wow, those actually look really good for McD's toys. And two points of articulation. Nice.

So they "transform" and are small and cute and look suprisingly accurate? I'm in the mood for some McDonald's! I only wish they were out now in time for luch today!

Haha, this optimus is cute. He could use more paint, but still, cool.

Megadton is kinda awkward, and i have no idea how he could transform.

This has to be an antecipated April's fools joke. :P They look too good to be comming from Happy Meals. Looks like I'm going to have to buy a few happy meals if they ever come to Portugal :P . Anyway, I doubt they will...

I... MUST... HAVE... MCDONALD'S... MEGATRON =P~ I like Optimus as well, but I'm more of a Decepticon guy :)

Nice, I work there so I can pick these up easy. Unfortunatley, our next toy is American Idol so I wouldn't expect to see these until the rest of the Animated line comes out :-(

These honestly look like Legends class quality figures. They're just a bit underarticulated.

Too bad right know McDonalds is running a Disney Pirate/Princess thing. I wonder what McDonalds will run opisite the Transformers (as I see it being a part of a boy/girl promo again)

That's about the size I want them to be too. It will hold me over until whenever we get Robot Heroes TF:A figures.

McDonald's has been coming out with some impresive kid's meal toys. I would love to know when in the USA this comes out.

after the crap BK put out for the movie, it's really no suprise TF went crawling back to McD's; when kids get Transformers, they want them to TRANSFORM.

$3.00 for a cheeseburger happy meal and a Tf toy! Looks like i'll be eating happy meals when they come out. They look pretty good too!

I have to say MD does do a good job with transformers and they really do transform unlike the movie toys.

Wow...i think those have more articulation than half of G1...:-P

I honestly thought Disney had quit licensing MCD for happy meals, since the House of the Mouse didn't want to be associated with obesitas. So they're still making Disney Happy Meals?

They look pretty decent for what they are. Megatron's a bit rubbish though.

I would throw something heavy at you........




.........but you're kinda right! :lol:



The Prime one doesn't look THAT bad, for a POS Happy Meal toy.....


...but the Megatron is just downright craptastic! :SICK:

Since I work in the same building as a McD's, I will end up getting them all in the long run..and will not have to eat that HORRID travesty they call "food"....They will stay in their little Happy Meal Baggies That Stink Like Fake Cheeseburgers!

Megatron is kinda awkward, and i have no idea how he could transform.


Looks like he will lay down on his tummy and his arms will flip back. Then his blades will be arranged. So he'll look like a helicopter from the top, but flying armless Megs from below.

Dont tell me people are considering buying a happy meal for these figures or worse, Steal the figures away from there kids happy meals. I love transformers but i would never want to buy a happy meal for these cheap looking figures. I can picture someone going to the drivethrough and ordering a happy meal only to pull up to the window and being alone in there car with no kids. #-o

It sure helps to be friends with McD's employees! I get all the toys for free and do not have to choke down that NASTY food! :DANCE: :lol:

You can buy them alone, you know, prob. a buck and change each. That's how I got all the Burger King TFs, they were a little over $1 each.

These looks cool, judging form Prime and Meg. Can't wait. No ideas yet on the timing?

FWIW, I happen to like McD's burgers...
