'''Moonman''' was a mascot introduced by [[McDonald's]] restaurants in 1986, The only McDonald's advertising character not to appear in [http://mcdonalds.wikia.com/wiki/McDonaldland McDonaldland] commercials, he was intended to advertise McDonald's late night hours to adults. He had a crescent moon for a head, wore a suit and sunglasses, and was depicted as being a jazzy lounge singer.
