| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (739561) Posted by Inevitable Betrayal on July 2nd, 2008 @ 10:09pm CDT Starscream looks laughable, but the rest aren't that bad for Happy Meal toys. I personally don't plan to pick them up, but if I had kids I might swing by. | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (739571) Posted by timothyVritchey on July 2nd, 2008 @ 10:17pm CDT as far as transformers go they're atrocious (but all transformers happy meals go) as far as happy meals go, lugnut isn't bad. | |

| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (739854) Posted by Wheeljack35 on July 3rd, 2008 @ 9:17am CDT I know there not great looking but I want them all | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (739862) Posted by Sunstar on July 3rd, 2008 @ 9:26am CDT Inspite of Starscream's inability to transform, I think I want him :P He's cute in robotmode. | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (739867) Posted by Mirage22 on July 3rd, 2008 @ 9:36am CDT It's funny how the Deluxe Bumblebee uses a fake roof when transforming, while the McDonald's toy actually uses its real roof. | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (739871) Posted by imotron on July 3rd, 2008 @ 9:46am CDT Well I rather wait for something different... enjoy them | |

| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (740223) Posted by UltraPrimal on July 3rd, 2008 @ 4:07pm CDT No, thank you. And I agree, that Starscream is laughable. It's like hes trying to do the looge(sp?). [size=50:1od8utw8]No seriously, how do you spell that winter sport where you slide down a long tube on your ass?[/size:1od8utw8] | |

| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (740548) Posted by Hip-Hoptimus Rime on July 3rd, 2008 @ 9:52pm CDT I read on the Happy Meal site that the release date is "around" July 5; has anyone seen any yet? I'm buying them all, prob an extra of a couple for my daughter. Altho I was showing them to her on the site, and she kept wanting to see the Littlest Pet Shop ones. Girls, honestly... | |

| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (741786) Posted by Megatron's Lapdog on July 5th, 2008 @ 7:54pm CDT Just picked up the Megatron at my local McD's today. It's a cool little toy. Not much on the transformation, but he's displayable enough. They didn't have Starscream :-( | |

| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (742636) Posted by DevastaTTor on July 7th, 2008 @ 12:59pm CDT Oh my, Starscream looks like he just falls over and then flies away. Does that even count as a transformation? | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (742666) Posted by JTKranix on July 7th, 2008 @ 1:23pm CDT I picked them up this past weekend. They really are not bad for $1.06 each - the McDonald's I stopped at charged $1 per figure without the Happy Meal and 6 cents tax. I have picked up much worse KO's at dollar stores. | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (742761) Posted by Megatron_Wolf on July 7th, 2008 @ 3:00pm CDT I picked up Megatron today when i got lunch and hes not bad for a happy meal toy. The only problem was they charged me $2.60. I dont know if it was because it was at a walmart McDonalds or if thats just how much they are over here in NY. Can any one confirm the price so i know if i should just go to another one or if it doesnt matter. I have $10 left on my gift card and i want to get the best value out of it. | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (742792) Posted by GadgetMeli9685 on July 7th, 2008 @ 3:37pm CDT I just bought an Optimus for my friend because she's a fangirl. He didn't look completly right to me. But it's not bad for a cheap happy meal toy. I can't wait to buy Stars and Bee for myself. | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (743615) Posted by Seibertron on July 8th, 2008 @ 1:03pm CDT just finished getting all six. This is the 1st happy meal set that I've completed since the Beast Wars 96 figures. I plan on adding these to the galleries because I actually like these little guys for what they are. | |

| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (743721) Posted by Highbeam on July 8th, 2008 @ 3:26pm CDT Stopped at the local McD's today and they were selling the toys for $0.90 + tax. I was fortunate enough to get a Starscream (despite his lazy alt-mode :P ). | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (744056) Posted by transformers_man on July 8th, 2008 @ 10:40pm CDT i had to use my coupon at toys r us cause walmart and target wouldnt take if for a voyager cause the price is uner the required $19.99 | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (744703) Posted by Valandar on July 9th, 2008 @ 6:58pm CDT I got all except Lugnut today... | |

| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (747906) Posted by *Soundwave* on July 14th, 2008 @ 6:54am CDT $1.59 each here, still cannot find Starscream, the one I want most. | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (748444) Posted by formerly nortagem on July 14th, 2008 @ 10:41pm CDT Sounds like several of our friends up north are getting ripped off! Still $0.99/fig down here... | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (749085) Posted by Megatron's Lapdog on July 15th, 2008 @ 7:25pm CDT They're charging $2 bucks a pop here in Ohio, that's what I paid for the Megatron. Fortunately, I got the OP for free 'cause the wife likes a 6 pc and small fries lol. If anyone wants to trade a Starscream for OP, please let me know... | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (749110) Posted by Powersa on July 15th, 2008 @ 8:01pm CDT Starscream came with my happy meal today. Not bad. | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (750060) Posted by Megatron's Lapdog on July 16th, 2008 @ 11:11pm CDT Managed to get a Starscream today. I hate when people look at me funny for just buying a toy and asking for a bag for the coupon lol | |
| Re: HappyMeal.com launches Transformers Animated promotion (751641) Posted by Luketroop on July 19th, 2008 @ 6:36am CDT They look ok for Mcdonalds toys. | |
