Where art thou Arch Deluxe??

I'm not sure what the deal has been lately, but I have been craving one of those Arch Deluxe sandwiches that McDonalds discontinued back in the 90's.
This was part of some new 'adult menu' (no, not the *brownchickenbrowncow* kind of "adult") designed by an executive chef which McDonald's introduced along with a massive ad campaign. Three sandwiches were released, a chicken, large fish, and the flagship: Arch Deluxe. All of which were advertised as cartering to an older audience. I don't know if that was actually the case, because I loved the heck out of that sandwich. When the line was discontinued, the chicken and fish sandwiches morphed into offerings McD's still currently sells, however the Arch Deluxe's fate was not to be so transitional. They simply killed it.
This was like no other McD's sandwich I have ever had. Here was the layout:

The peppercorn bacon, sauce, and bun made this thing shine. I swear, I'd yell obscenities at BHL in Biscuitville (Yes, thats my new thing for a while) for another shot at one of these, it was so good.
Anyone else out there have fond memories of this?
