I think the basic Donatello and Michelangelo are the best toys they have (in the line). They also have the best action feature!

Happened to me at the second one I went to. That was always my biggest problem with the boy/girl toy happy meals.

There was also the one that didn't put in a toy at all.

Luckily I'd noticed both times before I'd gone too far

IKR? I remember a long time ago, they gave me a barbie toy in a happy meal and I asked if there were any boys toys left, and they said something like "Eh, No. No. We have no boys toys left" even though I could see them right behind the counter XD

All you have to do is specify that you would like a boy toy if they refuse to oblige then they arent doing their job and you should ask to speak with a manager, i've given away numerous toys for my employees ignorance.

and as for them having a tmnt under 3 toy we dont have one, we usually only have basic ronald mcdonald toys.

I went to McDonalds today and grabbed two "Boys" happy meals and specifies the TMNT toys. I got home and one had a "Mushi Pet" thing and the other was an Avatar horse. No word of a lie, an Avatar toy one day after the TMNT promo started (and was featured on the menu). Geez...

The "Moshi Monsters" toy is apart of the girls half of the TMNT/Moshi Monsters promotion, so for that they just didn't listen to you, couldn't tell the difference, or just grabbed the first toy they saw. As for the "Avatar Horse" I have no idea what that's all about. Also, what do you mean that it was featured on the menu?

Does the avatar toy look like this?

If so, then that's very strange because the avatar toys were in mcdonald's in 2009...IDK, I guess they had some leftover? Anyway, that really stinks.

If you're going to McDonald's for the purpose of getting the toy, why don't you verify that you got what you want before you leave? I've read multiple reports of people getting the wrong toy and I really just don't get it.

You know they sell the toys by themselves without a happy meal. I just walk in and tell them I want to buy the ninja turtles happy meal toys, and ask which ones they have right now. Although, now the Mcrib is back and its hard to not get one.

Sounds like I'm getting some Happy Meals in the future. I'll try to be stealthy and get my usual combo, then add a Happy Meal on the si....NO! I must carry the full burden of being a TMNT fan. Gimme the freaking meal, and gimme the freaking toy!

Yeah, that's the one. I should have checked but the drive-though way jammed and I just pulled away without thinking about it. I was just happy to survive the parking lot without getting hit. I'll know for the next time.

Yeah, I noticed this as Mom and I were waiting for our order when we got McDonald's yesterday. If I had known that there were Turtles toys, I would have gotten a Happy Meal.

you can buy the toys by themselves. i got both mikeys for a buck.62 each. what sucks is that i went to 2 different mickey deez and they both only had mikeys. i asked if they ran out or were going to recieve different ones at a later time and both managers told me they only get sent one shipment for the time the promotions going on and its random which toys they get. that doesn't make sense to me at all, but like i said 2 different ones in two totally different parts of town told me that.
