My Little Pony fansite Equestria Daily is reporting that McDonald's Happy Meals in March will feature a new wave My Little Pony toys and more importantly Transformers Prime toys.

Apparently another wave of ponies is planned for March 9th (though she told me not to quote her on that exact date), along with Transformers on the boys side. They don't know specifically what characters/designs will be available, but she did say they usually try to release new sets, so hopefully something awesome pops up.

I'm going to get so fat that month, as I want all the toys. Part of me hopes that the toys are terrible so that I can just ignore them.

This is where legends/legions class figures belong. Not on the shelves in toys stores posing as real figures.

Why is a "my little pony" website reporting on Transformers stuff ??? A little disturbing...

They're not, they are reporting on the girl's side of the promotion which is MLP toys. They just happened to make mention of the boy's side TF: Prime toys.

If there's anything like the original transforming burgers, fries, and drinks then I'm sold.

You should ask if you can buy the toys seperately. In most places they do. They're somewhere between $1 and $1.50 a pop where I live in the North-East. Someone told me Canada sells them for $1

Not a bad idea, I hadn't thought about that. It's certainly a lot better then getting a ton of Happy Meals.

This is coming from a former McDonald's employee:

You can buy the toys separately! Back before 2009, you could buy the toy for a price of $1.06 each.

Apparently since they are both managed by hasbro, fans of TFs are somewhat fans of MLP. How does that work? I don't know. But look around Seibertron, i spotted loads of MLP fans of tfs already :lol:

Kind of disturbing if you ask me. So basically they are "Hasbro fans" ??? Just because I eat at Burger King doesnt mean I have to like everything on the menu...
