat and a black cape with yellow on the inside. His previously-unintelligible muttering was now the familiar "robble robble." In "The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald," he took on a new, sporty appearance wearing green goggles, a leather jacket, striped shirt, shorts and sneakers. He loved playing tricks on his friends and still loved burgers. The last appearances of Hamburglar on television were prime time commercials promoting the dollar menu. Hamburglar was voiced by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_Morris Howard Morris] in most commercials, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Adler Charlie Adler] in some 1980s commercials and "The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald"; and [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Carl_W._Wolfe&action=edit&redlink=1 Carl W.
