McDonalds Toys... again.


Twilight The Creator

Recommended Posts

Hmm...I may have to look into this.  I am unable to resist anything Pinkie Pie (except for the toothbrush).  It will take everything I have confidence wise to walk into my local mcdonalds and ask for one.  I might pretend I have a daughter lol.  

 

Sucks about AJ, but she seems to get the short end of the stick a lot. That tends to make AJ stuff more special for me since there's not as much of her stuff.  And maybe I'm wrong but isn't Scratch more popular among bronies than with kids?  Could it be a nod to us?  (sorry if that was already mentioned.  I didn't read page 2 cause it's late and well I didn't want to).

I know I am a major stick in the mud for even butting in on this, but I am disappoint that Vinyl Scratch gets a toy and Applejack is nowhere to be seen. For me personally, I feel like whenever a set of Pony merchandise doesn't include one or more of its main characters, the set feels pointless. Where's the emphasis on friendship? Why can't they honor the group dynamic of the Mane Six and make sure that they all are included? Especially since the last two McDonalds MLP toy sets included Applejack. :okiedokielokie:

 

Truthfully, these figures don't seem that appealing to begin with and I simply have no use for them other than to have them sit around and take up space. Consequently, I won't be buying these toys. No AJ? No buy. Funko has yet to release an Applejack figure. Think I bought any of the other pony toys released so far? Nuh-uh. Build-a-Bear has pony plushies? That's awesome, but until they release an Applejack one, I'm not budging. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

It has been rumored for a while on the internet for those who keep up on EQD. Well, for those of you who don't know though, the idea was MLP toys were finally gonna come to US McDonalds (cuz it seems to me every country got to have them but US). Well, I actually work there, so I get special info and stuff, and I found that the next toy after this Peabody thingy one for girls toys are in fact My Little Pony! Best part is, for those who don't like to eat at McDonalds, you DO NOT have to buy any food to get the toys when they come out. You can buy toys separate for somewhere between 1-2 dollars I believe (I don't know the exact price cuz I never buy them). But I'm gonna be getting all of them, so just thought I'd alert all those collectors out there. Happy Hunting!

Well if I can I might try for the pinkie one, though happy meals are completely random with what toy you get. To be honest, when I got happy meals as a kid, I would either break the toy really fast, or just throw it away because it's a cheap plastic figure.

Um... The US McDonald's had MLP toys a couple of years back. I have them. lol

 

It's nice to know that these ones are different, though.

Just a reminder that this will be the second appearance of Happy Meal toys to McDonalds if they are coming. The first batch came out in early 2012.

Hey PinkiePieJr, just letting you know that I merged the topic you made about the new McDonald's MLP toys with the one we already had here in Pony Merchandise. Thanks for your understanding. :)

 

Anyway, I can't believe they forgot Applejack! :okiedokielokie:

Can't say I'm too terribly interested in these overall though. :P

(\^3^/) !!! I think I have some non-brony friends that will eat the happy meals for me ( don't like MacDonald's ,but my favorte book is written by a George MacDonald :blink: ) so I can get the toys. What approach shouls I use? A ) "Uhm... I'd like a happy meal..... with the pony toy.." B ) "Yes, I would like several happy meals with the girls toy good sir." Or C ) "I need three of every pony toy! Now take my money!"


I know there's a place you walked
Where love falls from the trees
My heart is like a broken cup
I only feel right on my knees.
I spit out like a sewer hole
Yet still receive your kiss
How can I measure up to anyone now
After such a love as this?

Actually, this is the third time they've released MLP toys.  That picture is the first, and the comb fob brushables are the second iteration.

 

The funny thing is, your link shows this.  There's the first generation of MLP toys in 2011 (with Brazil getting it's own special set, apparently), and then the second were released in 2012.

At McDonald's? Not really. I'll get a fish sandwich every now and then, but otherwise not a lot of options.

 

Doesn't matter though, cause I'm pretty sure you can buy the toys separate from the Happy Meal.

I have always been curious why some people cut meat out of their diet entirely. I am in no way trying to discriminate vegetarians, I am just curious if the decision is do to diet and how ''fatty'' meat can be or if its because some don't like the thought that they are eating a animal. Anyway, you could always buy the kids meal and either throw away the burger or you could give it away to another family member if all you want is the toy.

Is this releasing in the uk as well or only America?

Depending on the McDonald's, all the one's I've ever been to sell the toys for $3.99

 

I asked why are they so expensive, and the clerk simply said that they want people to buy the food for the toy, not just the toy, because then they lose out on it.

 

They aren't worth that much...plus there has to be meat free options, you just have to ask (even if you get a crap ton of apples :P )

For me it's about not hurting animals. I'm pretty much not a health food nut at all.

 

I can't really think of any friends or family I could drag to McDonald's for a happy meal just to get a toy. And, to me, throwing away the hamburger away would be wasteful and inconsiderate to the cow that had to die for it.

 

Beyond that, I think we're treading into massive derail territory.

 

But, anywho I've got other options so it's all kind of moot.
