2014 Happy Meal (US) [CLOSED]
JetVac96 Yellow Sparx Gems: 1973
#1 Posted: 14:58:45 07/03/2014 | Topic Creator
New Swap Force Happy Meal toys are coming to McDonalds! (Also with MLP FIM for all the fellow Bronies out there). Set includes Wash Buckler, Free Ranger, Magna Charge, Hyper Beam Prism Break, Eruptor, Freeze Blade, Rattle Shake, and a Chompy. Oddly no Magic or Life Skylander (Star Strike would have been awesome!).

http://www.happymeal.com/en_US/index.html#/Toys

Toys will start Friday March 28 and run while supplies last until April 2.

Quick cut and paste of it. Overall looks nice for mcdonalds toys. Rattle Snake prob shoots that snake, eruptor/prism break prob glows, free ranger could be a spinning top, and wash buckler may have a spring in him to make him use his sword. They are the "next happy meal", so i guess by april 1st?.


EDIT: Made Picture smaller.

Here's hoping the UK bother to release them this time. For the past couple of years, 'educational' items have been all the rage over here.

Besides a Magic Skylander they didn't make a Life Skylander as well, StinkBomb would have been perfect!

#10 Posted: 19:37:46 07/03/2014
oh my gosh that chompie. Nnnggghh
If I had to make a guess, I'd say Washy and Freeze Blade both have an "action", Free Ranger and Magna look like they're tops, Eruptor and Prism are both light ups leaving Rattles to "launch" a projectile. I'd be willing to bet that the Chompy shoots something out as well. maybe the eyes? Maybe something from the mouth?

Since the Mr. Peabody ones just came out, I'd assume we'll see these in April then.

Pretty sure that the Chompy has a "bite action," and that Magna Charge shoots a plasma blast.

Anybody Stateside want to post a box of these over to England?
If we get a few people together it could be quite reasonable on postage as these are light.

Oop, you're right. I didn't notice that thing on Magna's arm.

Pretty cool stuff, wonder if they'll come with a coupon for SF too, like the ones last year did.

Omg...that link...just who made those??? They made Camo look like he was a dog or trying to howl...there's a zap which kinda makes me think of a centipede, and sunburn looks like a very ugly griffon. Whoever actually tries to buy those deserves to be fooled, they're that bad...

I'm glad they made some real toys for the happy meal! The glasses were silly....this though, makes so much more sense!

The My Little Pony ones and the Skylanders ones will be available at the same time (being, one aimed at girls, and one aimed at boys) whenever the Peabody and Sherman one ends (which is usually between 4-6 weeks from it starting)

MCDONALD'S BRINGS SKYLANDERS FANS EXCLUSIVE TOYS IN NEW, NATIONWIDE HAPPY MEAL PROGRAM

For the second consecutive year, Activision Publishing, Inc. and McDonald's USA LLC are teaming up to infuse a little bit of magic into every Happy Meal across the country with new Skylanders® collectible toys. From March 28-April 24, participating McDonald's restaurants in the United States and Puerto Rico will launch a new Skylanders Happy Meal featuring one of eight unique toys inspired by Skylanders SWAP Force™.

Participating McDonald's restaurants across the United States and Puerto Rico will offer customers who purchase a Happy Meal one of eight toys to add to their collections, each with a unique play feature, as well as coupons for $10 off the Skylanders SWAP Force Starter Pack and $1 off a Skylanders character.

The upcoming Happy Meal program includes figurines inspired by such fan-favorite Skylanders SWAP Force characters as Chompy, Eruptor, Free Ranger, Freeze Blade, Magna Charge, Prism Break, Rattle Shake and Wash Buckler, all of which are based on the $2 billion, award-winning video game and action figure toy line that pioneered the toys-to-life genre.

FYI

McDonald's in Wal Marts are getting an Enchanted Star Strike poster to hand out with every Happy Meal purchase. They are only getting 450 per store. Full size McDonald's will not be getting these.

Are there still actually McDs in Walmarts? Pretty much every single one in my area has converted it into a Subway. (although one has subway and Auntie Anne's pretzels so it's God Tier)

Well heck, I ask my dad if he knew and it looks like there may be one out here.
As a matter of fact, if you search for stores on Walmart's website, you can see what sort of amenities the individual store has and it lists if there's a McDonalds in the store. Oddly enough, McD's website is schwarbage and extremely unhelpful in this matter lol. If you go to the store locator and select "Show more options" you can search for stores with just McD inside of them. (although you have to remember to go back and select it each time you search)
