new mcdonalds toys

[installerray]

did anyone else see these yet? there are 8 " different " toys , each of the 4 turtles twice. once with a weapon and once with a little bullsh&t thing.no casey or splinter. how lame. check it out at happymeal.com

[bmxbandit]

they look pretty good. i'll be collecting them all for sure! :)

[Jester]

Um, I'm still getting the Robo-pets and My Little Pony.

EDIT: Found them...:P

[Kunoichi_Haruko]

Neato!

I want Don's. :)

[discordiatookie]

Holy crap them's some weird ass lookin plastrons!!!

[VaughnMichael]

ok I stand corrected all those times I said 2k3 toys where as bad as happymeal toys...I didn't think some things could get worse but they did..
good lord:o I'm adding my vote for these as the ugliest tmnt promotional toys ever!

[Raph's Girl]

I am unsure if those are available at any of the McDonald's near me...but I'm gonna make a full day of TMNT shopping on the 23rd so I'll be going to a couple McDonald's in the area. The one at the Tacoma Mall I get a discount on cuz Im a member of the mall's kid's club thing. I just show my kids club card and I get a hamburger happymeal for only 99 cents! :evilgrin:

[Wildcat]

Hmmm...guess I'm the only one who likes them.......for a happy meal toy they sure do have a good likeness of there movie-counterparts....youd think they would be cheap badly colored pieces of plastic....but they look good,surprisingly.

I'll be sure to get them.....well the ones with posable arms.

[Katie]

Those "praying ones" (i know they aren't praying...but that's the closest word I have to describe that) look wierd...but the action ones don't look that bad :)

God...that means I have to choke down a McD's burger :dead: or my pooch will anyway :P

[Raph's Girl]

God...that means I have to choke down a McD's burger :dead: or my pooch will anyway :P

Or you can do the smart thing and buy the toy without having to buy a happy meal. They allow you to do that.

[Jo Dawn]

I wants them! Unfortunately, I never eat McDonalds, and now I literally can't, sooo...

Man, I wish I knew someone that worked there, like I used to.

[Katie]

Or you can do the smart thing and buy the toy without having to buy a happy meal. They allow you to do that.

hmmm...did not know that.


Well...my puppy likes going out in the car....and she loves getting a plain (just meat and bun) burger.....so I suppose I can buy a happy meal for my "kid"

[installerray]

you can always get the nuggets instead of the burger. they are the only good thing at mcdonalds anyway. in the begining when the movie was 1st announced i was praying that wendys would have the toys. Wendys is with out a doubt the best fast food.

Wendys???!!!..........why would they even get the toys in the first place.......we all know that McDonalds get the best and top of the line franchises for thier happy meals.......Burger King is second.

[JohnnyFoxDarko]

I wanna get the first 4. I don't get the point to having the other four (with launching...things.)
I like how they explained them as "-slimmer and more action packed" turtles.

[installerray]

Wendys???!!!..........why would they even get the toys in the first place.......we all know that McDonalds get the best and top of the line franchises for thier happy meals.......Burger King is second.

why this may be true and mcdonalds is a much better base for marketing, im simply saying that wendys has the best fast food.

[Cascadia]

Oh well...my closest McDonalds is 30 miles away.

[Roseangelo]

I got the Leonardo (with sword) today at the movie premiere - it's VERY nice and worth a trip to McDonalds. The other ones (without weapons) look weird and apparently the shell opens up (as I observed from a distance).

[Wildcat]

why this may be true and mcdonalds is a much better base for marketing, im simply saying that wendys has the best fast food.

OH...well I myself like McDonalds,Burger King and Jack in the Box.......I don't have a Wendys in my town....so thats why I never eat it,I don't have a Jack in the Box either...but when I go out of town I ususally pick "Jack".

[Kunoichi_Haruko]

I worked at Wendy's a few years ago. Their nuggets pwned all back then, and the Junior Bacon Cheeseburger = YUM.

However, McD's has definitely improved their nuggets; I daresay they give ol' Wendy a run for her money...

[Masked Ninja]

Haharr. I may have to find a Mickey D's.

Not bad for McDonald's toys... looks like they're even different colors of green! I'd be liable to get one, just 'cuz. I wonder how long this promotion will go...

And yeah, they started selling the toys by themselves during that Teenie Beanie craze, I think. You remember how insane that was? It was to stop people from buying 20 happy meals, taking the toys out, and pitching the food. Because lots of people were idiots. :tpizza:

[Raph's Girl]

Well I think the reason Mcdonald's got the movie toys is cuz they were the ones who got the movie toys for the previous films. Heck I still have a Donatello pin I got in a Happy Meal from 1990! :lol: And yes Im wearing it on the 23rd... actually wore it today at work as my St. Patrick's Day green. :P

[Roseangelo]

Actually, McDonald's has never had the TMNT toys in the past. Not in the US, at least. Within the last year there was a 2K3 promo in the UK.

[Ra]

Same here in Australia. We had some girl/boy happy meal with something like "My Little Pony" or these cool looking TMNT toys that flipped or something like that. It looked cool, but I'm kinda off McDonalds now ever since I found out that Hungry Jacks (ie Burger King) is much better in terms of burgers and products.

[Wildcat]

Burger King had TMNT toys back when the 2K3 series started........but they were nothing like these.....they were cheap mostly,there was a nice one of Raph on a motorcycle but it was painted very badly,the rest were just cheap plastic doo-dads and what-nots........needless to say I never got any of them.

Ooh! I have the Raph on a motorcycle! My mom actually got it for me. :lol: The one I have wasn't painted badly.

we dont have jack in the box here in jersey, well not that ive ever seen or heard of.

[Wildcat]

Thats good...from what I remember of it,it didn't have alot of detail....plus it didn't really do anything special.......what does it do?

[METALHEAD]

I LIKE THEM! they remind me of the burger king tmnt toys---thank god i can chose mcnuggets! i'm pretty much got it covered----theyre gonna be m ine! woot!:D

[Raph's Girl]

Thats good...from what I remember of it,it didn't have alot of detail....plus it didn't really do anything special.......what does it do?

It's a wind up type thing. You move it backwards and the back wheel cranks up, then you let it fly.... the back wheel also lights up.

[CudleyCowlick]

They don't look great to me, but I won't really be able to tell until I've actually seen one, last I checked we still had those robo-things here near the east coast. I don't know what they are but they look a lot cooler in the commercials than what I've seen about the TMNT toys so far.

[JetsAndHeels]

I haven't seen them around here yet, but I check daily. Hopefully it will be anyday now since the movie is about to hit.

[Wildcat]

It's a wind up type thing. You move it backwards and the back wheel cranks up, then you let it fly.... the back wheel also lights up.

OH ok...I know what your talking about

[Roseangelo]

Here's one of the Leo toys:

good pic they don't look that bad actully besides that kingdomhearts sword he's got there :lol:

[Ra]

Oh, shush. You will anger the rabid fan girl inside of me :P

Seriously though, that katana of his isn't really thin. Heck, it looks more like a knight's sword than a ninja sword. Other than that, the colors look okay, though the green is a little to bright. The anatomy looks pretty spot on, too.

lol I'm a fan of kingdome hearts and well the sword does look more like it was based off of a butter knife than anything :lol:

[installerray]

guys on ebay have the complete sets already. cheapest is 17 total. so lets do the math ... happy meal is about $4 ( not exactly sure ) times 8 to get all of them ( if your lucky ) is 32 bucks and you have all that sh*tty food. ebay seems like the way to go

Nah....I'm going with McDonalds....I like there food....and apperntly millions others do to:P ...besides I managed to get every peice if Inspector Gadget's body back in '99. 4 turtles shouldn't be that hard.

[Roseangelo]

I plan on buying a Happy Meal and asking to buy whatever additional toys they have individually. Shouldn't cost too much.

[BigApple3AM]

These toys are awesome. I remember dreaming back in the day that mcdonalds would do cool turtle toys, I dunno why, I guess I wanted turtles to go with my mcdonald's movie power rangers... and it's finally happened! (though the power rangers are long gone, heh)

So I think I'll just ask to buy all the toys individually and if I have to buy some food I'll toss it or give it to a family member. But I'm definitely going to get a shamrock shake and call it a mutagen shake, who's with me? :D

[Buslady]

I havent seen ANY TMNT movie tie in toys at McDs yet...

Ivey gave me her extra Raph though ^.^

[sdp]

buying just the toys and not the meal is stupid as they sell them very expensive, for about 30 cents more you get a soda, fries and a hamburger. they aren't that bad.

Well at least they aren't stupid gimmicks, the thing when the toys have stupid gimmicks they are either hit or miss.

[Ninjinister]

I've not seen them advertise thus far. Perhaps they are awaiting the 23rd?

I've changed my eating style tremendously so I'd hardly call it stupid. Burger/Nuggets are a no because I'm vegetarian, I recently gave up soda because it's bad for your bones/teeth but before that I only drank diet because regular is just empty calories, and mcdonald's fries have never done anything for me, even when I was a kid. Mcdonalds food doesn't have a lot of options, it's either more meat or more fat. I'm also training to be a marathon runner so I think I'll pass... But if you lived by me you'd be eating free for a couple weeks ;)

[The Terror of Death]

McDonalds could have done better than this. Can you even move their arms and legs?

[Kunoichi_Haruko]

The four that are in various poses can move their arms (kind of, you have to squeeze an arm or leg toget the toy to move). The ones with their arms crossed don't move their arms & legs, but their shell opens.

[Scavenger]

Atleast it isn't as bad as the Transformers Armada Happy Meals (In US it was available at BK, but in Europe it was available in MC D's. )

[JetsAndHeels]

I finally scored a couple of these toys...was in walmart getting some spidey 3 figures and i checked the mcdonalds inside the store. Sure enough they had donnie and raph so i got those.

[Roseangelo]

We've picked up the Mike and Leo "action" figures and the Raph w/ Nightwatcher inside this weekend. The ones with the shells that open are pretty lame, but I like the ones with the action features.

[Blade Raider]

So, the ones with their arms crossed have figures inside? Also, what type of action features?

[GK Punk]

I just got the Leo that swings his sword today. Not bad for a Happy meal toy, I do have to say.

[Time Mistress]

I found out about these as soon as my best friend and I got done seeing the new movie. Her mom was babysitting the her neighbor's kids and they had stopped by Mickey D's. The two girls got the Oz toys, but the boy got action Leo. I stopped by Mickey D's latter that night and and got action Mike in my happy meal. They're pretty decent for happy meal toys. Mike and Raph don't have their weapons though for some weird reason, but Leo and Don do. The "action feature" is that their arms move and waiste twists when you squeeze their legs together.

[JetsAndHeels]

I scored Leo and Mikey tonight while at another WM.

[TheAnimatedSeries]

Those look dope to me, but what makes a Happy Meal is whether or not it comes in a box or a stupid bag. Bags dont make me happy.

[Tortuga Joe]

I snagged the Leo and Mike toys as well on Friday after seeing the film. They're pretty sweet. And there were totally a bunch of kids in the McDonald's pinching the toy's legs together and swinging Leo's sword/Mikey's fists at one another. It was awesome.

[Jester]

I snagged the action feature Leo and Mikey....I plan to take a picture of them soon...with Leatherhead.

[Kunoichi_Haruko]

Meh. I got "praying" Don today. :ohwell:

[Roseangelo]

Poor Don didn't do anything in the movie that they could mold into a silly mini figure to stick inside the "praying" toy.

I've got the first four toys... still hunting for the last four.

[Rockzero]

Managed to pick up Leo and Mikey myself.

No nunchucks for Mikey made me a sad panda. :(

[CudleyCowlick]

Those look dope to me, but what makes a Happy Meal is whether or not it comes in a box or a stupid bag. Bags dont make me happy.

ahahahahahahahahahaha... *ahem*... I second that.

[gobo]

Are they planning on tearing through all 8 in just four weeks, or no?

[Rockzero]

Are they planning on tearing through all 8 in just four weeks, or no?

I'm thinking so. Between my friends and myself we've managed to see Leo and Mike from the actual figure ones, and Don from the back-opening ones.

One of my friends' brother works at McDs and said it's just a matter of how quick they run out of the toys from one box and open another.

[installerray]

just got all 8 of them today in the mail from ebay. all 8 for 17$ , thats with shipping ,thats cheaper than buying the meals and i dont have to subject me and my kid to that horrible cr*p they call food ( WENDYS RULES) and no hassle of having to go to a mcdonalds time after time going nuts trying to get them all. all hail the mighty franchise ( lots of bowing going on )

[Jester]

Went to McDonald's today for lunch and picked up Donnie (all that's left is action feature Raph, cause I don't care about the "praying" figures). When I drove up to the pickup window, the kid there noticed my old school TMNT shirt, and asked, "Big Turtle fan, eh?" I said, "Yeah, possibly even too much." we chuckled and he told me to have a good day...hope he ment it...:P

[Drtooth]

I got Action Mikey and Action Leo. They are my first pices of TMNT movie merchandise... Mainly cuz I can't afford the action figures right now, they don't have the sepperate mini figurines yet, and I can't find that Damn Air Haed TMNT candy yet (which I was planning to buy as a movie snack).

Funny thing is, I almost didn't even know. I wasn't on this site for a while, and they didn't have the signs up. I even ordered a small nuggets (by far the best thing on the McD's menu) and all of the sudden, I turned my head and saw the TMNT bag and had to cancel my order as fast as I could. I was pretty much flabberghasted that McD's would have it. I would have thought BK, since they did all those TMNT promotions in the past. They have Spongebob. Wendy's wouldn't have it. They still Have Fairly Oddparents.

Now, I want to keep this as a discussion about the toys, and not the entire obvious thing about conspiracy theories about The Hamburgler building a rayguy that makes thin people morbidly obese, like all other Fast Food conversations usually stear towards. Plus, I would rather have an Outback Burger than one of those, but then again, they cost 8 bucks a pop, and don't come with miniaction figures.

I think they toys are pretty cool. If Wendy's released them, they would have 2 figural toys, one of those cheap pinball games and some paper product (board game, Puzzle etc.). I will say these are the best TMNT kid meal toys ever, since the BK ones were pretty off, besides Raph (but I got the whole series anyway).

So what is the deal with the opening shells? What's in them?

[Jo Dawn]

Are they planning on tearing through all 8 in just four weeks, or no?

Yeah... Though our McD's said three.

My mom bought me the two figs they had today, Leo and Mike. She got me all excited, because she slipped up and said 'They had Leonardo.. and Dona-no wait! Michaelangelo.' I got all excited, I thought I'd be getting my two favorites, heh.

Oh well... Guess I have to wait until next week.

[Drtooth]

BTW, did anyone see what the next Kids Meal prize is? American Idol.... wow! Another way for McD's food to be unappitizing!

[Kunoichi_Haruko]

I did see that...how is that going to work out??? A Paula Abdul doll, complete with a bottle of prescription painkillers?

Seriously, though, will this be the first time McDonald's has been used as a promotional tool for a reality TV show?

[Roseangelo]

Seriously, though, will this be the first time McDonald's has been used as a promotional tool for a reality TV show?

Actually, I want to say that this is not American Idol's first fast food tie-in, although I don't recall if it was with McDonald's before or not. I think the toys were cheap plastic microphones and crap like that.

However, if the toy WAS Randy, Paula, and Simon "action" figures, I might have to go to McD's for a few more weeks. :P

I just need two more of the TMNT toys.. the last two Mike and Leo figures with the opening shells.

[soccerstud652]

Since my McD's is so random with the toys, I just bought them off eBay for $17, not a bad deal since I don't have to do any of the work to get them. I'll post detailed pics (w/ size comparison to real toys) when the arrive next week!

[Rockzero]

I think if I have to force down any more chicken nuggets or fries I'm going to throw up for a year. :dead: :dead: :dead:

I have now ended up with...

*6* Leonardo action feature.
and
*7* Michelangelo action feature.

My luck is horrid.

Think I may eBay.

[Roseangelo]

Dude, you should be asking about which toy they have BEFORE you buy food!!!

[soccerstud652]

Also, you can buy the toy alone for $1.00. At least at my McD's.

[Rockzero]

Well, I usually just grab it on the way to and from work, cuz I gotta eat either way.

But yeah it didn't even dawn on me to ask.

And I had no idea you could get the toys seperate for a buck.

:goofygri: :goofygri: :goofygri:

Lesson learned!

EDIT: And had I read all of the earlier posts, I would have known it well before hand. Man I gotta work on that...

[Kunoichi_Haruko]

At least you got a TMNT toy. Apparently the McD's near my house is behind in the toy department. My stepdad was going on a McDonald's run, so I asked him to bring me a Mighty Kids Meal, with the "boy" toy (assuming, of course, I'd get a turtle). Instead, this is what came out of my bag:

http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y296/cj_shutterbug/TMNT/IMG_0695.jpg


His name is Dylan. And I am not pleased with him... :x

[soccerstud652]

Got 4 from McDonald's today, they were $2.16 each. I got #'s 5, 6, 7, 8.

I also got my complete set off of eBay today as well. Since I have doubles of 5-8, I would be willing to ship them to anyone who needs them for $2 +shipping ($2.00 shipping for the all 4).

[Kunoichi_Haruko]

Ahhh... the McDonald's gods have decided to make up for that terrible error three days ago. I got Don with the Bo today. Life is good. :) :lol:

[odupianist]

heeeeeeeeeey someone from Richmond. I'm in Norfolk. haha. totally random I know.

[Kunoichi_Haruko]

Hey, someone else from VA. Wonderful :D! :waves: My cousin used to live in Norfolk.

[Drtooth]

His name is Dylan. And I am not pleased with him...

Appears you got stuck with last years old left over unwanted Doogal toys.

Last week I got Shell Launch Raph and Don. I gotta admit, they're pretty keen... especially since a tiny little Nightwatcher popped out of Raph. It's 2 toys in 1!

[the fixer]

The TMNT Happy Meal toys still haven't been released out here in Belgium...
We still have the Bionicle/Hello Kitty toys.
I fear they'll be skipped out here all together.

I just sent a mail to McDonald's Belgium for some info...
To my knowledge, it's the first time that Happy Meal toys based on an animated feature film aren't released in Belgium.

As if the movie isn't badly promoted enough already...:(

[ToTheNines]

I can't seem to find the turtles that punch and kick, just the shell droppin dudes.

[twigs232]

The first four are actually pretty cool, I want them LOL!!!!!!!!!!!

[JetsAndHeels]

I just need Raph and Mikey in the non-shell dropping versions. I am good on everything else.

[Roseangelo]

Finally got the last of the eight yesterday - Yay! And I'm done with McDonalds for about five years... ugh!

[TheShowstoppa]

Funny thing is... I've had these for a few weeks now. I just went straight to the McDonald's here in my town, drove up to the window, said I wanted them... POOF! I got 16 figures (doubles of each of the 8). Cool thing was... it was only $17 to get them. :-D I love being sneaky like that!

[Swany]

My friend said she is just gonna get me them, 'cause she works in McDs.

I just have Leo so far, with awsome NINJA WORKOUT ACTION! Tighten up those glutes!

It stands on top of the PS2 with everyother McD toy, and my Stewie Griffin.

[Jo Dawn]

Yeah, you don't gotta eat McD's to get the toys, lol. We've been there alot, since my mom's getting the Wizard of Oz toys and I'm getting the TMNT stuff.

[HalfcourtGame]

I got all 8 in the mail yesterday. I just bought them on Ebay for $15 shipped to avoid the hassle. I'm actually pretty impressed for Happy Meal toys (action figure Mike needed some 'chucks though):tthumbsd:

So what is the deal with the opening shells? What's in them?

I think that people are just hating on the "praying" figures. I kinda like them. Raph has a Nightwatcher that rolls out of him, Leo has a hang gliding Leo, Mike has a skating Mike, and Don got shafted and has the monkey monster on a garbage truck. Don is the coolest action figure though so it evens out.

[Raph's Girl]

I was finally able to go to McDonald's today. I hardly ever go to a fast food chain but meh...when there's stuff I want I just go for it. Knowing full well that the figs would be around till April 19th I wasn't too much in a hurry to head on over. And boy are the folks there fraking anal. You have to SPECIFY what kind of happy meal you want since they're also giving out these stupid looking Wizard of Oz things.

Thankfully there was a family ahead of me so I quickly learned to order "a happy meal for boy". :roll:

Ended up with the Storage shell Michelangelo thingy that has another Michelangelo inside the shell. Weird....

[JetsAndHeels]

Well I stopped by McDonald's on my way home tonight to grab a happy meal...I tell them I want the boy's meal and I get a Yoshi toy from the nintendo series. I was too far down the road to turn around but I would have tried to exchange it for a TMNT toy. :(

[TheAnimatedSeries]

I got a Raph figure and the weird Michelangelo that has a Michelangelo inside him for some weird hidden purpose that I guess only he knows about.

The bag sucked though, its only two sides TMNT, two sides The Wizard of Oz. However, I can still confirm at left a 51% increase in my happiness.
