Last week, we brought you a rumor that McDonald's was dusting off and reviving one of their most beloved Happy Meal toy concepts of all-time: The Changeables.
This week, we're bringing you the confirmation:
Don't know what a "Changeable" is? Don't worry, this Dinosaur Dracula article has got you covered.
Hey, even with the skyrocketing cost of fast food these days, these are still more affordable than anything Hasbro is putting out, right?
But better than a teaser, Donocropolis has shared a variety of images from McDonald's own social media to our forums showing off each Changeable, what they turn into, a catchphrase, and a fun fact about them. Hey, remember when Hasbro used to give us that kind of stuff on the box, or at least a website?
Man, McDonald's is killing Hasbro with these, and they aren't even out yet.
Anyway, the pics:
Gotta say, these will probably look great alongside a collection of BotBots. Just a shame they didn't make one of the restaurant itself. Okay, granted, then it would just turn into a grey box, but maybe they could do a vintage-style restaurant like the Lil McDonald's collection did? Just a thought.
And make it in Titan scale.
Anyway, these will be available in US stores on January 27th, but which ones go to which other countries is anyone's guess, because they like to screw with us like that now, I guess. (Nothing for Canada so far... sigh.)
Feel free to talk about these, or just the good times and great tastes you remember from your youth over in the "McDonalds Changeables Return!" thread in our forums!
