    What was your favorite lego happy meal promotion growing up?

    • @todddavis2041
      @todddavis2041 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Matoro from the Bionicle Tohunga (Matoran)promotion. Though i got Jaller from the 2006 promotion which i also liked.

      I still have the green race car from the racers series, but I guess I’m the odd one out on the LEGO Batman toys. I still have the Robin and Joker figure. The figures actually have a cheat code to unlock a character early printed on. For example, the Joker figure gave you the Tropical Joker character. I personally thought that was really cool.

      Yeah, agreed, especially how Lego in general gotten expensive of late, if only there's a way around with and not make it look cheap or be cheap about it, so who knows, also the same applies to Hot Wheels and such, right?

      @@bradwhite5884 I feel like the main reason that Lego is so expensive as of late is because the vast majority of sets are licensed, which naturally spikes up the price. The only themes I'm aware of that aren't Licensed these days are Creator, City, Technic, Ninjago, and...I think Friends is still a theme? if not that, then some other girl-focused theme. And those themes tend to be a fair bit cheaper than their Disney/Nintendo/Minecraft licensed sets.

      It annoys me how whenever my siblings want a happy meal, we just end up bringing a cheap, useless and ugly looking chunk of plastic meant to resemble a very generic (possibly marvel reject) character that's just going to become yet another thing to pick up from the floor, that will also VERY likely just end up being thrown away into the trash by accident.

    The Bionicle McToran were the peak of Lego Happy Meal Toys. In general, Happy Meals were at their peak in the late 90s and early 2000s, before they started giving cheap plastic or paper.

    I remember the LEGO McDonalds toys from 1999. This was the first time I saw them doing LEGO toys at McDonalds and it was enjoyable to get all of those sets and mix around the parts. Although I do remember one night, I had one of these sets outside and I was up in a tree, then one part fell off and landed in the leaves below and I never found it. We did have plenty of spare parts so I just used one of them. I did also get all of the 2001 Tohunga sets and today, I have just about every Bionicle set that ever came out except the system sets that came out from 2005-2007 and my bedroom is pretty much a Bionicle museum new. I also remember the Galidor sets and I had gotten all of the ones released at Mcdonald's and some of the larger figures from stores, but after a while, my interest in them faded. I did get all of the 2006 Bionicle toys from McDonalds and one from the 2007 series, but none from the 2008 series. The ones I do have are now buried within canisters that my larger Bionicle sets came in and I do not know which canister each one of them is in. Maybe at some point I'll dig them all out and if I can find the remaining ones cheap online, I may consider completing this collection for collector's sake.

    I think you nailed how the later bionicle happy meal toys felt, it was an easier gateway for something we didn't quite understand or weren't ready for. I remember loving my crappy little Pirakas and then only having Hahli. I remember making them fight as a little kid, but I also remember the days were I'd be out on the back porch, listening to the CD of songs my parents burned for my sister, Move Along was the only song I really liked from it and my parents never burned a CD for me.

    Then there are those LEGO Batman toys of the minifigs/vehicles that were so cool to me b/c 1, LEGO, 2, McDonalds, & 3, I LOVED LEGO Batman/LEGO in general when I was a wee tot. I was bummed at first that they weren't real LEGOs, but I quickly got over it b/c I still thought they were cool & were related to my favorite toy/franchise so all was well in my book.

    It wasn’t just happy meals that got in on the act. Lego group made the US exclusive set 3438 McDonald’s Restaurant. A small boxed set which depicted a small McDonald’s restaurant at minifig scale, made from actual Lego bricks.
    The set also featured a small car and two minifigs, one of which had a stickered torso depicting a McDonald’s employee.
    I still have a copy of this set too, though it usually goes for over $100 today over on Bricklink.

    I actually had one of the Galador Happy Meal toys (it’s actually one of the ones you got the blue shirt one). I remember getting it back when it was around and I got it at a McDonalds location that hasn’t existed in almost 14 years. That being the Disney Spring or at the time Downtown Disney location. It’s just one of those memories from that location of going to Downtown Disney it’s night time you go to the Lego store then you eat at McDonalds right next door. Hell it’s how I remember when I got my first Lego Star Wars set.

    3:24 I'm surprised that, for the printed pieces, they specifically used the Klasky Csupó designs for the McDonald's mascots, from the _Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald_ VHS series, instead of their regular ones. Maybe the cartoon was popular enough back then to have the LEGO Happy Meal toys have its design alterations on them? Maybe a cross-promotion between the series and the toys, or synergy between Happy Meal products? I don't know. Certainly makes it clear that specific iteration of LEGO McDonald's toys was from the 90's specifically, though.

    Yeah, Lego Happy Meals were peak era of my childhood and peak era for both companies, this also goes to Hot Wheels Happy Meal toys and Matchboxes too, but shame what happens to them now and looking at happy meals now, only good ones now is Pokémon Happy Meals where you get Pokémon cards from such, if only Happy Meals have proper Lego sets like back then and proper Hot Wheels cars too, then maybe they'll succeed with kids or us adults trying to relive our childhood and such, they should learn what they succeed with the Pokémon promotion and apply it to others, but knowing McDonalds, well we all know why, right?

    I honestly love the lego batman one. That might just be because 2008 was the most hype year for gaming for me outside of maybe 2018 due to both smash bros brawl and lego batman, but as a kid I was so excited for that game that pretty much any piece of merchandise relating to it was something I needed. Really though, the only one that I think I really like now is mr freeze because batman, robin, and jonkler are kind of boring character picks, and I do think the 2006-2008 line for bionicle were technically better, but I still think lego batman's my favorite of the group.

    iirc, the biggest nail in the coffin for happy meal toys was Burger King, and a child suffocating on a Pokeball lid. After that, things got a lot stricter for happy meal toys, more so than the choking hazard that inspired the 3 and under toy line. Granted this is a foggy memory from almost 20 years ago, so grain of salt and all that.

      @@MyBrickOpinions yeah true it’s too bad that there’s no physical Lego in the McDonald’s toys anymore I think it might have to do because McDonald’s were less big than they were now back when Lego appeared in happy meals more often, so because they got bigger over the years the people that want happy meals made will probably have to pay lot of money to get happy meal spots because it gives a lot of promotion. That’s why Lego only had happy meals made for promotion, the recent, happy meal but also I think the chances of getting physical Lego is slim because every time I see a McDonald’s toy it’s big and chunky to prevent choking hazards and when there is small pieces, it’s always like cardboard. Maybe it might have to do with more regulations in the recent almost 20 years, but really other than the reasons I gave I think the biggest one is Lego doesn’t need promotion for their brand. They’re at the point that they’re so big that McDonald’s promotion won’t boost sales. That’s why it was for the film to get around that there’s a film out you need that for films, I mean Lego is the largest toy company out there so until LEGO makes a new movie or needs help promoting some big thing similar to a movie that would be the next time there will be a McDonald’s toy related with Lego.

    The later year LEGO toys weren't LEGO, they were just LEGO branded. The Bionicle lines after the first one counts as not LEGO since they weren't compatible with regular LEGO. Even if they aren't standard pieces made by an outsourced company, they should have some connecting area that is compatible with standard brick or Technic pieces.

      it's in the cards, I've actually bought some of the sets from dino thunder and spd, but there's so much to cover from the mega lines and I have a list of other failed themes i wanna do before but I'll definitely have the PR one done by march

    I'm a huge LEGO fan but I can't purchase it as it is extremely expensive where I live, if they released sets in Happy Meals I'd get as much as I could but I get why they don't after watching the video.

    Looks like lego got too cheap with their offerings and only gave McDonalds a bare minimum funding.

    I think the advent of moulds killed the chance for System sets to be packaged with McDonald's. Even before the decline of physical toys, I bet there was always a concern for smaller elements to be mistaken for food. Or perhaps somewhere along the line, someone argued that it'd be whatever to do one big thing instead of a dozen small things, so Lego was unable to make the old part sets.
    Even if they still did the bricks, I don't think kids would have enjoyed getting a handful of brightly coloured bricks with McDonald's people on them, because how will they be able to integrate it into the smaller scale car they've already got?
    I think the path Lego has taken was the lesser of all evils. There's probably too much at play even before "the smartphone generation" started eating there.

      I recall during the Inika line, after getting Hahli in my happy meal after a night of bowling with the Boyscouts, that because I and my best friend at the time battled so long with our little guys, the scoutmaster's wife went through the effort of learning which character was which so she could get us the full size models as pack incentive stuff.
      The day I was able to earn a full size Hahli, because I was able to play with the miniature one was an exciting day for younger me. If I was able to get "the big one" after getting the smaller Bionicle toy in a $5 meal, then I'm sure there are plenty of kids nowadays still getting into Lego because they got an Angry Unikitty thing from McDonald's, or whatever.
      [[[Heck, even outside of Lego, Happy Meal toys are basically free advertising. Work was abuzz about The Masked Singer there for a while because some kid left a happymeal toy behind, and it led us down a rabbit hole.]]]

      Oh, yeah, and I'm sure there were plenty of reports to Lego HQ about kids chewing on the regular System bricks back in the day, which is why all of the Tohunga are engineered that way. And they probably even got some complaints about those too. Or even complaints from AFOLs about locking out exclusive prints and moulds behind "things aimed at kids."
      Lego would rather cut a contract than cut a throat, so of course the LEGO Happy meal toys advertise Lego, rather than contain them.
