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.
My Happy Meal toy history:
I have shared in the past how when we started watching kids movies on DVD, when my son was old enough, we also found that the stores no longer carried any toys for these older movies. What kind of a parent would I be if I did not get the toys related to these movies? That is when my ebay happy meal toy addiction started.
Not only did I start buying mass quantities of these collections, but I soon discovered these happy meal toys were amazing! (Just check out the old Inspector Gadget set.) Fast forward to now, I will not open these Skylander happy meal toys, I will not share them with my son, they will all go in a ziploc bag, and into my collection! I am now the collector, especially since we are huge fans of the Skylander franchise!
Disclosure: We received the set of Skylander happy meal toys that hit the shelves today! No other compensation was received. All opinions are always 100% honest and our own.
