They might do eventually. The ones the UK had 4 months ago mainland Europe had about a year before.

Oh man, I have no money but I'll still buy all of these
I really liked their Pokemon Black and White toys, I got most of them. The new ones they had for XY were stupid though, they weren't figures, it was like this dumb little launcher game.

Is there a way to get these toys without the meal? Greasy food makes me nauseous.

Buy the meal. Give the food to the homeless.

"The Happy Meal is for a girl or a boy"
"For a 30 year old male please"
I hope these are coming to Canada too

I'll just wait and order the whole lot on ebay. Not worth the effort to go to McDonalds and order food in too small of a portion to be worth it.

When do these come out? The website only shows freakin How To Train Your Dragon 2...
Yeah, it seems Nintendo is going full in with licensing their IPs, and they're not stopping. They're creating a good base for the future, and I'm quite interested to see the "unexpected" IP licensing occasions mentioned by Iwata in the last Investor Meeting.
Now, I wonder if amiibos could be involved in the next future...

In the US? Whoa, thats a first. Can I just say though, the new mascot is terrifying?

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
How To Train Your Dragons 2 is currently at the forefront for the month of June; the following month will be when MK toys hits.

Oy, I've known about these for ages and couldn't say anything to anyone which is NOT my style. They're SOFA KING GOOD.

Nintendo-related Happy Meal toys are nothing new iirc. I think they had collaborations even waaay back when.
And honestly, Amiibos should probably be about half the price that they actually are. They remind me of 500yen gachas.
He really is. WTF were they thinking.
Wouldn't the kids they focus tested him on have gotten scared?

I thought MK8 meant Mortal Kombat 8.
But Mortal Kombat isn't made by Nintendo, is it?

I never had problems buying them separately, I went crazy over the Minions and Pokemon ones in the last few years.

Given your size, I can understand your excitement for Happy Meals
*big boot*
WTH, Nintendo has been making Happy Meal toys for literally forever. I got these when Super Mario Brothers 3 came out.
Kind of strange to put the MK8 promo items after its release instead of before to build hype.
I know they were used to do that, but that happened a long time ago, while this is actually a return, which is good.

Do Happy Meals still come in those boxes? All I remember of them were the awesome Mario Bros. 3 Happy Meals, which were covered in graphics from the game. They totally flipped me out as a kid, especially since Mario 3 still hadn't released yet so it was one of the few things I could fixate as I waited.
